Wonder Woman - Four Cheetahs?

[Dr. Poison]

With Diana's expanded history now cannon in the DCU and the initial success of Batman: Three Jokers, I'm wondering if now would be a good time for DC to publish a Wonder Woman: Four Cheetahs book which covers Diana's history battling the four people that have used the name Cheetah over the decades: Priscilla Rich, Debbie Domaine, Barbara Minerva, and Sebastian Ballesteros? What do the rest of you think?

Of course it could be done by the same creative team of Geoff Johns and Jason Fabok or they could switch Jason out for someone like Phil Jimenez, Nicola Scott, or Gary Frank.

The issue the two most popular are Priscilla and Barbara. The others aren’t. In Joker all three are more popular

Meh. If the 3 Jokers thing works it's because there's the element of surprise and mystery because we've always believed it was the same guy.

A Cheetah rumble really doesn't have anything to offer. I certainly wouldn't trust Geoff Johns to handle anything with Wonder Woman's mythology.


And...just speaking for myself...I think the whole 3 Jokers thing is dumb anyway.

This book wouldn't be about the Cheetahs fighting each other but rather Diana's various battles with them over the decades along with showing how the mantle was passed on(or stolen) from person to person. I wouldn't say no-one cares about Debbie Domaine. She just hasn't had much spotlight since the original Crisis. Geoff is well-known for taking Silver Age characters, dusting them off, and making them successful for modern times(i.e. Sinestro, Nekron, Black Manta, Ocean Master, Black Adam, isis, and even Vibe).

The only Cheetahs I think there'd be an interesting dynamic to explore would be Priscilla and Barbara.

Yeah but Diana and her world usually been something of a weak spot for him. He got better with her characterization as the New 52 went on but his revamp for Barbara wasn't the best and his main contribution to her world aren't the best with Grail and Jason.

Maybe have someone.....some new mysterious character, or maybe an old foe........do an introduction of sorts, talking about each fight, and then showing a reprint of the fight, going through all of the fights covering all 4 Cheetahs with commentary about the "hows", "whys", on WW, the Cheetah in question, etc.

Personally, I'll love more "Year One" type adventures for Diana and Barbara Ann. I don't mean literally, but I would love to see more of Diana and Barbara Ann's dynamic before she turned into Cheetah. Maybe there could be some tragic dramatic irony with the book beginning with Barbara Ann becoming Cheetah but then rewinding to see our two heroines teaming up to defeat Ares, Circe, The Doctors, Baroness Von Gunther and a whole cadre of Diana's rogues. For me, that would be more interesting than characters who are long gone, erased and replaced in the Wonder Mythos. It also wouldn't feel like a cheap knockoff of Batman while still giving Barbara Ann her own compelling narrative as a villain.

Batman teams up with Barbara Gordon and Jason Todd. All 3 of them were hurt bad by the Jokers once. Who are Wonder Woman's Barbara and Jason? Is Urzkartaga behind all the Cheetahs?

Three Jokers is literally Metal Gear 5- The Phantom Pain with three 'body doubles/ impersonators' instead of one.

Huh?
What three Jokers are more popular? All I have ever known is one Joker.

[the illustrious mr. kenway]

I think it could work as a "twisted family" idea. Urtzukuga(?) is the offscreen bad guy and the various cheetahs are his agents. They are his lovers or his children etc.

In my Wonder Woman Series Bible Thingee, I’ve included all the characters that have at one time or another been the Cheetah - Priscilla Rich, Deborah Domaine, Barbara Minerva, and Sebastian Ballesteros.

Priscilla plays a very important role in my telling of the Wonder mythos, but I’m still trying to decide if I should make her into the Cheetah for a few reasons and obviously before Barbara Minerva comes onto the scene. Priscilla and Debbie are still aunt and niece and Sebastian is present and connected to Barbara Minerva in an unwholesome way.
