[QUOTE=LadyP;4467307]
Yep.
No matter the efforts, it cannot be destroyed. SMWW did not just arrive, and people continue to gravitate to them due to their core values.[/QUOTE]
Because from the very beginning, the motivation for Wonder Woman was to be the answer and counterpart to Superman. The connection starts from the root and the relationship has evolved into this huge tree with branches going in so many directions. That symbolizes the many possibilities of SMWW. The relationship is unique and has the gravitation it has, deep meaning and value because it’s not traditional, it’s not what’s expected. It’s a relationship earned and developed in ways now are trying to be replicated.
[QUOTE]And the tea is quite good. 😌[/QUOTE]
LOL!! 🤣
[QUOTE=LadyP;4467341]This is interesting news. Well, we will eventually find out what that means regarding the bolded and especially for SMWW whose connection which has been in existence for many years was essentially wiped out.
There is no real emotional connection to these characters any more for many fans due to the mish mash that has gone on. So I can only hope they certainly do see the light.
Now regarding the other comment about pet characters and failed/aborted plans, I'm just going to go ahead and have another cup of tea ☕️.
It is quite delicious indeed.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, obviously trying to replicate or mosh mash didn’t work. They really need to take the time to examine and understand why SMWW is important. The have a joint character/relationship history collection book coming out. So much obviousness with everything that comes up with SMWW that doesn’t with other dynamics that one would think would.
-
[QUOTE=LadyP;4467268]LOL. Similar to "iconic" the term "popular" has become so overused that it has lost its impact and its meaning greatly diminished.[/QUOTE]
Sadly true.
[QUOTE]I actually want this to happen. 🤣[/QUOTE]
Maybe, it's already happening. It's just that we don't see how is body-painted the person behind the camera. 😜
[QUOTE=LoveStar;4467313]Yep! And come on! It’s a great idea just like all my other abstract crossover ideas 😜[/QUOTE]
Yeah, sure. DC should consider doing a full book about it for the Zoom/Ink line. 😅
[QUOTE]Not everybody is going to like or agree with everything. But if a certain something be it comic concept, music, movie, sports, sport teams etc... is liked by a vast majority, you can not deny the popularity PERIODT[/QUOTE]
About SM/WW popularity, read this old article: [url]http://www.criticalblast.com/articles/2015/07/01/supermanwonder-woman-winner-2015-stan-lee-excelsior-award[/url] Ah, the good ol' times.
[QUOTE]Exactly!
Imagine the wave for holiday/special occasions [B]especially Halloween would be even bigger than it already is![/B] 😅[/QUOTE]
I don't like the thought of that. 😰
[QUOTE]Well I mean the movie verse is already an embarrassment so might as well tell the truth and own it! This is why you don’t put all eggs in one basket until it’s guaranteed to be a success all around![/QUOTE]
The way their movieverse influence the comics is so blatantly obvious that they don't even need to talk explicitly about it, it's in front of everybody's eyes. But I highly doubt that, right now, they could come out and say that questionable choices of a divisive bomb of a movie played a huge role into what was an overhaul of a franchise. Maybe, you could get some hints in a private chat on a con.

I think their "revised timeline" will come into play after DC's next "Crisis" event that, last time I checked, was set for late 2020/early 2021. They have plenty of time to reconsider everything.

LOL. Although Romita is going to get crucified for daring to have fun and embellish what's actually going on in a scene (surely Superman is not actively going to try and kill Bruce and I'm almost certain there will be some line afterward with Superman telling Diana he was gonna pull the punch, haha).

Superman and Wonder Woman has clearly solidified the name of “Power Couple”. Just like “iconic” or “popular” being used as buzzwords and just thrown out, SMWW is truthfully and genuinely acknowledged as the “Power Couple” upholding the meaning.

LMAO!!!! 🤣 OMG! I can’t wait to see this! I’m thinking more and more or maybe it’s a given and obvious, this is Superman’s perspective with the DK universe. So what was written with Batman will be obviously different, from the fights, arguments and whatever else occurred. I believe this should’ve happened a long time ago to balance it out. Superman will be getting the upper hand in most cases instead of Batman.

We saw a bit of this with DK3, Bruce’s revelation of Clark just holding back etc anyway.
Yes! Very interested to know Clark’s first impression of Diana.

SMWW Vol. 1 deserved the high praise it received. Soule truly knew exactly how join their worlds, find the balance, respect both characters and treated them as the equals they should be written as. A growing relationship that was very much real to resonate with the readers but still wasn’t on an extraordinary level, embracing Kal and Diana’s unique heritages as an Alien and an Amazonian DemiGodess.

Ok... the motivation isn’t to help :confused: and what is said to go isn’t helping, not making a difference etc etc... :confused: backwards, counterproductive mindset that’s destructive to the business overall.
