Wonder Boy, Wonder Boy! You're a Wonder, Wonder Boy!

Wonder Boy by ~superleezard on deviant ARTI was watching the movie Wonder Boys (love that film) when the name Wonder Boy got stuck in my head. Sometimes I fixate on an idea and the only way to stop thinking about it is to draw it out. The whole time I was designing this I kept thinking that if Batman can have a Batgirl and Superman can have a ( Read more... )

What powers you ask? I dunno, how 'bout the power of flight? That do anything for ya? That's levitation holmes. How 'bout the power to kill a yak, from 200 yards away... with mind bullets! That's telekinesis, Kyle. How 'bout the power... to move you?

I like the version on the left better; for some reason short sleeves/bare arms really bug me in (dude) superhero costumes; besides, it really needs the blue on top to balance the pants. Also, it's a nice contrast to WW who shows a lot of skin for WB to show almost none.

Good designs, m'friend!

D'oh! Didn't read it carefully enough to realize it's all the same design, just with an outer jacket. Still think it looks better with the jacket on.

I love dominos too. There's something just classy about them.

I think I prefer the jacket on, but there's something very Cassandra-Wonder Girl-ish about the other design that makes it work.
What's his crazy battle armor look? Every Wonder family member needs their armor.

You're right, there would be no end to the shit he'd get. But it would be interesting to see the character as some unshakable guy on a mission.

Of course, DC doesn't have the balls, and you know it. They created "OMG Lesbo Batwoman!!1!" about three years ago, and have yet to do much with her character (excluding the upcoming Detective and Justice League stuff, since it hasn't started yet). She never even met Batman, unless that happened in something I missed. If they created Wonder Boy, he'd generate hype, make a few appearances, then disappear for months at a time. They'd never take the time and effort to develop the character.
You should go work for DC and slap them around.
