Some common tropes include the 'strong female character' being defined primarily by physical strength, sexualization of costumes, romantic subplots overshadowing their heroic actions, and the 'secret identity' often revolving around a romantic relationship. While these tropes are being challenged, they still appear in some stories, highlighting the ongoing need for diverse representation.
