In another thread some anon suggested the idea of going back to Cheetah (Barbara Minerva) as a rogue archaeologist who goes in pulp adventures, plunders ancient civilizations, and is generally an anti-villain who hulks out as a werecat when is dramatically appropriate.
What archaelogical adventures would she get into in the larger DCU?
In another thread some anon suggested the idea of going back to Cheetah (Barbara Minerva) as a rogue archaeologist...
Come to think of it, the possibilities are endless. Atlantis, Hyperborean/alien civilisations, lost cities, hollow earth… are all real in the DCU.
Being an Archaeologist in the DCU must suck
painstakingly excavate Roman ruins over several years and prepare a report on the limited information you've been able to decipher
A time-displaced Centurion takes one look and can't stop laughing at how wrong you are
cross-reference scripts from a dozen different sources in 3 dead languages to try to determine the identity of...
oh, it's Vandal Savage again
Cheetah in Skartaris sounds like a no-brainer.
As far as I know tere are three distinct intraterrestial civilizations: Abyssia, Skartaris, and the one Nice Terra is from.
Vandal Savage is full of shit, guy didn’t meet any historically relevant figure until the late Roman republic.
Something something nth metal tomb.
It's funny that WW's archenemy is from Post-Crisis, same title as the Golden Age character but not the same character.
Mommy
Loved how calm and collected she looked in her human form and how gleefully unhinged the moment she went feral.
Ya know, there could be something there exploring the duality of a calculating, heartless woman, and the beast within, honest in her primal desires.
Yeah, but I also wanna see the exciting, pulpy, and progressively erotic adventures of a sexy adventurer explorer who is a jerk.
Meh. I want Cheetah to embrace her whole 'avatar of dark and forgotten murder god' thing to the limit. Ravage pantheons and devour millions of souls.
Why not trillions of souls instead?
Raise the stakes too high, and there are really no stakes at all.
you could even make an interesting back and forth with WW
cheetah wants to uncover the barbaric secrets of themyscira, and possibly profit off it
diana wants to defend her native land and customs from foreign interference
There's only a few billion souls on earth, dipshit. Millions is well within the realm of acceptability as established with Trigon, Hecate, Abraxis, etc.
What about the already dead ones?
Dharma's wheel has them.
american psycho but woman
What archaelogical adventures would she get into in the larger DCU?
I could see her going on adventures for cat themed fertility idols.
Licks thighs...
Its a form of worship
Don't make it too dual, though. No different voices, just Barbara Minerva letting herself go wild.
Never actually seen the movie this is from. Is it worth watching?
Well animated, lighthearted romp. Nothing earth-shattering, though it's the first time in ages I've found Catwoman likeable.
One of DC's best films.
Why is the cover art on every DC animated movie so shit and not reflective of the movie's artsyle at all?
That idea stuck with me too
That kinda what I wanted, she's an antagonistic tomb raider sitting on a mountain of enchanted artifacts and trinkets she's collected over the years and a general all around shitter that has managed to infuriate the various pantheons and has managed to manipulate her curse to her benefit, enough with the sympathetic woe is me bullshit
Elizabeth Gillies as Selina made me diamonds. She could play Catwoman irl as well.
Lara Croft by way of Mickey Spillane and Cat People. Unrelenting pulp adventures starring an unrepentant jerk you hate to love.
Giving her the ability to shift between form would be kinda neat
Elizabeth Gillies
IS THIS SHIT REAL?
HNNNG
The Tomb of the Time Trapper!
Raiders of Skartaris!
The Helm of the Forgotten Pharaoh!
Curse of the Red Jar of Calythos!
...Goddamit I can't stop thinking about it, might actually put pen to paper and do something with these ideas.
The Call of Arion
Savage times
The Lazarus Scrolls
Now I can’t stop seeing Cheetah like Plankton, stealing the Lazarus pit secret sauce.
uh, the temple of of the Legion of Doom?
Something involving Vixen's Tantu Totem.
Me too.
I'm going to FUCK you until you DIE
But I don’t want to have sex.
