our number one spot.
Now just because superheroes are out fighting crime all the time doesnt mean they cant take
a break for a love life.
There have been many superhero couples that have worked out in the past, some that havent
and some that were just strange.
However today we will be breaking down all of the short lived hook ups between superheroes
that we just couldnt have imagined ever happening.
Before we get started though leave us a comment down below with which villains youd love to
see become a couple and while you ponder that lets jump right into the Top 10 Superhero
Hookups We Never Saw Coming
#10 Captain Marvel and Stargirl A lot of the superheroes close to Captain
Marvel dont know that hes actually a teenager trapped in an adults body.
While working with the JSA he and the teen Stargirl started getting closer.
While the two were stuck in a different dimension their powers were stripped away so the adult
Shazam was in his teen form of Billy Batson.
Other than in this scenario these two superheroes hooking up was weird.
Which is also why we would have never seen this coming regardless of how close they were.
They worked collaboratively to escape this dimension and even sealed it with a kiss.
Although once returning the JSA was super weirded out to see the adult Shazam hitting
on the teen Stargirl.
#9 Black Widow and Winter Soldier After many thought that Bucky Barnes was dead
for sure he made a comeback as the Winter Soldier in 2005.
Bucky had spent his time away working for the Soviet Union as their top assassin and
during that time he had begun a relationship with Natasha Romanoff.
Although because they were both part of a secret Soviet organization their brains were
constantly being messed with.
Which led to the Winter Widow couple forgetting that they even got together.
When Bucky had his brief stint as Captain America he and Natasha worked hand in hand
on a lot of missions, but the Black Widow was brainwashed yet again to be an assassin.
Bucky on the other hand was able to break out of this mind control and remember their
relationship, but Natasha remembered everything except their hookups.
#8 Hawkeye and Wasp In another surprising hookup that we never
saw coming we have the odd pairing of Hawkeye and the wasp.
Written by the sort of hated Chuck Austen, when he was working on the Avengers comic
books he drove fans insane with the way he took the characters.
He would often write in storylines for characters that just didnt fit them.
Fans couldnt believe how out of left field this relationship was between the two friends
who literally had no build up to this hookup.
Even Captain America and Hank were questioning why the pair were embracing each other at
the start of Avengers issue 83 volume 3.
Thankfully this didnt last long because Chuck was removed from this job.
#7 Cyclops and Emma Frost This hookup isnt so much something that we
didnt see coming, but more so something that fans wanted to ignore ever happened.
Emmas character may have been altered a bit, but deep down she is still this manipulative
and arrogant lady.
She only started hooking up with Cyclops because she knew it would make Jean Grey angry.
And you wouldnt like her when shes angry.
The white queen did everything in her power to play games with Scott eventually driving
his character into a very bad place before she eventually embraced her role as a villain.
#6 Nightwing and Catwoman Now I get this is a superhero hookup video,
but Cat Woman has done heroic things before, so lets just give her the benefit of the doubt.
Back in 1996 for Nightwing issue number 52 Catwoman and Nightwing have a very unusual
and unexpected encounter.
The hookup between them didnt exactly come from a place of hidden affection from each
other.
Catwoman wanted to make Batman jealous and when Grayson ran into her at the warehouse
she took full advantage of this opportunity.
Nightwing is trying to switch the focus to the danger at hand, but Catwoman is only focused
on this bizarre jealousy scheme.
Regardless of the intention on both ends, they both engaged in this secret love affair
and then agreed not to let Bruce know.
#5 Daredevil and Black Cat During the comic book Amazing Spider-Man number
677 Black Cat had been arrested so Spiderman had called on Daredevil for an epic team up
to help free her.
Although Black Cat didnt really need the help, she was able to break out on her own and actually
set up a trap for the two.
Oh and by trap I mean she rigged two buildings to crash on top of them leaving both superheroes
quite helpless.
At the end they are able to sort out their differences, but for whatever reason Daredevil
felt this attraction for Black Cat.
The two eventually hooked up, but other than that single surprising time they didnt develop
the relationship into anything more.
#4 Batman and Black Canary Typically the masterful fighter Black Canary
is known for her relationship with Oliver Queen.
Although when it came to Frank Millers Dark Knight in All-Star Batman and Robin he shocked
fans with a surprising hookup.
The random hookup was brief and fleeting but regardless was filled with intense comic book
hookup passion.
Black Canary started to fall for Batman simply for his ability to fight off criminals using
just his fists.
Which makes sense considering how notable a fighter Black Canary is.
Although were guessing this relationship didnt last long because the first thing Batman said
when kissing her said - I havent kissed a smoker in weeks.
Not since Selina.
Way to kill the vibe dude.
#3 Johnny Storm and Medusa This hookup certainly shocked fans of the
uncanny inhumans.
Especially considering that Johnny was already in an established relationship with Crystal
the element controlling Inhuman royal family member.
However in 2016 during issue number 8 of the inhuman series Johnny had flipped the script
and hooked up with Crystals sister, Medusa.
At the time she wasnt with Black Bolt any more and as fate would have it the pair instantly
clicked.
Of course it didnt last long when Crystal found out.
Then when Black Bolt returned things got even more awkward with Johnny deciding to just
leave the Inhumans to avoid any friction.
#2 Captain America and Scarlet Witch This hookup was certainly a bizarre moment
considering the fact that these two for a long time were considered by fans as more
of a mentor, mentee type relationship.
Because of this it came as a huge surprise that a romance was starting between them.
Although Wanda had actually been crushing on Cap for a long time.
Ever since the beginning of her time with the Avengers the two shared many close calls
that built up to this passionate yet short lived hookup.
However it only ended between them because Captain America didnt think it was a great
idea.
The feeling was not mutual.
Wanda ended up using her reality warping powers to cause a reaction of events that culminated
with the Avengers Disassembled storyline.
Which yet again reinforces the idea that you should never date your coworkers.
#1 Doctor Strange and Elektra Set to be released March 4th, 2020.
The cover for the Savage Avengers issue number 11 has raised a lot of eyebrows.
The comic book is meant to reveal the horrific secret behind Kulan Gaths power, but the real
question most fans will have is this hookup between Elektra and Doctor Strange.
We dont know all of the details as of yet, but what we do know is that Clea and Matt
Murdock are probably equally out of the loop on this one.
In the previous issue Strange, Doom and Conan will attempt to kill Kulan Gath, but for the
next issue to have this as the cover…
Something had to have gone down.
I guess well have to wait and see if this will be short-lived or long term.
And that has been the Top 10 Superhero Hookups We Never Saw Coming.
