Wonder Woman Rogues Gallery Appreciation 2022

[WonderScott]

I honestly can't be believe Wonder Woman writers have let Kung sit on the shelf as long as they have. He was a recurring villain in various titles in the 70s & 80s and now he's MIA.

Yes, I like him too and I’m happy with how I’m folding into my version of the Wonder world.

[WonderScott]

I Googled Kung and really like his design. I would love to see him reintroduced in Wonder Woman lore. Maybe upgrade how powers a bit, so he can also transform into mythological beasts.

A great idea!

[Mysterious]

I like the original Cheetah Rebirth design more. However, if Cheetah has to have long luxurious, hair, I prefer her to be a brunette or a blonde. I thought the red hair clashed with the coloring of her body.

I love the panels above.

Real cheetahs have longer blonde hair until adulthood so she should like in 84'. It looks so much better that's one thing they got right. Red or darker hair is pretty dumb if shes a literal cheetah. I wish they would just give her spots not these stupid ugly diamond shapes & dark fur ugh. She's had alot of terrible artwork.

I find it interesting that Wonder Woman's own Blue Snowman predates the other (some of them better known) DC Comics cold-powers based villains. And Minister Blizzard, which first appeared in 1948, predates every other DC cold villain except one, Icicle. BS first appeared in 1946, while MB first appeared in 1948, versus the first appearances of:

Captain Cold (The Flash) -1957
Mr. Freeze (Batman) - 1959
Killer Frost (Firestorm) - 1978
Icicle (Green Lantern)- 1947
The Cryonic Man (The Outsiders)-1984
Coldsnap (The Outsiders)-1984
Snowman (Batman) -1981)
Polar Lord (Justice League)- 2002

Interesting that Wonder Woman writers beyond the Golden Age didn't really use Blue Snowman or Minister Blizzard, while Captain Cold, Mr. Freeze and Killer FRost went on to reach substantial levels of multimedia exposure.

[Perseus]

I like to imagine Blue Snowman as a cryogenic iron man type character, who just happens to be non-binary.

[HestiasHearth]

I like to imagine Blue Snowman as a cryogenic iron man type character, who just happens to be non-binary.

I just love that Wonder Woman comics from the forties were already playing with gender ambiguity, gender fluidity, and subversion of gender constraints at a time when it was unheard of for comics (or any media) to do such a thing. Of course it had to be Wonder Woman comics. May the gods forever bless Marston.

So Blue Snowman and Minister Blizzard were DC's first 2 cold powered villains and yet they get used less than some of these others? Blasphemy!

Osira by Alex Garcia.

[Agent Z]

So how should Osira be reimagined?

[Dr. Poison]

So how should Osira be reimagined?

Make her an actual Egyptian goddess bent on peace even if it means subjugating all of mankind & bending their wills to hers.

[Gaius]

So how should Osira be reimagined?

Egyptian god imprisoned by the Bana when they first migrated to Egypt. Make her a rival for Artemis.

[Access]

Are we really going to turn one of the few alien villains in the wonderverse into ANOTHER divine enemy?

[Gaius]

Come up with your own revamp then.

[Agent Z]

Are we really going to turn one of the few alien villains in the wonderverse into ANOTHER divine enemy?

It's not like we're lacking in alien villains to begin with.

[Access]

Just saying that it seems like all her aventures can be traced back to the divine nowdays and would be good to branch out a little

We are not lacking on alien villains in the larger DC universe,but with Wonder Woman specifically?
Very much so

Osira was an alien who came to egypt to use it is as base for her global takeover.She impersonated,or became the basis,of the cult of aton and stablished herself as the only deity.This called the attention of the Bana,who defeated and imprisioned her in the space pyramid she came from,only for her to bem freed in the present day and try again with added resentment and hate in the mix
