Am I the only one who is cranky about this whole Nightwing and Starfire are meant to be!!!!!11 crap that has suddenly come up?
Because if Dick is going to end up with anyone who isn't Tim or Bruce or Clark or Roy it should be Barbara, damnit! Isn't it bad enough that Batman/Wonder Woman isn't really canon except in the freaking JLU cartoons? I

Even if he does get back together with Kory, it'll just be because... Um... Her hair's vaguely red?

On the other hand, Wally's are green...

In that case, Dick has just been momentarily distracted by Kory's breasts and giant hair. *nods*

I'm sorry you are sad about comics? :( *snuggles*

I'm not actually sad, just sort of baffled. I like to complain when I'm sleepy.. don't mind me. *gladly snuggles*

Frankly, MJ's development as a character and the Peter/MJ relationship has been so fraught by authors with differing opinions and random plotline intersections that it's a wonder they have anything remotely coherent, much less one of the cutest pairings in comics. Knowing that, I can't really say they were Meant to Be because they ... weren't. It happened beautifully and organically, but a few pivotal stories' difference and Peter would be married to Gwen or Felicia, or still single.

I haven't been reading comics (to this degree) for that long. And I know they're on-going and must be kept fresh and interesting, so couples form and endure and break up and get back together and so on and so forth. But I guess I figure if there ever was a true ending for the Spider-Man comics.. like, all the way until Peter's death (and no, not a fake out where he isn't really dead) or old age, I would hope he would still be with MJ.

I'm used to television slash, where you often have to ignore on-screen pairings in order to 'ship your couple, so the prospect of having to do it in the comics doesn't bother me overmuch.
Of course, Koriand'r has also grown on me a great deal ever the last year. Ten or twelve months ago, this trend would've had me livid; now I actually have neutral-to-warm feelings about Dick and Kory getting back together. Even if they do, it won't be permanent, though, I'm sure. There are passing few relationships in comics canon that are that solid.

Actually, if you could read my reply to Lori below, I'd appreciate it. The continuity with Dick is confusing the hell out of me. Did he leave as Nightwing in "Nightwing" only to Batman, or is Outsiders!Nightwing a different entity? I don't understand. *cries*
