oh god the rest of that Stinkles post is awful, along with posts similar to it where everyone is reading Wiki entries about the character but it's not Marvel so they don't actually know anything about her:
Blows my mind that she can stand a chance against wonder woman
I read her bio and it looks like her most recent iteration is effectively granted god derived “huntress “ powers and a sort of pantheon approved method of challenging gods and demigods- although originally she was just an insecure heiress who turned criminal and more of a neurotic Lex Luthor/Justin Hammer analog.
Not sure what her movie outing will focus on but her version name and the leaked pic say supernatural powers and complex relationship with Diana to me. She’s had a couple hours f antihero redemption arcs but is weirdly recent relative to the original version of that character- brought back from obscure oblivion just a couple of decades ago. Which seems to be a frequent goldmine for modern comic writers. Weird old shit that doesn’t make sense in 2020 but can be revamped or given a twist.
Cheetah/Barbara stands a chance against Wonder Woman because Diana is a good person who wishes to save Barbara not just flat out murder her. And none of this is oblivion revival, Barbara has been around forever (aka since Crisis) and consistently. There's a gap in her history as Cheetah because she was "cured" at one point before sacrificing herself to save people. The other Cheetahs don't count, you'd think a lore-expert like Frank would understand this.
Also, MAXWELL LORD IS IN THE FILM. He's the true BIG BAD. How can he not be?!? Cheetah will obviously make the anti-hero turn to help defeat him and escape, which Diana "allows" reluctantly in order to save Barbara at a future point.
Thanks bork for directing me to DC lore discussion on ResetERA.com. smdh
