I just hope he doesn’t become a Harley or Batman character
Why don't Wonder Woman villains get any respect? Why are they never used? Why are they never adapted in movies and tv shows? Why, oh why? Whine, whine, whine, whine......
Wonder Woman villains are finally used in other media: "I just hope they don't become (Insert other DC Franchise) character. Waah!"
Anyway, good showing for Dr. Psycho in the third episode of Harley Quinn. Looks like he'll be a regular character for the rest of the series. Giganta appeared in the episode too, sporting her JLU design; And the Queen of Fables if you count her as a Wonder Woman villain. Best exposure some these lesser renowned villains have ever had and yet all some people...
So what do you think Dr. Psycho in Harley Quinn so far? It seems like they toned him down Dr. Psycho, made him more a goofball than a monster in this series, which is good choice, given how not funny he is in the comics. In this series, he got massively criticized for using the C-word, got dumped by the Legion of Doom and now he is a henchman who acts as a temp for other villains like Bane and Bane is presented as a massive idiot in this series.
And Tony Hale is good at playing a silly version of Dr. Psycho.
Also Cheetah shows up as a background character, apparently the only female members of the Legion of Doom before Harley joins, she seems bored during Legion meetings and apparently Lex Luthor cannot be bothered to remember her name.

The latest, greatest Wonder-villain sighting is Circe in JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK. The Witching War finale, even the last three issues (17-19) were better, than any story, published in the WW comic, since Greg Rucka. Furthermore, it seamlessly cinches creepy, New 52 Circe to Greg Rucka's cosmic, Who-ish Circe in a way that satisfies fans of BOTH!
The Witching War retells Circe's classical origin, with a comic-invented tweak that makes her obsessed with Hecate and sets her on the path to villainy. We've needed to see the struggle that led up to Circe's going dark, a story, which shows why Circe deserves her revenge, and this story accomplished that.
Check out JLD #18, when you can.

COMBINING THE BIGBADITUDE OF THANOS WITH CHEETAH'S FEROCITY, IS JANUS WONDER WOMAN'S GREATEST SUPERVILLAIN?...on WONDABUNGA!!! Look alive, Kangaliers!
I want to see more of Circe's struggle.
I want to see the Olympians chase her and the other Titans into Tartarus and other worlds, other galaxies...other dimensions! I want to see her mourn or decry the persecution of her elder Titans, some of whom were good and caring to mankind, ..as she flees one alien world for another, wondering how long she can hold out...
Vowing revenge!
Might this new Circe have been a protectress of mankind, in classical times - a superheroine - before her people turned on her? Might her husband have hated her, jealous of her people's celebration of her?
And it's all her story! No ham-handed attempt to tie her into Diana's background. Yay! I don't need Circe to be Diana's disgruntled nanny to make her a viable antagonist in a WW comic.
I never imagined I would be a champion of Circe, after seeing so many years of wasteful, clutter stories, forcing her down our throats, as editorially appointed archenemy. If this new Circe in JLD is to be the standard, I think the search for Diana s nemesis is over.

hmm... if you're going there.... have her team up with Deva! Or maybe in this version create Deva from the fading essence of slain Titans?
Just read "Witching War" again...phenomenal outing for Circe and makes the case for her being undisputed archnemesis. Suspenseful, epic, impossible to put away. The best Circe story, ever...
Will go so far as to say that it almost makes up for WOGs.
It's the grandest outing of any WW villain, since George Perez's "Challenge of the Gods".

Strife appears in the next Harley Quinn episode, sporting her Chiang look.
I have to say, I didn't expect that a Harley Quinn show of all things would have the best showing for WW villains in outside media...ever?
Have we seen Ms. Debbie Domaine lately?
