    They call it, Wonder Woman.

    She comes complete with a magical transformation sequence.

    Stan Lee would be interesting.

    Frank Miller...yeah...

    You need look no further than Adam Warren's Magical Drama Queen Roxy, to which i can proudly say i own all 4 issues. (was it 4 or 3?) ... anyway, check it out, and while he wasn't on your list I doubt any of them would have done much better than what he did.

    Also I remember Stan Lee in a interview saying he was indeed working on a anime/manga with the guy who I think did the artwork/author for Shaman King, don't quote me on that though but it sounded like a viable collaboration.

    Rogue and Bishop's daughter would be called Discharge, and she'd touch people and drain all or some of their bioelectrical energy out of them causing them to either die or fall unconscious. She could then use this energy to extend her own life, heal herself, enhance her physical abilities (speed, strength, stamina,) or discharge it as various energy beams.

    Karakuri Dôji Ultimo, and I believe they already finished it if I recall right.

    She's called "Zatanna."

    I imagine the basic concept would be pretty similar to that time Italian comic writers did a magical girl story.

    I.E: An ethnically diverse group with a comparable execution yet more western aesthetic than the Japanese versions.
    A Flock of Sheep.
    A Pack of Wolves.
    An Inconvenience of Heroes.

    Amethyst: Princess of Gemworld certainly qualifies, bonus points for predating Sailor Moon by a few years too...
