    Default Which villain from Wonder Woman Annual #1 would you like to see return?

    Heinberg brought a lot of villains back in the 2007 annual, but they really only served as fodder. Who would you like to see brought back into the spotlight under Gail?

    (Cheetah, Giganta, and Doctor Psycho not included in the poll, plus no Doctor Poison or Doctor Cyber since apparently Gail has plans for them?)

    If I had to pick only one, I'd go with the Duke of Deception. I've been waiting for him to get an update for years. But I think there's potential in so many of them.

    While I'm a big Silver Swan fan, I went with Angle Man. I was first introduced to him in the Donna back-up story Jimenez did during his run. I've been curious to see more with him ever since.

    They used him in Catwoman's last series too, although he was decidely different from the hot dude that was lusting after Donna. lol I've rationalized it in my head as being two different people with the same codename/power.

    I never picked up any of the last Catwoman series, despite loving most of the 1st (1993) series. They ended that on such a horrific note (Bronwyn Carlton should never be allowed to "write" again!) that I was kinda put off by Selina for a long time...

    But Angle Man's cool. What issues did he appear in? Are they worth tracking down?

    Oh, yeah. Bronwyn Carlton made it very hard for me to get through any of those issues. LOL The 2nd series is awesome though, especially everything by Brubaker. I thought Pfeifer, as controversial as he was, was a decent follow-up but his Catwoman was just too different for some fans.

    I believe Angle Man appears in issues 46-58 and then issues 70 and 71. I will warn you that he's definitely different from what Phil wrote. He's much more vicious, obsessed, and nasty.

    I've wanted to bring back Minister Blizzard for years -- I think we stuck him in the future sequence of CAMELOT FALLS in a cameo. Or at least, I know I stuck him in, but I don't remember if Carlos drew him in.

    I'd also love to do something with Mouse Man, Paper Man, Kung, Astarte, Trixter, the Dark Commander, Warhead and Mr. Genie.

    Among others.

    We had a new version of the Duke of Deception, Anton deKeptos, ready to use in the first arc of TRINITY, before TRINITY became a year-long single story, but things changed.

    Though, she couldn't be Diana's aunt this time.

    Or could she?

    I voted for Osira, Gundra, and Clea. I'm all for Wonder Woman's book being one where religion and mythology clash with contemporary times. The straight-up superhero stuff doesn't work as well for me.
