Greetings nerdy list aficionados and welcome back to Top 10 Nerd and the couples you want
more of them superhero pairings coupling hookups that you didn’t know about most likely some
of you are level 10 paladins and know all the pairings but I’m always trying to throw
some curveballs at you we’ve made it all the way to part 4 let the good times roll.
I’m Sasha and these are the top 10 superhero couples you won’t believe exist part 4.
Let’s get started.
Number 10 - Batman Wonder Woman – So this one is at number 10 cause well this pops up
a lot and was even a part of the DCAU with wonder woman being a pretty aggressive go
getter about to most people in that canon remember that episode where wonder woman gets
turned into a pig and to change her back Batman has to sing for circe and he does.
It’s all very sweet.
However in comics, this has been flirted with as well it’s usually as an elseworlds thing.
We have the really awkward heriatric kiss from the dark knight returns.
But they were also together during the obsidian age saga a post crisis arc that now no longer
counts like so many things, so many universe resets.
This one falls into a man of steel woman of Kleenex argument for some saying that batman
would be too fragile.
I mean remember when she shoved him in Snyder’s justice league another series that was hinting
hard at this.
When people tend to pair wonder woman in the trinity it tends to be with superman but that
will run into a backlash with some of being too obvious where they fell batman and Diana
is a more unique dynamic.
Which do you prefer and why tell me down below how you feel about Wonderbat yes I used the
ship name I’m that type of person you know this by now.
Number 9 - Nightwing & Huntress – Here we go post crisis so Helena Wayne has become
Helena Bertinelli and is now a loose canon who does what it takes to get the job done.
She would end up having a relationship with Nightwing during one of his more angsty periods.
They would even have a mini series together where their dynamics would bounce off of each
other her succeed at all costs and his batman training which more often expressed the need
for limits.
It was a 4 issue mini he tries to get her to change her ways and gives her the we’re
both lonely speech which is a bold play but if you get the person at the right time can
be super effective and it works here.
I mean this gets them sleeping together and then Barbara calls and it’s super awkward
cause they were a thing.
So this was a kinda sort of love triangle but not really it ended up being treated as
a bit of a more physical thing and it would carry over into new timelines but it’s not
for most people anyway who people envision either of these characters with.
Dick has his ship war with Barbara and starfire.
And there was a large push for huntress and the question largely thanks to the justice
league cartoon.
Number 8 - Spider-Man Mockingbird – So Spider-Man has had many a super powered girlfriend and
one of them has been mockingbird who was actually married to hawkeye for a bit I’m telling
you hawkeye secret relationship ninja.
Now Spider-man and mockingbird was set up as a bit of a mismatch but was also supposed
to the relationship that was going to help marvel most past one more day the infamous
storyline that ended peter and mjs marriage via demon divorce and for mnay mj and peter
are endgame.
So this was a relationship she was spider-man’s super spy girlfriend who started hooking up
while peter was the head of parker industries and had his life in order.
However from the start there were signs like for example bobbi didn’t find peter funny
and he quips all the time.
And then peter would be reset again so he would go from I have a job things are working
out right back to he’s a menace and he has no job and can’t figure anything out time
to crash on her couch and then go find a roommate.
Yeah so she didn’t want much to do with this peter I can’t imagine why and now has
a very looking down on mean to him but she secretly still cares dynamic.
Or she did these things shift mostly now it’s a hey we used to date and it’s super awkward.
You know how we could have avoided all of this by having writers who understand that
writing marriage can be interesting and dynamic you just have to apply more than baseline
effort and I’m going to reign my salt in cause about to reveal my true form.
Little star trek joke for you.
Number 7 - Robin Spoiler – So this Robin is again Tim Drake so much Tim on these list
and for younger fans I know it’s like Tim?
So Tim Drake for a time had quite the relationship with spoiler Stephanie brown this was the
persona she took on before her death and subsequent resurrection in war games as her death was
met with an immediate and intense backlash especially because it could be read as largely
being batman’s fault and not for a good reason either.
She would later become batgirl but while she was spoiler she was initially largely a foil
for Robin.
She was the daughter of the villain cluemaster largely a knock off Riddler and her and robin
had a teen pregnancy plot.
And it was acclaimed.
People really enjoyed these two together and felt it was a fresh and more mature look at
a teen romance for the time however this would end after the robin shenanigans.
It’s too bad it was a unique dynamic this was who Tim was with when jubilee was trying
to hit on him by the way fun fact.
Number 6 - Psylocke Cyclops – So Cyclops has a thing for telepaths and also cheating
apparently.
This occurred in the 90s and was when she joined an x team cyclops was leading and found
herself drawn to him and decided to seduce him he didn’t really object that much he
loves the psychic mind scape play stuff.
