Superman and Wonder Woman / Kingdom Come

Used to think Wonder Woman and Superman were a poor match, just because of her supernatural origin vs his extraterrestrial origin. But after seeing this Youtube video that reminded me of the Kingdom Come graphic novel, I am rethinking. And yes, I really enjoyed KC, but I don't like Alex Ross' style as much as Jim Lee or highly detailed styles (brace for impact, two seconds to hatesplosion from trolls :) Oh thank God, openminded readers!) -- just a style preference and I still enjoyed the art, as with the plow he pulls, etc.

But back to these two -- one of the delights of the Justice League: Unlimited show was seeing the two of them deal with threats, although they never had many team-ups. I think I got the biggest laugh out of the Wonderbabies episode because of how Batman and Wonder Woman got on in it as kids, with Superman clueless. But when you think about it, they make so much more sense together because of how exotic their powers seem to each other -- there is something for each of them to admire about the other through the long centuries ahead for both of them.

Both are powerhouses who love others first and foremost. Whether you cal it Kalana or Dianel (do the math...) they make quite a team, neither quite able to fathom the other, but they're both from separate worlds trying to make their way in ours.

Maybe it's why Superboy and Wondergirl worked so well -- hey, no boos!
