10 DC Comics That Would Make Perfect Animated Films

3. Wonder Woman: Blood

Superman Kingdom Come
DC Comics

The recent runs of Wonder Woman are some of the best pieces coming out of DC in the last decade. The animators at Warner Bros. should take note of the success Wonder Woman is creating and plan accordingly.

Yes, there is a new Wonder Woman animated film coming out called Wonder Woman: Bloodlines, but it doesn’t connect to the run of comics worth adapting from the recent New 52 series. Wonder Woman: Blood is an excellent way to begin a two-part animated film series focused on Diana’s interactions with the gods of Olympus.

The destruction caused by the gods in this story is hard to recreate in live-action settings, but an animated version would have no trouble communicating the carnage. The story is a way of reconciling Diana’s past while helping an innocent woman escape the wrath of unjust gods. The whole story is a compelling idea worth translating into a long feature-length movie.
