    Practically the only thing they haven't tried yet. I don't know why they haven't so far, but at this point, they have nothing to lose with the character. Lord knows trying to make her a physical threat isn't sticking.
    Keep in mind that you have about as much chance of changing my mind as I do of changing yours.

    Only because they are not consistent with it. They have not given Cheeah big feats of power in years, and keep using her vs street levelers. That is the problem.

    I have one question. Where is Emilie? It all started with her.

    If she's been brainwashed by LoL (Lasso of Lies), she could have been recruited to bring in Diana. If she isnt, she should have come to Diana's rescue, fight alongside her. If there has been an Amazon purge, why is she not seen defending her sisters.

    My guess is that we find her in #8 in Sovereign's mansion, shocking Diana

    Steel is working with Sovvy and has been searching for Emilie so why would she be recruited to bring in Diana? She's the big mystery that will help end the arc so she cant be re-introduced yet.

The only thing needed is they stopped using Cheetah as a jobber for batman characers. Nobody that can take hits from WW should be seen sruggling with catwoman or batman in a physical fight.
    It also sucked how they also had Wonder Woman always beat Cheetah easily in every animated feature.

    Is Cheetah still a horror style character that eats people?

    JL Doom gave her a pretty good showing

    Lot less worried about how King will handle Cheetah given issues 5-6 did a pretty good job for the others already brought up.

    Problem is Cheetah gets very lousy feats in animation. That needs to change if we are to believe that she can put up a good fight with WW. The thing is that the people saying Cheetah is never going to be on equal footing with Diana in a physical fight. They forget she does not need to be Diana's equal in strength. She just needs to be strong enough, so that combined with her speed, healing/regenerating ability, and her magic claws and fangs, she can actually be an efficient enough opponent. Like even if Diana could take her out in 3 consecutive hits. That still is much more force than any street leveler could ever dream of taking. The real problem is writers that use Cheetah as a jobber for peak human level, or just above peak human level characters. That is the real problem. It should never happen.

    Yeah. This is why they should either put the character out to pasture or just try a different approach other than being a physical threat. Because no one's buying the latter.
    Keep in mind that you have about as much chance of changing my mind as I do of changing yours.
