Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Tep, a long-time JLA member (aka Elongated Man. No, really. Like Plastic Man, but they decided to have two of them.) and his wife. That's probably all you need to get started, since it's not so much about who the specific victim was, as about the impact (which you can see as soon as you read it) on the JLA extended family .

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Are there any female characters of a heroic bent who even have civilian partners? In the DCU, I can't think of a single one.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
PMM, Troia tried. Didn't work out too well.
But if guys don't like (stereotype alert) chicks who make more than they do, just imagine.

So what you're saying is that unless this guy that Huntress is going out on a date with has secret super powers -- there is no future? (I've only read the little synopsis on the DC website. I don't really know what's going on there.)

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Don't worry, Mr. Broom, the classic X-Men stuff still crops up from time to time, mostly because I'm reading through it for the first time and feel inclined to blather on about stuff everyone else read decades ago.
Speaking of which, I'm up to '88. Storm just got her powers back. Colossus and Kitty are back to normal (well, relatively normal in the case of Colossus as his armor form is now his default state) but they never covered how they recovered in the comic. Is there some side-issue or issue from a different series I missed? Because one issue they're still messed up and in the next, they're fine (more or less.)

I just keep flashing to that episode of the Tick where Janet meets the guy when her costume's at the cleaners.

I don't remember Colossus off the top of my head, but Kitty was cured by Dr. Doom and Reed Richards working in a somewhat antagonistic tandem. There was a FF/X miniseries, with lots of Franklin Richards goodness.

Plei, WW's (few) dates have been normal, with the sole exception of early in the Perez reboot in the late 80s Hermes was following her around with a lovesick expression...
