Ha.

Haha.

:rofl:

I wonder what this huge Conner/Cassie shipper I know will say to this. Me? I don't care. The only Wonder I want to know about in any relationship is Diana. Which makes me feel sad for Donna. But not Cassie.

I noticed that this picture has Cassie with cascading wavy hair that I’ve never seen her have before. Why?

I just want Wonder Girl to leave the team. She reminds me of those bitchy blondes you know and hate through High School. She's stinking up the Teen Titans book with her bitchitude.

Probably just to stylize the cover.

Were they tryin' to make her look like Diana or something? Kinda seemed like that to me since Diana's kinda got wavy hair like that as well.

Man, I like Conner. But why, why her? :arg:

Young Justice. The two had an ongoing flirtation there, so the two as a couple is a pretty firmly established thing. So I sadly suspect that no matter how bitchy she gets, Conner will be stuck with her.

It's pretty simple why. For ages people have been pushing for a Superman/Wonderwoman romance, but DC would never do this as Superman has a long standing romance with Lois and if they broke that up then no relationship in the DCU would have a chance. When young justice rolloed out, they realized that they could do the second best thing by hooking the Jr's up.

I quite frankly don't care for either of them and hope they will be perfectly happy together (as happy as their shallowness will allow)

However, I bet this is how they are writing Wondergirl out. They are probably going to move her to Adventure comics with Conner. In fact, I bet this move was planned before deciding to move BB and Rae back to the old team. I'm sure that Once Jhons got Adventure comics he wanted Cassie to be there (he really liked them as a couple) That left a leadership void for the Teen Titans and then I bet they decided to use Beast Boy to fill the void.

If thats the case, I commend them for re-introducing BB several issue before hinting to Cassie's departure. Most the times something like this happens, The new leader shows up in the same book where the old leader leaves and it always feels so convienient. So good call here (if it is the case)

Five page preview.

Covers changed too; the one that was changed for #83 is now on this one.

They really need to make up their minds on these covers.

You know, I find thats a really REALLY big themes with some comics actually. Any Elseworlds story that comes out the majority of the time Wondy and Supes end up in some relationship together through varingy means ranging from convuluted to interesting.

Kingdom Come for example, Lois had died years before and the two get together as they whip the new heroes into shape. But other elseworlds I've heard of or read, they do the same thing. Red Son, Act of God, its kinda like expected.

Elseworlds about Superman or with Superman? Oh well this is a perfect opportunity to stick him with Wonder Woman!

It doesn't bother me, its Elseworlds, but it gets old. Wish they'd, you know, mix it up a bit. Then again, most of the time Elseworlds are just silly stories that seem more like company authorized fanfiction then anything. So maybe its just the majority of shippers finally being given a pen and told by the company "Go nuts".

See this is the dangers of shipping, the people grow up and obtain ridiculous amounts of power over the fandom universe! It's a god complex! A god complex! They hold the keys to the kingdom! AHHHH!

Anyway, my own question, if lots of folks keep clamouring for Wondy and Supes together, and theres a good portion Elseworlds stories that make those dreams a reality why does Marvel's equivalent of Elseworlds "What ifs...?" have a similar trend? How many crazy Black Cat/Spidey shippers are there? Why aren't there more stories like that in "What if...?" is it because What ifs are usually more darker and more forboding then Elseworlds usually ending on a bittersweet or sad ending?

Marvel doesn't do a lot of What-If's these days, so it's a moot point. They have maybe two or three what-if specials a year, but these days they always focus on "what if event X ended in a way different from canon ending Y". Smaller stuff like "what if Mariko hadn't died" or "what if Spider-Man hadn't discovered the black suit was an alien" just don't happen anymore.

The most AU stuff I can think of that they do right now is the Noir line and the MAX books.

DC's stepped back from Elseworlds as well. I can't even remember the last one they did. The Kingdom, maybe.

I guess you can only do so many What ifs before you run out of ideas.

I mean, "What if Venom worked at a taco joint?" just doesn't have the same panash as "What if the symbiote got to Frank Castle?"

Hmmm, fire extinguisher!?! Never seen that pop outta Vic.

Anyone else feelin some kinda AS vibe from the quipping in the issue? Cause this banter seems about as dull as the last one, while at the same time, sounds like something AS Robin would say during battle.

"Big bully with little brain"!?! Is that the best they can come up with??

That is horrible quippage man, just horrible.

Well at least they aren't annoying adding "boy" to every juxtaposition in a vaqin attempt to make it an insult.

Still, lame ass banter make me sad.
