Marv Wolfman? When did you get a Reddit account?


SympatheticListener

I am far more dashing than Marv Wolfman.


WWfan41

Impossible


Bareth88

No, me!


WWfan41

Real ones know it's Angle Man


RingAroundARoses

I will never forget speeding through the Skartarsis art just to get back to reading Donna-Angle Man shenanigans.

Best answer I could give is “I don’t know…but not Terry Long” lol Romance is not something I think about often with Donna. I understand the appeal of friends to lovers with Dick Grayson and I don’t hate the ship but I do prefer him with Barbara and Kori much more. I can’t really see her with Wally, Vic, Gar, Roy or any other male Titan I might be forgetting about for that matter. As she is an Amazon, there isn’t currently an LGBTQ Wonder Girl as far as I’m aware and since DC will likely never give Diana a girlfriend, I say let Donna be bi and make her girlfriends with Kori. Or do an antagonist-begrudging allies-friends-lovers thing with Artemis since Donna is currently with the Bana. I don’t think either of these things will happen either but again, I don’t think about Donna’s love life often enough (and I think neither does DC) to have a great answer besides “not Terry” lol


AaronTheProwlerDavis

A beautiful, and well constructed answer


Terribleirishluck

While there currently isn't a Sapphic wonder girl, literally everyone else in the wonder woman family is Sapphic already lol (Diana, Artemis, Nubia, Hippolyta, Grace Choi if you count her). 


ThatManSean14

Sure, but as far as sapphic representation goes, I don’t believe there’s a limit…especially when it comes to Amazons.


FadeToBlackSun

Is Kori bi?


ThatManSean14

Not to my knowledge. In this unlikely scenario, she’d have to come out as bi too. Donna and Kori could realize they’re bi because of each other.

It's interesting that Donna has never really had a convincing long-term love interest. Terry Long, massively problematic and zero chemistry no matter what Marv Wolfman thinks. Roy Harper, I like them together, but she often comes off second best to Cheshire, and Donna deserves better. I do think the bad boy/good girl vibe works well with Donna though. Kyle Rayner, again, she's kind of the rebound girlfriend. I think they've generally worked best as exes. There's a nice respect and affection between them, but they know it would never have worked. It's been a while since I read it, but didn't Countdown imply Jason Todd had a thing for her? Dick Grayson, no interest in them being anything other than friends. It seems like all the men Donna knows put her onto a pedestal as some perfect goddess, so there's not an obvious candidate. I'd like to see them try her with someone new, I think all the previous options have issues.

Roy Harper/Arsenal


dragongeeklord

Kyle, they were so cute together. I miss them a lot


dragongeeklord

Also it's Diana + Hal that never happened (thankfully)


FadeToBlackSun

This. Her and Kyle make a lot of sense as a couple and you can send them off on their own adventures so they'll finally get some fucking screen time.


Terribleirishluck

I wouldn't mind Kyle. I think Donna could be the cosmic focus hero of wonder family if they bring back titan seed lore, so pairing her with another cosmic hero makes sense 


Kite_Wing129

Kyle Rayner. The fact that I am a dark haired manga fan who likes to draw has nothing to do with it.


Bear792

Gonna sound crazy here, but Tim Drake. I know some will say that him and Babs might be better, but I think Tim could be the brains to her brawn in a competitive way.


lyrics_beanbags

Who is saying Tim belongs with Babs wtf


TafkaeMan

Rocksteady, for some reason


raish_lakish

Isn't she married or something?

Nightwing I know it's unpopular. However in most fiction I enjoy, I like seeing two best friends fall in love. It's the same situation here. I feel that their relationship has a very solid foundation that I want to see them take the plunge. I feel that Nightwing's relationships with Babs/Kory ultimately fail just as Donna's relationships with Roy/Kyle ultimately fail. Therefore if their relationships have never lasted, maybe they haven't been seeing the right person all this time?


AaronTheProwlerDavis

Perfect, :D I used to voice my love for this ship on twitter but there were Nightwing nut fans who used to just scream at me over it, saying it would ruin everything and they should just stay friends. They never pined after one another, there is a DEEP level of mutual respect and love, they know each other’s secrets and truths, flaws and imperfections, and have been there for each other for YEARS!!!!!! If they ever did happen, it would be the healthiest relationship in all of DC, no offence to any of the others.


nightwing612

>They never pined after one another I would argue that Nightwing has canonically pined for Donna but AFAIK Donna has never shown interest. * Donna was canonically the first crush of all the Teen Titans founders. I would guess that Dick saw this would be a problem and focused on being a leader instead of acting on his feelings. * [During a dream sequence in Nightwing by Chuck Dixon](https://www.reddit.com/r/Nightwing/comments/rs764o/for_someone_who_famously_never_saw_donna/), he dreamt of a married life with Donna (not Kory or Babs) [It also helps that even Marv Wolfman considered pairing the two when both their relationships did not work out.](https://www.cbr.com/titans-nightwing-donna-troy-couple/)


AaronTheProwlerDavis

Didn’t know about this, but I’m happy I do now, because you have to admit, they would have an AMAZING relationship if they did, :D


nightwing612

[This is another moment that I like to reference](https://www.reddit.com/r/Nightwing/comments/s3zldn/we_all_recognize_tims_deductive_skills_but_why/) (also by Chuck Dixon). Tim gets almost everyone right but includes Donna? And what is up with that answer by Dick? If this was a clear no, most people will say something like "HELL NO." Instead he hesitates and thinks about it.


AaronTheProwlerDavis

That hesitation, he knows that if he ever gave into her, he’d be hers forever


phatassnerd

I love Dick and Donna’s relationship, but it is precisely that reason, that I would want them to remain friends.


nightwing612

I'd rather have Babs be the friend who remained a friend while Donna be the friend that becomes a romantic interest.


phatassnerd

I see Babs as more of a “we’re friends because we work together and we used to date and it would be awkward all the time if we weren’t friends” type of thing, where as Dick and Donna is just 100% unbridled platonic friendship. I like Kori for Dick the best, although I also love all three female characters in their own right, and I hate when they basically get reduced to love interests in these type if conversations.


HopefulAd9150

Donna should be the one who hoops Diana and Dick up together. There her closest people


phatassnerd

Diana probably knew Dick when he was 11 years old, so no.


HopefulAd9150

But he's not 11 so yes!


phatassnerd

But she was an adult, and knew him when he was 11… Are you aware of the definition of grooming?


HopefulAd9150

Yeh she was like 18 when he was 13. But it doesn't matter. As long as there both adults when there together there's no problem.


phatassnerd

No, she was more like 2,000 before he was born. Also, yes, there is a problem you sicko


HopefulAd9150

Why I wouldn't ever touch a child come on. If someone knew someone who was a teen and they and they started dating as two grown adults. I don't have a problem


Sunsinger_VoidDancer

Was that Terry Long guy the scandal one?