So this was less cheaty cause we’re past him abandoning his wife and baby to hang out
with jean but this followed pretty shortly after and he was now back with jean and so
to some fans it was like ok so did Madelyn mean nothing did jean mean nothing like these
are supposed to be your great loves and then here comes Psylocke.
She would also do the same mind play thing that emma would do later minus the full mindscape
and creepy therapy.
He would ultimately stay with jean though and then cable would show up as an adult so
no time for cheating.
Number 5 - Barbara Gordon Ted Kord – So this occurred during Birds Of Prey and was
set up as a separate romance for Barbara outside of Dick Grayson.
Ted Kord was drawn to Barbara cause of her intelligence and attitude and she enjoyed
his easy going but still serious when needed attitude.
The two would enter into a tentative relationship however ultimately would decide they would
rather be with other people.
Culminating with them leaning in for a kiss and being like I have to say something and
she says I’m getting serious about someone at the same time as he says Can we just be
friends.
The two have a good laugh and there are no hard feelings any lingering feelings would
be cut short by his murder by Maxwell Lord and since is resurrection post universe wide
reboots things have been different.
Number 4 - Captain America Falcon Lady Thor – Listen I need to specify when you have
multiples running around so you know who I’m talking about like some people get really
made when you call lady thor lady thor and they’re like she’s thor and I’m like
yes but second thor and we have adjectives and descriptors for a reason.
So this happened in all new all different and was well it there was a battle and they’re
colleague and the dialogue after their kiss is really weird firstly everyone is shocked
like they’ve never seen a kiss before.
And then she’s all you certainly taste how IU imagined captain America would taste and
he goes you taste like a goddess, what do both of those statements mean like squirrel
girl taste like hazlenuts.
Like what does captain America taste like, apple pie, mcdonald’s I dunno.
And a goddess so like light energy and pain also she’s not a goddess maybe more like
mm you taste like a magic hammer.
So yes this was a thing that happened they taste how the other expected tale as old as
time.
This ship is called thundershield by the way.
Number 3 - Scarlet Witch Brother Voodoo time for a scarlet witch pairing that doesn’t
involve mind control hooray.
Scarlet witch has recently had far more emphasis placed on the witch part of her persona and
was even recently retconned to not being a mutant anymore, which I hope gets changed
back come on pendulum retcons where are you when I need you.
Well Brother Voodoo is a powerful sorcerer and Jericho Drumm was even the sorcerer supreme
for a time.
These two decided to explore what the potential future could hold together as a couple for
a bit and it was sweet they both know the struggles the other has gone through and the
danger and power of magic.
It’s so wholesomehe asks her if she’s ok there’s none of the judgement that comes
from other people she’s all I’ve never been with anyone who understands both sides
of me and he’s all after their kiss that was sudden good but sudden.
See that’s something cute after a kiss not you taste how I thought you would blargh.
Wholesome cuteness more of this please I fully support.
Number 2 - Kyle Rayner Donna Troy just before we get started in the new teen titans canon
for a time donna had a husband and kid and then the editors decided that that wasn’t
relatable for teens so they had her family die in a car crash.
So that she could go back to going on dates cause who can ever relate to having a family
more boys.
Where the dates at.
Anyways Kyle was one of the boys for her to go on dates with there would even later on
be a kinda love triangle between her kyle and Jason todd.
But that was the same series that would see her calling Jason retodded do you get it.
This was during countdown.
So in all honesty this was cute the two went on dates in space and balanced the duality
of their secret identities and wanting a normal life.
I mean donna was down for that she married a normal guy.
So teamamtes hopefully more that’s kyle talking not me.
They’ll bring this one up on occasion it depends how in favour kyle is especially post
hal’s resurrection sometimes it can be like kyle who.
Number 1 – So what could top all this the wasp and Deadpool you’re welcome.
That’s right so Deadpool’s Secret Secret Wars #4 this showed Janet sleeping with the
hot “hot” in quotes mustached Deadpool.
So this was a thing that happened we’ll chop it up to the melded universe bizarre
weird timey wimey stuff going on.
Later there would be some drama about tit and it would come out that while this was
going on the deed she was calling him magnus which is Magneto’s name like one of in the
comics it was far more common to hear magnus than Eric.
So yeah remember I told you she hooked up with magneto in secret wars and apparently
she’s been thinking about it since like dang it’s been decades.
Well poor Deadpool’s feelings were hurt.
Poor Deadpool people are so awful to him go back to cable sweetie it will be better.
So those were ten more superhero couples you never knew existed part 4.
I’ve got more you can’t break me.
Did any of these shock you let me know down below and have we missed anyone.
