[QUOTE=LadyP;4690259]This makes me smile.
Yes to Lara honoring both her parents by wearing both of their symbols. Love it!
I like how Jon and Lara seem to communicate and understand each other well without uttering a word. Looking forward to the sibling interactions. I expect that Lara will be fiercely protective of him as her mother is no matter how powerful Jon is as a toddler.[/QUOTE]
I really can’t wait for the dialogue! Lara has Diana’s fierceness. Jon as a super-intelligent toddler already has confidence and chill swagger. The art is just fantastic! Grampá conveys so much even without dialogue.
[QUOTE=LadyP;4690266]LOL. Why is Superman being such a hater? 😏
Or maybe he just wants to be kept in Diana's mind more frequently...😉[/QUOTE]
Ha! I bet it’s the latter! 🤣
[QUOTE]Right?!
I think I like it equally as much as the combined logo. It just proudly displays her heritage. I like a lot.[/QUOTE]
Whether it’s separate logos or combined, as long as both are equally represented even in personality is all that matters.
[QUOTE=LadyP;4690270]The texts/messages that go with these personalized Lego SuperWonder posts are trying to put me in my feelings. So sweet and heartwarming. These posts and so many others continue to reaffirm what we love about this pairing.

Oh!!! This is very good good news! Would like for this to lead to more SMWW projects of their own though.
And...Hmmm? The underline. That’s quite interesting.🤔
Master Race did sell 440k copies. Its a great thing of course having facts and that SMWW is a success when it comes down to it... but yeah definitely not understanding what’s so hard about letting the concept be the success it is then?
Also, seriously anime is the way to go, especially with Grampa’s art really giving the feel. Its a platform that can really let ideas run wild and there’s no limits especially for Superman and Wonder Woman.

How can one be blind to the fact that Gal and Henry make a beautiful, excellent, imposing and sexy figure together? How blind can you be to the fact that SM and WW are a perfect match? That they fit well? I believe that in simpler times, from entertainment to real entertainment rather than to group therapy of complex beings like we have now, times when villains were villains and not "poor victims" of their desires and society, we would have a starring movie for both of them and it would be a huge box office hit!

What I am loving about SMWW's children is their personality! They are not just bad copies of Superman, they have the combination of Superman + Wonder Woman with the added development of their own personality! They have begun to trace their own path from the first minute of life ... carry with pride and responsibility a heavy legacy? YEA! Being the children of SM and WW is no joke, it's fairness, truth, honesty in every corner of the multiverse and other planes ... I understand that writing such characters can be intimidating to certain limited writers but not to geniuses like Miller!

I'm sure that even in the current "less simple times", a SM/WW movie would be a huge box office hit. Thanks to Marvel, the general audience is used to and look forward to team up movies. As well, the typical story structure of a SM movie isn't working anymore for the lack of a novelty factor to hook the audience. However, a SM/WW movie could ed up being a welcomed novelty for the audience.

SMWW has proven to already have its own brand. Their joint book sold, merch as the “Power Couple” sold. What’s needed is realizing the brands’ worth not only SMWW together but then as individuals as well.
