I really like Giganta as a character, and I feel she should get more exposure; I'd like to see her and Power Girl Mix it up; or maybe even her and Diana. The last time I saw her; was in Final Crisis. Hell I'd like to see her "Transformed" into a hero, I'm not going to go as far and say her own series, but I can see her being an outsider.

This.

I've always kind of liked her. I'm glad she's made an appearance in Secret Six.

I forgot all about Giganta. I do think it's weird that She and Shrinking Violet have the same powers ._.

I could see her as a superhero.

I blame poor characterization for her not getting better recognition , she had a potentially interesting motivation at first when she was brought in Post-Crisis then Phil Jimenez drop the ball and just made her into a generic bruiser. She was genuinely interesting in Gail Simone's Atom series (a great series btw) , and in Gail's hands she could be a real strong character. I think Gail likes her too, seeing as how she tends to keep making appearances in her stuff

^^ This.

I fell in love with Giganta all through out her Countless and numerous appearance in the DC Universe. A Hero turn, especially after losing Atom (Richard Choi and correct me if I'm wrong here), is highly logical.

A C-Level Villain at that.

Bump.

I agree, she needs more limelight, whether as a hero or villain.

As long as they have her remain a villain, I'd like to see her used more often.
I'd also like it if she returned to her classic outfit. The one at the top of this thread sucks imo.

She should be a Bird of Prey. Who doesn't like them a big woman?

I don't know how well she'd suit as a Bird of Prey, I think if anything she'd be better suited to Secret Six.

@Vance Astro: @Gambler:

She's a Villian that doesn't appear as often as say Cheetah.

I just feel like if the matched her up with a "higher ranked Villian" they could explore more possibilities with her. Though i do like her in SS

If she was paired with a high ranked villain, she'd probably just end up as a bodyguard; not really much growth for the character.

Yeah true

Giganta

A villainous vixen with the power to grow into a towering, incredibly strong giantess, Giganta often comes into conflict with Wonder Woman. She seems to be romantically interested in the new Atom.
