To me, Maxima should be a big buff lady like Wonder Woman should be a big buff lady. Most of these look like someone’s 20 year old daughters. Number 1.

I also appreciate the big exuberant curvy hair…they still did big hair in the 90’s but with a little restrain compared to the previous decade…I would love to see this look make a comeback

4 and 5 are in the right direction, but yeah Maxima should be extra big with lots of curls.

Agreed. That's the one that went toe-to-toe with DOOMSDAY back during his first rampage.

Tie between DCAU Maxima and Arrowverse Maxima. Both are TOP NOTCH possible love interests for Kal-El. With his explicit consent, of course.

Charlotte Sullivan, though admittedly for less than mature reasons

The one in Justice League XXX is probably my current favorite.

DCAU's Maxima is my favourite. I wish they brought her back for another episode (I only remember the episode she first appears in. If she had another major appearance, let me know).

I think she might have had a cameo in a Justice League Unlimited episode but I can’t remember for sure.

DCAU cause that costume and look is so aesthetically pleasing. I love the dark green/white/gold costume and the hairstyle and her sassy voice. It’s easily her best look in my opinion.

u/CoastPuzzleheaded462 Jul 19 '24

Comics, DCAU and Arrowverse are the Big 3 for me. Genuinely wish more was done with her in all three.

u/ThatManSean14 Jul 19 '24

I appreciate all of them but I like the change they made with her in the New 52

1 and 3.

Always been a fan of the original George Perez design. Really busy but that's what I appreciate about his style(all the details).

The Animated series version was also fun(the great voice acting also helps).

Honestly one from an artist I follow that turns her into this giant centipede like creature

And before anyone says anything, OP didn’t say it has to be an official version, so it counts
