RKMBs Forums .::Robegories::. Comic Books is ww REALLY one of dc's "big three"?

its definitely true that, for some of her 60 years, wonder woman stuff was produced partially just so WB / DC (or whomever they were at the time) could hold on the the respective copyrights.

so, in that respect, it truly is simply an homage to the history (or potential future).

but, tho she's not as succesful as many other DC heroes, id still state confidently she's a 3rd of the big three. those who actually purchase and follow comic books and their sales might know better, but this wouldnt make her any less an icon! (and her icon status is assured, even by things as "silly" as the tv show, or the wonder woman shot glasses that filled the shelves at the former WB stores).

but, to the comic fans... why if its "so obvious" that she's one of the "big 3"... is she simply not one of the "big 3"?

a movie would be a big help, but no guarantee ( if you think sandra bullock would be bad for the character, im sure you wouldnt wanna talk to the steel fans about shaq ).

justlice league seems to be her greatest gift. the comic book (at least when the current series first began) gave wondie immediate attention, more than likely the most comic book attention she's received in... ever? excellent exposure. and, of course, the cartoon, JL, is an amazing outlet for her (figuring on 2-3 million who turn in and see her, 3 times a week).

but has any of this really carried over to her title? can she hack it on her own, without the aid of the other big names on the team? is her current title too different from the wonder woman we get in JLA or JL? if jim lee and jeph loeb took over for a year, would that turn things around?
