    Default Non-Comic Book Villains That Would Make Good Wonder Woman Foes

    For fun, I was thinking about bad guys from outside comics that would make fitting enemies for Diana.

    Gozer the Gozarian from Ghostbusters

    A (made up) Sumerian destroyer god/being that must be summoned via a ceremony involving possession and demon-dogs and can take any form it wants. You know, if you take away the comical aspects of the original Ghostbusters movie, the actual plot involving Gozer is a pretty straight supernatural horror story that I think would suit Wonder Woman very well as she contends with the Keymaster and Gatekeeper and the cult surrounding them before facing Gozer itself in whatever form it chooses.

    Senator Armstrong from Metal Gear Solid

    A corrupt US Senator trying to orchestrate political upheaval so he accumulate power and turn the world into his own libertarian fantasy land. There's potential political intrigue that would test Diana's diplomatic skills, and just listen to his big motivation speech and tell me this isn't a guy who would totally worship Ares. He also injected himself with nanomachines to give him superhuman strength and durability, and as he demonstrates in the game, he isn't afraid to throw down.

    Pennywise from It

    An ancient, shape-shifting Eldritch being that preys on children by exploiting their fears and eating them. Naturally, Diana would despise anything that hurts young kids, and if you've read the book, Pennywise is terrified of anyone who isn't afraid of it. So their battle would be less about a fist-fight and more about her trying to protect children from it.

    A much more powered up Glory from Buffy.
    Keep in mind that you have about as much chance of changing my mind as I do of changing yours.

    Zamasu, from Dragon Ball Super. At first, he'd she her as a kindred spirit trying to bring peace to the world of mortals, but as more of Zamasu's violent and narcisistc nature is revealed they'd inevitably clash. He'd come to see her as an abomination that is miusing the gifts of the gods.

    Bonus points if he become obsessed with her power and tries the Goku Black route.

    Loptr from Bayonetta 2. The evil half of the God of Chaos who hates humans for abusing free will and sees them as irredeemable.



    God of War's versions of Odin and Zeus could also qualify being even more despicable than the comic version.

    Castlevania: Nocturne's version of Erzsebet Bathory would also qualify, being a blood-sucking aristocrat who spoilers:
    drank the blood of an Egyptian goddess
    end of spoilers.

    Oh and her final form looks like this:

    She's basically what writers should be doing with spoilers:
    Cheetah
    end of spoilers.

    Catra from She-Ra is already basically Cheetah.



    Likewise, the She-Ra copycat Golden Girl also has some great villains that would be fun to see battle WW, with the pink-haired Dragon Queen being the baddest of the bunch.



    I'd love to see Diana take on someone as powerful and self-destructive as Callisto from Xena.

    Fred Krueger. I've had the idea of various DC/Marvel heroes paired off against classic Slashers/Movie monsters and Freddy would actually be one that would slide well into superhero comics.

    The Beast was the guy with the horns, right? I could see that.

    Yep!


    Jasmine would also be a good villain. I dont think they really have Diana fight against those who have a warped sense of peace that often, something that she fights for.

    Does it count if they're from a manga? Because I think most Sailor Moon villains would fit:

    Spectre Sisters:



    Death Busters/Witches 5:



    Galaxian Empire:
