Oh good lord, I've become one of THOSE fans...
Herein I complain at the idea of Wonder Woman's antagonists getting a win. Ever.
Classic cranky Wondy fan, can't stand to see her lose? What happened to me? Well.
Darkseid invaded Themyscira, killed half the city.
Maxwell Lord & Batman (HER sorta, kinda EX-BOYFRIEND!) built abominations to invade Themyscira, killed, I dunno, a quarter of the city.
Circe conned the Amazons into war with the U.S.A.
Ballesteros & Psycho turned Nessie to the dark side.
More recently, there was Genocide doing some freaky damage.
And you think "her rogues" are lacking a win?
How often do you think her "rogues" need these "wins"? And after we spend 10 months on the epic tale of Wondy losing, what do you want, a two-month break where the hero can win a couple, maybe half of one?
