These Defender vs. Defender toss-ups are killing me.  Ultimately, I'd rather live in a world with more Valkyrie comics in it than Moondragon ones, so I'll go with Val on this one, but Moondragon is such a quirky, arrogant, interesting character it's hard to choose against her.  And she did work alongside Spidey, Marvel Boy, and Paul the Gorilla from the Electric Company to defeat Dr. Doom and his planet-devouring Star Jaws.  For that alone, all the Earth owes her an eternal debt of thanks...!

And Michael, you may be confusing Moondragon with Mantis regarding the marraige thing.  Moonie was in the running to marry a representative of the Coati, become the Celestial Madonna, and give birth to the Celestial Messiah, but Mantis lived that destiny and left Moonie without a purpose for a while.  She's sought a defining role of cosmic importance for herself ever since.  I have somehow missed the bit where it was revealed she's lesbian, however... It seems odd since she has been shown having been intimate with Thor.

No, that was Mantis, Moondragon is a lesbian. She stole Rick Jones' wife away from him for a while. I kidd you not.

That's right, my mistake. Her very arrogance may have been the reason Mantis was chosen. I remember her insistence and incredulity(sp?) at Mantis being chosen over her.

BONUS TOSS-UP (10/14):

Moondragon or Mantis?

No, you can't have both.  Find a couple real women.
