Wonder Woman Vs. Absorbing Man

 

Could Crusher Creel truly adopt the properties of Wonder Woman's magic lasso?  I think that's an interesting enough set up to build a story around.

"Later attempts by longtime WONDER WOMAN author Robert Kanigher to expand the franchise with a spin-off character, 'Absorbing Tot,' proved singularly unsuccessful."

"It was not until a year later, when Kanigher collaborated with Chris Claremont and Jack Kirby (in creating the Li'l Masters of Evil as foes pf the X-baby 'Vengers) that Absorbing Tot found his niche."

That's a very provocative question, Ross. One that probably has a lot of Deviantartists already meditating on how to visually answer it.

Back to seriousness, though. That's a vaguely familiar action-pose for Wonder Woman. Is it from when she fought the Parasite in Marvel Treasury Edition #28 (the second-ever Superman/Spidey team-up)?

It's a JLGL sketch.

ROFL :)

On a more serious note, would his absorbing the lasso's properties compel him to speak the truth? If so, then presumably him believing that Wonder Woman's advantage is gone is enough to meet that requirement.
