Miss America is a fictional comic book superhero from the DC Comics universe. She was first created by Quality Comics in Military Comics #1 (1941), and was carried over to DC Comics when they purchased Quality in the 1950s. While the original Golden Age character is in public domain, the subsequent versions created by DC Comics are not.

Miss America is originally Joan Dale, a courageous reporter who had a dream in which the Statue of Liberty appeared to her and, giving her the power to transmute elements, instructed her to battle evil. Joan awakes to find that she now has these powers; adopting a patriotically-themed costume, she begins fighting evil as Miss America.

She had a brief run in Military Comics #1-7, then faded into obscurity to a degree that Timely Comics (later Marvel Comics) soon felt free to create an unrelated character with the same name.

Initially Miss America did not have a super-hero costume, largely using her powers surreptitiously. In later stories she wears a costume comprising a sleeveless red blouse, a red and white striped skirt, and a blue cape fastened with a silver star. This costume continually changes in appearance, possibly because she uses her powers to create it. Following her initial run, later appearances of the character add a red domino mask.

Miss Cosmos has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
