WONDER WOMAN FAMILY! Who's In It And Why? Do They Get Their Own Comic?

[Mel Dyer]

There's definitely a crackling of interest, in several threads, recently, ..in seeing Donna Cassie, Queen Hippolyta and other Wonderverse denizens interacting with each other in a single comic. While it hasn't been a concept, since the Gail Simone run - hasn't been a comic BRAND, since the Kanigher Sixties - the Wonder Woman Family is a very real thing to WW fans, ..but, what is it, exactly?

Who is in it? Just Diana and her sisters? Will male characters - heroic Hercules, Mister Genie, Prince Jason, Achilles - be counted?

Do you think they deserve their own comic? Who would read it? How do you think it would do, commercially?

My picks are probably a little idiosyncratic. The Wonders, as I see them are characters, created for use in the Wonder Woman comic ..or so closely associated with the comic that we fans might consider them honorary members. I also followed the WOGs model; if the Wonderverse finds itself in a Crisis-level battle, who shows up for the fight?

Wonder Woman
Etta Candy
Steve Trevor
Ferdinand the Minotaur
Donna Troy
Artemis
Wonder Girl
Queen Hippolyta
Prince Jason
Queen Desira of Venus
Mala
Nubia
Hercules
Achilles
Mister Genie
Fury

Who is the Wonder Woman Family, as see it? think about it, for a minute...

Who shows up for that iconic battle, when the Wonderverse is burning, and it seems all hope is lost? Which Wonder-related heroes will choose to spend their final, harrowing moments, fighting at Diana's side ..to decide the fate of the world?!

I think Sensation Comics could be revived to feature stories, built around various Wonder-related characters. Rather than an anthology comic, I think the new SC could revolve around different Wonders - two issues with Troy, another two with Artemis, one with Hercules ..and another with Fury or Jason.
