10 Comic Book Characters Who Would Make Great Horror Movies
1. Wonder Woman
With the Amazonian Princess being one of the most important members of the Justice League, she is normally seen fighting aliens or robots alongside the world’s greatest superheroes. However, in her solo comics, Diana goes up against some of the deadliest Gods and Monsters in the DC pantheon. The thing is, none of the creatures that she fights are drawn in a horrifying way. That being said, in the right setting, Wonder Woman’s rogues gallery would be perfect for the horror genre.
Wonder Woman’s Amazonian biology means that she is also impervious to viruses like the Amazo Virus shown in New 52’s Justice League: Volume 2. When a virus breaks out turning everyone into superpowered freaks of nature, it is up to Wonder Woman and a small team to contain the outbreak.
Stories like this mean that we have an excuse to put Diana in a zombie apocalypse storyline, just for the sake of it being cool.
However, as her comics have shown, there are plenty of organic ways to make a terrifying Wonder Woman story. Whether on her own or with the Justice League Dark, Diana is DC's greatest defence against the supernatural, and that would make one HELL of a film.
