==Controversy and ridicule==
Madam Fatal was never a popular character given the cross-dressing angle,<ref>{{cite web|author=Brian Hughes |url=http://againwiththecomics.blogspot.com/2009/03/madame-fatal-golden-age-transvestite.html |title=Again With the Comics: Madam Fatal: The Golden Age Transvestite Superhero! |publisher=Againwiththecomics.blogspot.com |date=2009-03-10 |access-date=2014-05-14}}</ref> which is perhaps part of the reason why DC Comics decided not to further run with the character and limited him to light-hearted jibes made by other comic book heroes. Quite ironic, in hindsight, given the number of mainstream costumed superheroes they have retroactively branded as [[gay]].
The character has often been ridiculed, such as in an article on [[Cracked.com]] which listed the character as one of the "7 crappiest super heroes in comic book history".<ref>{{cite web|last=O'Brien |first=Daniel |url=http://www.cracked.com/article_16547_7-crappiest-super-heroes-in-comic-book-history.html |title=The 7 Crappiest "Super Heroes" in Comic Book History |date=14 August 2008 |publisher=Cracked.com |access-date=2014-05-14}}</ref>
