[QUOTE=Frontier;4148098]I think I spotted a pre-transformation Cheetah in a "Get to Know: Wonder Woman" video for the upcoming [I]DC Super Hero Girls [/I]reboot:

At 0.52 you can see a blonde girl in a ponytail and fur coat giving Diana the stink eye. If you squint you can see the name on her test is "Barb," as in Barbara Minerva.[/QUOTE]
Good eye! That's definitely Cheetah! Very cute.
-
Is there a TPB in the new 52 that has the Minerva Cheetah origin in it?
-
A blond Cheetah wearing a fancy fur coat whose envious of Diana besting her in athletics and in studies.

This is still one of my favorite panels of Barbara Minerva as the Cheetah:

The Cheetah is very primal and also very powerful. She is my favorite Wonder Woman villain. I hope WW84 portrays the character well.

I like this panel too... I would love to see it created on the big screen... it would definitely be a powerful moment in the film.

Cheetah's going to play a role in DC's initiative "Year of the Villain"!

I'm thrilled to hear this! Any additional details?

Looks like Cheetah is getting a push. I’m happy for her, hope this coming Year of the Villain really gives her a boost.

It does seem like she is getting a bit of a push which IMO is long overdue. She really is a great villain and like you I hope Year of the Villain does right by her.

With Bane's part of the promotion being connected to King's Batman, and Bendis's stuff with Leviathan getting a mention, I wonder if Cheetah's portion will be written by Wilson? Maybe it will be part of JL Dark?

I wouldn't get my hopes too high. snyder is involved. He had Cheetah getting one shotted by batman in jl. From a blast of a lex luthor's special suit i know, but still bad. She is supposed to be powerful enough to trade blows with Diana, and they had her going down that easily? DC hasn't shown a lot of respect for her villains or WW herself. So i won't expect much from this. At least the cover will probably look great.

To be fair, Cheetah had taken Diana out right before that happens. Which means Diana was even weaker than Batman in the Lex suit.

Well it would be pretty bad to be Cheetah and WW, and be weaker than that luthor's suit. But DC doesn't respect them so everything is possible. But Cheetah fight with Diana wasn't even a fight. Cheetah attacked her with her claws that had the power of tear of extinction, while Diana was doing something else with her guard wide opened. Yet in the next scan Diana is standing up and looking fine like nothing happened. So it anything, that was a good feat for Diana's healing factor.

Unfortunately everyone must job to Batman, that’s simply how it works. But if Cheetah manages to come out looking competent overall I’ll still be content.

If batman and his verse will be involved. She won't have a big chance of looking competent overall.
