Teaser for DC Superhero Girls: Hero of the Year.......Wonder-spin sighting!

**Vanguard-01** · 08-23-2016, 01:29 PM

This is a teaser for DC Superhero Girls' first DVD movie: Hero of the Year. Diana features prominently in it. Fans of the Wonder-spin transformation will like seeing Diana do it here. We also get to see a little Wonder Woman diplomacy in action with Big Barda!

I love this show so much. I've only seen season one, but is Diana as prominent in season two, as she was in the first?

Yep. She's pretty much the leader of the entire school by now.

She's starting to share screen time with Supergirl and Batgirl and some other characters like Katana are getting some more screen time. But Diana is definitely still one of the main players.

The character I could stand to see a little less of would be Beast Boy. So obnoxious. There are so many better and more interesting male characters to whom they could be giving more screen time.

I'm really glad to hear that. Ever since the first episode, I've considered this an ensemble show starring Diana. Kind of like this show I loved called The Good Wife was an ensemble, but also had a clear protagonist in Alicia.

If you find him annoying, I'm sure I will too. Definitely not looking forward to that.

Speaking of other characters, I'm surprised they didn't include Black Canary or Vixen. Throwing in some more WW characters like Donna, Artemis, Giganta, or even Steve would be cool. (Unless a few of those characters have shown up. I can't remember xD)

Giganta has made an appearance but i forget which season

That's pretty much what's happening in this show. There's a core of important characters, of which Diana is one, and a whole mess of supporting characters that just kind of come in and out as needed.

If you find him annoying, I'm sure I will too. Definitely not looking forward to that.

If you like his Teen Titans, Go! characterization, then you'll like him here too. He's literally the same character. He's even voiced by the same actor. Starfire is also starting to talk like her TTG persona. ("I am the sorry.") So yeah, if you don't like him there, you won't like him here either.

Speaking of other characters, I'm surprised they didn't include Black Canary or Vixen. Throwing in some more WW characters like Donna, Artemis, Giganta, or even Steve would be cool. (Unless a few of those characters have shown up. I can't remember xD)

No Black Canary or Vixen yet, but they could easily be introduced in time.

Steve has recently appeared. He first appeared in the graphic novel, I think. And he definitely appeared in a recent Poison Ivy-centric episode. He appears to be a waiter or barista of some café where the students like to hang out. He brought Ivy a glass of whole milk when she asked for skim, and got attacked by Ivy's pet plant. Diana had to rescue him, natch.

Giganta has also appeared twice. She's not a student at Superhero High. She's just a full-on villain Diana has had to stop from robbing places on two occasions.

No sightings of Donna or Artemis yet. I'm kind of surprised we haven't even seen Hippolyta yet. When Diana won Hero of the Month, that would've been the perfect time to have Hippolyta make a quick appearance talking about Diana's new accomplishment. Hero of the Month episodes usually include commentaries from people who know the character. Commissioner Gordon got to talk about Barbara when she won Hero of the Month. I guess they just couldn't get a camera crew to Paradise Island to ask Hippolyta for her thoughts.

I haven't gotten to watch it yet, but I believe Hippolyta is supposed to be in this movie, and voiced by Susan Eisenberg

I just got done watching my copy. Hippolyta's definitely in it, but she's voiced by Julianne Grossman, not Susan Eisenberg.

Still awesome, though.

And Steve's in it too. And there was a red-haired Amazon on Themiscyra. May have been Artemis. Sadly, she didn't speak, nor did Diana address her by name.

For Hero of the Year? Yep.

I picked up my copy at my local Target. Strangely, they only had the DVD version. Not sure where one would find the Blu-Ray.

The DVD is also a good investment because it has pretty much all of Season 1's episodes in the Special Features.

**richalex** · 08-24-2016, 10:33 PM

This was a fun little movie. They should make this a full series, not just shorts on youtube.

**Adekis** · 08-24-2016, 10:34 PM

Who the hell decided to make Amanda Waller a principal? That's just asking for trouble!

This is a lot of fun! But I have to fast forward through the theme song.

**Primal Slayer** · 08-27-2016, 09:41 AM

I wonder why they've left out Black Canary from this series

**Largo161** · 08-27-2016, 10:21 AM

I could kinda sorta get into this...but that costume Diana is sporting...ugh.

Eh. They're probably just holding some characters back so they can bring them in later.

Since the show began, they've introduced Supergirl, Batgirl (Barbara Gordon was in from the start, but she didn't become Batgirl until recently,) Big Barda, Steve Trevor, and Amethyst.

They'll get around to Dinah, I'm sure.
