Superman (2nd Series)


 

 

No. 5 Synopsis: This issue begins with Superman’s dream. After his first meeting with Wonder Woman during the Legends mini-series, he cannot get her off his mind. In his dream, he is battling giant robotic dogs. Suddenly, Wonder Woman flies in and helps him to defeat the dogs—they make a good team, knowing each other’s next move without words. Once the battle has ended, Wonder Woman goes to fly off, but not before Superman grabs her hand. Pulling her back to him, they stare at each other before Superman goes in for the kiss…only to awaken from his dream before their lips touch.

No. 661 (April 2007)

Superman 80-Page Giant No. 2 (1999 - takes place after WW #140 and 141) Synopsis: This Special consists of several Superman stories including a section with Wonder Woman that ties in from WW 140 and 141. There are some issues for Kal and Diana to face, after sharing a fantasy type dream induced by Oblivion where they had fallen in love, gotten married, and were expecting a child. Both appear to be trying to pretend it never happened but Diana cannot seem to shut her feelings out. It angers and frustrates her. For both of them there appears to be some residual feelings that cannot be repressed. When Superman visits, they talk and then Diana shows him around her new home in the Wonder Dome. They stop in her Garden of Dreams. This chamber taps into the subconscious and Diana feels it will clear the air for both of them. She tells Superman to close his eyes and his secret thoughts will manifest themselves via the crystals in the garden. He does so and, to both their astonishment, two embracing forms emerge. Superman is holding a woman whose face the reader cannot see. It is unclear who it is but Superman's reaction is strange as he tells her almost defensively "Diana, that's Lois. That is an image of Lois " as if he is trying to convince himself more than her. Diana caresses his face and then sadly says,"I know." They part on easier terms and Diana feels the inner conflict leaving her but knows she still has feelings for him. That she cares for him and to Wonder Woman "that is no weakness at all."

Superman: Our Worlds at War : Secret Files and Origins #1 (Aug 2001) Synopsis: Although Wonder Woman appears on the cover, there is no story in this issue that contains her. She is only mentioned on a profile page for the “Allies of Earth.”

Superman: Secret Files and Origins (2005) Synopsis: Although this is really not an WW/SM story, there is an interesting Trinity parody in this issue. The first story, titled “Superman is Weak” tells about a class of young students that is doing a report on what they like about Superman. Of course, there has to be one that does not like Superman. One young boy is a Batman fan, and another is a Superman fan. And a young girl is friends with them both.
