Another piece of comic book history that came from the Lost Heroes documentary that I didn't know of was the story of the first Canadian Female Superhero: Nelvana of the Northern Lights.

Pre-dating Wonder Woman by a few months, Nelvana debuted in Triumph-Adventure Comics 1 and tells the story of Alana North. North was born of a union between a human woman and the Inuit diety known as Koliak the Mighty King, King of the Northern Lights. Her Northern light based powers are used at first against the Nazis during World War II and later in Sci-Fi stories. Her brother Tanero would assist her on her adventures in the form of a Great Dane.
