    With the recent announcement of the new Superman/Wonder Woman series, it got me thinking. How would a Diana/Orion relationship turn out? I haven't read much of the New52 WW series, but I love both characters and love the Greek gods/New Gods direction the series has. Thoughts?

    It wouldn't last longer than a week. Orion's only purpose was a rivalry with Superman. DC had no inention of having him and WW become a couple. I don't where people got the idea that it would ever happen.

    Orion may be a regular in her series but so are a lot of people,that's no indication or excuse for a relationship. I have no clue why people think there is something more to it than what's been shown . A relationship with them would not last three days before she kicks his ass for being a pig.

    @jonny_anonymous: I don't actually read WW, but that doesn't really change anything. Kissing means nothing. They just wanted to mislead people.

    The idea of the relationship was teasingly implied in advertisements of Orion's upcoming appearances in both WW and Superman titles/covers. DC planted the thought for PR.

    Agreed. Even the kiss was a blatant PR move - within the actual story the kiss had nothing to do with romance. The actual explanation for the kiss was pretty flimsy, too - I imagine DC just told Azzarello "make them kiss so we can put it on the cover."

    Meh. That's disappointing. New Gods should have an ongoing or mini-series or something.

    DC comics should be called PR comics. that new 52 channel was very misleading, saying that superman and orion were fighting for wonder woman.

    I want new gods book too, there's a lot of thinks to explore

    I hate her with Superman and Batman. I think her and Orion would be perfect. Wonder Woman is kind of being turned into a whore and Orion brings back the real Diana. My one and only blog post so far on comic vine is about this.

    Orion brings the real Diana? that's a interesting point of view about the relationship.

    I think they are turning Diana into a prize, a trophy to the stronger superhero of Earth. They are trying to make Superman cool at WW expense. "Oh look Superman and his hot girlfriend!". Some tweets from the writer weren't that much inspiring, no big deal.

    well Orion is a lesser known character, it is good to WW.I think there's a lot to work in this relationship, rage/love, power from gods...

    Becka was Orion's wife, he didn't steal anything. And Orion.is.one.of Jack Kirby's best characters, so to say no one cares about him is wrong. The Orion in the new 52 is nothing like the Orion before the reboot, so I have no interest in who he dates.

    This.

    DC wanted to start some speculation to pump up interest and, hopefully, sales.

    Maybe when Wondy and Supes break up, she should take some me-time and swear off romance for a while. There is always a problem with her in romance that fan will always complain about.

    @awesam: So you didn't even read the comics, yet you are making contradictory presumptions. Nice! Love biased people who don't objectively read or even read the comics.

    FYI it was Wonder Woman who kissed him out of nowhere after his innuendos. Although it's interpreted by some that it was a distraction to rip his man parts off, she certainly didn't need it due to her speed and many other ways available.

    Regardless, it is never really focused about in later issues, so I guess it's quite likely DC just meant it as a humourous take or were simply misleading people for sales.

    @kgb725: Post crisis

    Even in new 52

    But I believe a marvel dumbass like you will deny everything

    Not gonna bother with you when pretty much everyone including hardcore ww fans admitted Orion is above her with the expectation of one and two

    And judging your post count you are a stubborn piece of shit

    Why don't he perform better against highborn then ?

    Yea post count is what matters

    @kgb725: How's one person with amp = one person without an amp ?

    It was an amp

    Deal with it

    That's her natural power level without the bracelets. What amp is there exactly?
