I've just realized, is Jeannette the one and only badass French character in comics?
In my experience, French characters are always portrayed as jokes in comics, but Jeannette is seriously hardcore.
...May I ask for a non-mafioso, competent Italian character who doesn't say "mamma mia"*, now? And I mean a character who is actually Italian, not one who has got a little bit of Italian blood from one ancestor (sorry, Zatanna).
*Note the double "m" in "mamma mia". If you must use an annoying stereotype, at least spell it right.
