I'm gonna say no to the shacking up with civilians.

>>92474306
Need to see a few more capes stick up with their own kind. Getting tired of the stupid fucking "muh enemies might find you" civilian drama.

That's why Spider-manxCaptain Marvel was pretty fucking cute back in the day, Carol could and would have beat the piss out of anyone dumb enough to try that.

I feel like there's not that many cape on cape couples these days, most individual series have them getting it on with some rando, I guess it's hard to coordinate that stuff crossbook though

Every x-men ever
Thor and Sif
Bucky/Black widow
Superman/WW before the retcon
Batman/catwoman
Nightwing? Batgirl/Starfire
list goes on
There are way more superheroes with other heroes than there are Superheroes with civilians tho. Honestly what should matter more is the story and character interactions.

They should wind up with whoever works best with them.

Lois Lane action figure with bionic leg when

>>92474459
Lois would have been dead years ago if not for her relationship to Clark.

>>92474306

Depends on the cape. Superman with anyone who isn't a normal human is just wrong though

>>92474306
There are pros and cons to both.

>>92474306
Capes should fuck with capes to keep the civvies safe. All of them should except for Spider-man, that dude does what he can.

I think they should shack up with villains.
Reform them with justice dickings.

>>92479071
And there's a trigger on her back for bionic kicking action!

>>92479127
The only good answer.

>>92474569
>"muh enemies might find you" civilian drama.

This is a problem even for super couples. Bullseye killed Electra to fuck with Daredevil and that badguy in Green Arrow: The Longbow Hunters kidnapped and tortured Black Canary to fuck with Green Arrow.

>>92474306
Capes should shack up with whomever is appropriate for their story and doesn't involve one popular character subsuming an independent character with their own series into the more popular one's story

>>92479127
Toppest of keks

Capes should shack up together... in an iso-cube. This kind of vigilantism hurts more than it helps.

Yeah because the fascist police state working out so fricking well. I'd tell you to go to bed, but you probably already got your allotted 5 minutes anyway.

>>92480250
shame it took this long for best comment

Capes need to be rounded up, neutered and isolated from the rest of the world. The only thing separating them from villains is that they fancy themselves good and act like they help.

>>92474306
I don't care if they go for civilians or other capes, but they should stick to their own supporting casts.

It's been working out better than a bunch of loons in spandex who cause just as many imitation killers and creeps with their feuds as they manage to get rid of in the first place.

>>92481663
it really isn't.
just about every single criminal you get jumps straight to murderer because they'd rather try and kill their way out than go to the cubes.
if superheroes are to blame for inspiring supercrime then clearly judges are to be blamed for inspiring megacity crime

>>92479127
And yet he won't even do Gordon a solid...

>>92474306
Capes who only hang out with other capes have no supporting cast. That's a serious problem for book longevity.

>>92474306

>>>So...
Fuck off back to r/comicbooks fucking faggot

>>92474306
Combine them. They start as civilians and then get mutated into or trained to be superheroes.

own kind

SupesxWW

>>92474772

Not to mention the trend of the civilian love interests gaining powers. Carol becoming Star Sapphire, Iris gaining powers from the Speed Force, Lois sometimes gaining powers from kryptonian tech or stealing Bruces bat-suits.

>>92474306
Depends on the hero

>Superman works best with non-capes because they make him more human/tie him to humanity
>Wondy works best with non-capes because her whole purpose was to unite her people to man's world
>Batman works best with other vigilantes like Catwoman because he's obsessed with being Batman and sees himself as 'Batman' rather than 'Bruce Wayne'

>>92479852

Even with Superman and Wonder Woman, who are DC's most powerful metas ever, when they were dating Superman was constantly protecting Wonder Woman from getting wrecked by his overpowered villains.

>>92481812
honestly any civilian whose first reaction to finding out they're dating a superperson isn't to go out and buy superpowers or cybernetic enhancements for self defense just isn't a keeper

>>92481824

What a shit-taste. They're not even the same species or on the same power-levels.

>>92474306
It's all about chemistry mate. If they love each other, and if they're GOOD for each other, that's what matters, superpowers or not.

>>92481935
so uh....who would you ship with Supes?

>>92482477

Characters that he actually have an chemistry with.

I'm not even talking about Lois, because there are plenty of options: Lana, Cat, Zatanna, Vixen, Livewire, Matadora, and so on.

>>92474459
Oh jesus. Poor Lois

>>92482512
I think Superman x Zatanna might be interesting to explore in an elseworld or something, actually. She's usually paired up with Batman.

>>92482950
She's too good for Batman, the pairing only exists because Dini wanted to self-insert with his waifu. Zatanna and Supes would make a fun couple, especially since magic is his weakness

>>92482950

She actually have more chemistry with Superman, not even kidding.

Batman and Zatanna, i feel, suffer a lot from the same problems Superman and Wonder Woman. We're told they're close friends or that Zatanna loves him, but it feels contrived. You never see the great friendship or the feeling she has for him.

>>92482990

>especially since magic is his weakness

That's stupid. Why everything to do with Superman has to revolve his powers?

And he isn't weak to magic.

>>92474306
That ss incest comic that anon posted on mothers day pops up in my head everytime I see Lois and Jon together now. Fuck.

>>92474306
civilians are designated fucking toys for capes, capes should marry other capes.

>>92482512
Whoever you are, I fucks with you.

>>92483032
He is just vulnerable to magic like everyone else while he can shrug off bullets, lasers and energy blasts.
