Of course, it seems that Meltzer has done away with that, but who knows? He's a moron anyways, so he probably was unaware.<BR/><BR/>But I agree with my fellow posters: WW and Lois Lane: BFF.acespothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16117510484231244079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11737441.post-88289880243950154222007-04-13T08:38:00.000-05:002007-04-13T08:38:00.000-05:00I've been advocating Wonder Woman and Mary Marvel ...I've been advocating Wonder Woman and Mary Marvel hanging out for years now. The only thing I want from a Wonder Woman comic is to see how the Amazons react to Mary's channeling the powers of the gods -- or goddesses, if they do what's right and have the old version of her acronym put back in place.<BR/>I also think Black Adam and Artemis should get together based on much the same principle, but that's another story altogether.<BR/><BR/>Although I really like joncormier's idea of her being perfect in everything but a little socially awkward. Not her fault; her manners are impeccable and she's so naturally charismatic people like being around her...just that no one feels truly comfortable around her. I knew a girl in high school who was actually something like that -- everybody loved her and she was gorgeous to boot, but she never dated anyone because everyone was too intimidated by her. Lots of friends but not many close friends because she was so popular. That would be interesting to explore.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11737441.post-25745270598544923272007-04-13T07:37:00.000-05:002007-04-13T07:37:00.000-05:00Why does she need a pairing at all?

I think it would make a great single issue where she awkwardly tries to make friends with someone - say on Thanksgiving or something when no crimes are being committed.<BR/><BR/>Otherwise, let's have one character who doesn't really need anyone else and be self-relient - but not in the a-hole Batman way that happened just before the last crisis.<BR/><BR/>Otherwise, I vote Aquaman, and not just because this is a site dedicated to his awesomeness.
