[QUOTE=HestiasHearth;6470522]I wish the Wonder family had at least one dude in their ranks. When will DC have the ovaries to finally introduce a Wonder Boy? Or Wonder Kid? Bobby Barnes, we need ya!![/QUOTE]
The Wonder family barely exists at the moment. I'd rather they make Donna, Cassie, Nubia, Yara and Artemis consistent fixtures before we throw in a Wonder Boy.
[QUOTE=Alpha;6470583]Diana is a character made to challenge gender norms. Whatever male character introduced should also challenge gender norms. Personally, Vartox is what I'm looking for[/QUOTE]
Vartox doesn't challenge gender norms. He reinforces them if anything.

But they already have a Wonder Boy: Donald Troy. That's more than enough :p

Ah, Earth 11.
Good times. :p

Wait, what? Wasn't Vartox a male chauvinist douchebag in most of his appearances? How is that challenging gender norms when one of our society's gender norms is that male-identifying people are "supposed" to be aggressively misogynistic like Vartox was?

Then haven't mentioned Bobby Barnes in years I don't think. When was the last time Trevor Barnes was even mentioned?

Oh dude. DC has a bigger chance of bringing back the Golden age Quality Comics character Wonder Boy, than adding a “Wonder Boy” to the Wonder Woman mythology (outside of Earth 11).

I agree. I think Diana having a son is more interesting than a daughter if only because we have so many young women in her supporting cast already. But it's clear that DC and King are thinking about how she interacts with the [I]Trinity[/I] and not her own corner of the DC Universe.
The drama that could come w/her having a son - Amazon wise would be interesting but...with S/B having sons so front and center im happy that it remains a girl.
But she doesn't need a straight up Wonder Boy. She had plenty of males that can join her team and make sense spreading her message.
A boy would be interesting but tbh, I don't really trust most writers at DC, and to be frank most DC fandom, to not want Diana having a son as way of just making the rest of the Amazons sexist.

Waid found another "I'm so clever" story of turning Diana into clay, I presume.

You've never read the 70s version of Vartox have you?

Nope, that's how he was rewritten in the recent decades, but it's definitely not what he was originally.
Writers did to him the same thing that was done to Steve Trevor in the 2009 movie. Suddenly he became a douchebag out of nowhere.
Whenever there's a scandily dressed man that isn't explicitly gay, they write him like Namor.
Same thing happened to B'wanna Beast in adaptations

Not Cosmic Boy, though. :)

I’m so ready for a Wonder Boy, a Wonder Kid and Warkiller returning to the family.
