    Only fun fact I have in this regard was that Reign, the Worldkiller villain from Supergirl's rogue's gallery, was originally going to be a reimagined Maxima. Got changed at the last minute though. I would imagine its only a matter of time though.

    Just don't let Goyer near her, or he'll say she's a white porn star.

    I think Maxima should have been used to lead the Worldkillers. It's not too late, actually.

    Maxima was one of my favorite characters from the Post-Crisis Superman books. I don't want to see a crappy redesigned Nu52 version.

    He might have finally pushed it to the point where I'm not going to see the movie. Kurosawa will be pleased if that's the case.

    Maxima is cool. I'd like to see her make an appearance in the new 52 ... I'm sure she'll turn up sooner or later

    What exactly is so cool or interesting about Maxima that she'd be worth revisiting? What's her best story in the Pre-Crisis and Post-Crisis?

    I want Maxima back as well. She was a really great character.

    I do hope that, when they do bring her back, they rewrite her somewhat so that she isn't exclusively obsessed with marrying Superman. I like the idea of her being attracted to Superman and playing kind of a temptress role with him, but she's the queen of a massive star-spanning civilization. She should have larger and more impressive ambitions then JUST getting into bed with Superman.

    I like the idea of her starting out as a villain, but then eventually becoming a hero and defending the Earth, as well. Maxima was at her best right around the time of her death, in my opinion. Her death was a noble sacrifice for a world that wasn't even hers. Truly worthy of a woman as strong as she was.

    With Superman with Wonder Woman, it would be particularly amusing to see Maxima wanting Superman and competing with Wonder Woman. Though, again, I would like to see Maxima becoming a hero and even a friend to Diana.
    Though much is taken, much abides; and though
    We are not now that strength which in old days
    Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are,
    One equal temper of heroic hearts,
    Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
    To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

    --Lord Alfred Tennyson--

    How was she great?

    I don't find petty catfights amusing.
