    I vote for Zatanna, because I like fishnets.

    Interesting.

    People are voting because they like or dislike the costumes (and I'm including myself), not because A or B is more powerful.

    OTOH, Zatanna has managed to completely duplicate the entire Justice League, and the dupes were (apparently) just as powerful as the originals. Wanda has re-written good chunks of reality.

    With Plot Device characters, you might as well pick a costume you like.

    I'm not saying your wrong and personally wouldn't kick either of'em out of bed if they were real.
    I was just commenting is all.

    Well, as far as which would make a better fantasy GF, Zatanna at least won't go crazy and re-write your brain. On the other hand, if that's what you like, Wanda's your girl.

    ... you must live on the timeline where IDENTITY CRISIS was never published, and the JLA never did stupid things like mindwipe each other to cover up their attempts to 'Clockwork Orange' supervillains.

    What are the comics like there? Do they actually /not/ suck? Can you post scans? *pleading*

    They follow this timeline.

    (I stopped reading Marvel and DC around 1993 or so, save for the odd TPB; never regretted it. I'd forgotten that they made Zatanna a mind rapist as well.)

    As we speak, thousands upon thousands of DC comics fans are deeply envying your lack of memory.

    Re: Zatanna vs Scarlet Witch

    You can always fall back to animated portrayals, since goodness knows "Justice League" is truer to the cores of the characters than the comics these days:

    Zatanna: JLU appearances

    Scarlet Witch: Avengers aniamted appearances

    ...

    ...ok, so it's not very fair, Zatanna wins that comparison by a mile.

    Merely because "It's my opinion" does not exempt the underlying reasoning from examination.

    That's one good timeline there. Oh, and BTW, have you seen copies of the Wold Newton paperback floating around Barnes & Noble? Seems like it'd be right up your alley.

    Thanks, glad you liked it.

    I'm a fan of the paperback. Posted a review of it on the boards somewhere.

    I'd definitely kick Wanda out of my bed. Just sleep with the Scarlet Witch once, next thing you know the Impossible Man or more likely Willie Lumpkin wakes up from a night's sleep saying "What a weird dream. There isn't any such thing as a fuzzy gnome."

    Re: Zatanna vs Scarlet Witch

    I'm not sure how powerful Zantanna is supposed to be in the DC universe, but given that the Scarlet Witch single handedly changed the entire world to one where Magneto had won and then chaged it again and decimated the 'powered' mutant population of Earth all because in her insanity she had become a threat that it was decided needed the combined power of the Avengers and the X-men to *kill* (that's right she was too dangerous for the heroes to allow to live) I'd have to go with her.

    Of course she may have depowered herself during 'Decimation' in which case Zantanna would win.
    The only difference between a hero and a fool is one lucky shot.

    Is this thread supposed to convince me to vote for either one of them?

    Nope. This thread is simply a fine example of why those stopsigns and magnifying glasses are next to certain powers in Hero.
