In the same vain as Superman/Batman, I was wondering who would be fit to team up with Wonder Woman in a book. I only have two choices to start, in alphabetical order, that have some connection to Wonder Woman which in turn would be great for them to team up:
1) Black Canary
2) Catwoman
Black Canary because she took her spot as the founding member to the JLA post-crisis. And despite changes to Infinite Crisis, I remember a scene from Birds of Prey where they both were training and how they were friends (has to be still there, Post-IC). The Two Dianas, or the two Di's.
Catwoman because they have been together in comic book history, though not as much. Either fighting at one another or together. I remember Wonder Woman during her "I Ching" era where Catwoman was the only supervillian during her non-powered point in her life.
I believe with both of these choices, we're given a similar idea with whom and what Superman & Batman are. Superman is a super-powered hero with a sci-fi origin & nature, while Batman is a human "super" hero with a much more grounded origin & nature. Wonder Woman is a super-powered heroine with an origin and nature thats both mythic. Not only that, you can see her in the Superman role with whom the choices are being the sorta Batman role.
So when it comes down to Black Canary & Catwoman, Black Canary is a human superheroine that uses strength and actual, real fighting tactics despite her superpower which she hardly uses and sometimes, if not most, in her carear didn't have. Catwoman is a human superheroine who is known to switch from being more of an anti-heroine to a heroine and back.
But Black Canary has a team up coming with Zatanna by Paul Dini while Catwoman is part of the Batman Family.
So if there was, or if wanted one, a team-up book similar to Superman/Batman with Wonder Woman, who would you want her to be teamed with?
