Is there anyone know about female superheroes who shrink (except Wasp or Bumblebee) or who fight against giants in comics, cartoons, movies and other media?
Thank You

There's Elasti-Girl from Doom Patrol, in the comics she shrinks out of her clothes at first when she gets her powers. After she controls them she changes size at lot (but like 75% GTS).
Lesser known, there's AC Retro Comics' Miss Victory who gets shrunk to three inches tall by the Vulture.

I'd like to know too. I've read through many FemForce comics over the years, and never have I seen something like that. Though my memory of that whole series has been pretty faded after so long.

The name of the story is "Battle of the Micro-Men", I think it's a reprint or tribute series made by AC Retro Comics, it's issue #2. I saw the description in an eBay listing a while ago, but I have never actually read the comic. It looks available on their website, or at ripoff prices on eBay.
AC Retro Comics #2 : Miss Victory
"
The Vulture captures Miss Victory, Kitten and Yankee Girl and shrinks them to three inches tall."
https://www.accomics.com/product/retro- ... s-victory/
"(...) the future leader of the Femforce, Miss Victory takes on The Vulture, in a size-changing soire set in the 1940’s, and titled “Battle Of The Micro Men”"

Yes! I found it! It's in readcomicsonline, but the site has been very crazy with the pop-ups lately.

I know OP said "except Bumblebee" but this whole arc is amazing, with Bumblebee being stuck shrunken at 5 inches tall, and Rita sharing her first experiences with size change. Check it out if you haven't already.
Doom Patrol vol. 5 (2009)
Bumblebee eventually gets another 3 inches, for a total of 8 inches tall, and lives in a dollhouse. She so cute with those slippers:

Good finds foreverlurk and eddie!
These are great. There's something very appealing about superheroines encountering mad scientists and the like and getting shrunk!
They're usually so full of themselves and confident, it's nice to see them brought down to size!

Yeah, that sums it up nicely.
Also Captain Marvel got shrunk herself

Not *yet* a superheroine here but this nice little story's appealing enough have to share it again:

Didn't get to see much of her but, nonetheless, here's Nun the Less from the head trip that is Xombi.

Not really SW, but, in
War of the Realms - Giant-Man (2019), after an army of frost giants takes over the state of Florida, Scott Lang and a squad of Marvel's giant size-changers—the only people able to disguise themselves as 65-foot-tall blue-skinned humanoids—go in undercover to take down the Jotun from inside. Turns out Moonstone aka Dr. Karla Sofen is being her usual manipulative self and has the giants on a leash and it's up to her old partner-in-villainy Erik Josten aka Goliath (with help from another infiltrator, Cassie Lang) to take a hand and show her the error of her ways.

Just sharing, one-off cover from 2022 but Wanda after running into some Pym particles (no relation to the story unfortunately)

Possible SW alert in Tom King's Wonder Woman, the Island of Mice and Men shaping up to be a major storyline. Can't wait.

Obviously we'll see soon enough (I think the next issue is in September), but GTSCity has reported that Mouseman is normal size and the cover of WW holding a tiny version of the classic villain by his tail is one of those patented red herring comic covers. Plus, there was a stinger at the end of issue 19 showing some men in military gear with mouse ears and one riding one of the giant mice WW fought. Unless the monster mice were experiments in size change, I'm worried we're in for major disappointment.

No, this is all from the issue that's out now (#22) and it's just the prelude to the storyline starting in July. Yes, Mouse Man was normal-sized but it's implied the mice were enlarged somehow. Nothing explicit about shrinking being involved though so far.

I see, thanks for the clarification, I'm a little more hopeful now, especially since I like WWs design here. I did see something else in GtsCity saying his original incarnation intentionally made himself small so if this is some kind retcon then maybe that part will come about here.
