Why is this page just called "Fortune" when the character's name was "Miss Fortune"? I know we don't include titles such as "Miss", but the page also refers to the character with male pronouns so I assume "Miss Fortune" was an alias, an obvious pun on the word "misfortune".

Nevermind, just checked and the male pronouns were added by some editor who hadn't heard the story and the character was actually female. Not sure why they added male pronouns to a page clearly called "Miss", unless they just were thrown off by the word "leader" because women could never be leaders in their mind. They sound like they need to work on their subconscious misogyny. Anyway, I'll just fix that real quick.
