The Short Awaited Sequel …. How many of these women do you even vaguely know the names of? Rules, which will be posted elsewhere soon. They weren’t firmed before, but they are now. The love interest has to be: - Introduced as a civilian love interest - In the hero’s comic series OR explicitly made as a love interest to the hero - Not a hero with his/her own series (exceptions made for members of rogues gallery with a consistent pattern) - Not another hero’s primary love interest - If from another medium, must go beyond one episode/brief movie cameo - No downvoting official castings. If you don’t care for it, ignore it. - Have fun! Not featuring any overlapping characters with other comics, with the exception of Zatanna here? (Sorry that I accidentally deleted her, feel free to cast for her here) and Wonder Woman (featured on Superman’s page)
