10 Questions About Superman & Wonder Woman’s Relationship That We Still Need Answers To
The two have had a long shared friendship together, and on occasions, they have been more than just friends. Of course, there are so many changes to continuity, it can be hard to keep track of everything these two are to one another. These are ten questions about their relationship that need answers:
WHAT IS THEIR POST-REBIRTH CONTINUITY LIKE?
This is the question that a lot of the others are built upon. In 2016, DC Comics relaunched itself (again) under the new Rebirth imprint, as it was revealed that The Watchmen's Doctor Manhattan had been messing with the continuity of the DC Universe.
While major events that took center stage included the return of Wally West and Batman finding the Comedian's classic smiley face pin hidden in the Batcave, there were many major changes to both Superman and Wonder Woman's continuity as well. So the question is just what are they to one another in this new continuity?
DO THEY REMEMBER THE NEW 52 RELATIONSHIP?
Rebirth was just the newest in a series of soft and hard continuity reboots that DC Comics underwent in a five year period, beginning with the events of The New 52--a company-wide relaunch of all its titles. Without getting into all the details, there was a lot of good and a lot of bad in The New 52.
One major element that was polarizing among fans was the new romantic relationship between Superman and Wonder Woman. Rather than Superman being with Lois Lane and Diana being with Steve Trevor, the two superheroes became DC's newest power couple. This version of Superman split up with Wonder Woman and then died toward the end of The New 52, which begs the question, how much of this relationship is even remembered on any level by either character?
WILL THEY BE A ROMANTIC COUPLE IN THE FUTURE?
There are multiple future timelines in which Wonder Woman and Superman become a couple, the most famous probably being Mark Waid and Alex Ross's epic comic Kingdom Come.
The future is uncertain, especially amid the constant continuity changes of comics, but one has to wonder what the future has in store for DC's two most powerful heroes. Fans will ultimately be left wondering the answer and will have to choose for themselves which hypothetical future is most likely, but considering that both Kal-El and Diana are likely to outlive their human partners, one has to wonder if they will end up together.
WILL THEY HAVE KIDS IN THE FUTURE?
Superman has a son, Jon Kent. This shows that Kryptonians are biologically capable of having children with humans. Wonder Woman is much more than a mere mortal, but she could possibly conceive a child with the Man of Steel, something also indicated in the comic Kingdom Come.
Assuming their relationship ever is definitively established as more than just friends, would the two want to have a child together? And what would this mean for these two, their primary partners, and Superman's relationship with his son Jon?
