Max Mercury, from Impulse #17
Captain Marvel, from Captain Marvel Adventures
(Issue number/year unknown. As pointed out by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lodo_bear, this isn't Hitler, but he is a Nazi.
Honourable Mentions
The Riddler, from Catwoman: When In Rome
Not a superhero; he's a villain. But he looks cute in the catsuit, so we'll overlook it.
Jimmy Olsen, from All-Star Superman #4... and more.
While not a superhero, Jimmy is a big DC character that has been in drag more times than the rest of the DCU combined. This page from the Transgender Graphics and Fiction Archive has a comprehensive visual history of Jimmy in a skirt.
Catwoman and the Martian Manhunter, from JLA: The Nail (Elseworlds)
The Martian Manhunter, from JLA #27, "The Bigger They Come"
While it's not as often as a male persona, specifically John Jones, J'onn does morph into women; I felt this was more of in the area of honorable mentions as opposed to actual gender change because he doesn't always shift his brain into a woman's, and this being J'onn, it's all about the brain.
