And Supergirl, Catwoman, and Elektra were female leads in CBMs before. So this completely destroys your "anti-misogynist" arguments about Wonder Woman having "artificial boosters".

If anything, we can say all of MCU got "artificial boosters" 1st from Superman: The Movie (because without Superman: The Movie, there is no superhero genre and no MCU)

Almost immediately after superheroes rose to prominence in comic books, they were adapted into Saturday film serials aimed at children, starting with Mandrake The Magician (1939). Serials such as Adventures of Captain Marvel (1941), Batman (1943), The Phantom (1943), Captain America (1944), and Superman (1948) followed.

Sorry.
Superhero films have been around longer than you think
Your precious DC heroes weren't the first.

Those were low-budget serial movies and nothing like the big-budget superhero movies of today. Superman: The Movie was the 1st big-budget superhero movie (I think it may have had the largest budget of any Hollywood movie at that time). If Superman: The Movie hadn't been successful, then movie studios wouldn't have continued making big-budget superhero movies and the CBM genre wouldn't exist today and there would never have been any MCU. So the existence of MCU is de to the "artificial boosters" it got, 1st from Superman: The Movie and later from The Dark Knight.
