[QUOTE="stevelabny, post: 1267225, member: 9298"] Donna Troy aka WonderGirl aka Troia aka one of the Darkstars had spent time floundering around the DC Universe mostly with the various incarnations of the Titans, somehow she had become the "motherly" figure with the Titans and lost her appeal as a character. Marz (or his editor) looked around the DCU for a hot interesting chick to use as new Green Lantern Kyle Rayner's love interest and chose Donna. The relationship with Donna and Kyle was built up pretty normally (for a soap opera, or insanely well for a comic book) and they did numerous cute comic-book romance things including Kyle giving her a necklace with a little green-lantern-powered charm so she would know if she ever left his mind (because it would disappear if part of him wasnt concentrating on it) Then John Byrne got the job of destroying...sorry i mean WRITING Wonder Woman. He immediately threw his weight around the editorial offices to get Donna into HIS book. The editors of course let Byrne, the bigger name, get his way and just like that POOF Donna was out of GL. Completely underming the relationship that Marz had built up and leaving the GL offices scrambling. Byrne has a huge problem doing things like this. He think "Byrne knows best" and will instantly destroy anything a previous writer has done that he disagrees with even if it doesnt make sense. He did the same thing when he returned to the Spidey books for a very short time and got his hands on the Sandman. Sandman had been a long-time Spidey villain who multiple writers had slowly walked down the path to becoming a good guy. He had joined forces with Silver Sable, with Spidey and even with the AVENGERS. (the epitome of good in the MU) But Byrne didnt like the idea of Sandman as a good guy and instantly reverting him back to a villain spoiling years of character development. The man is insane and needs to be stopped. [/QUOTE]
