Description
For the Man Who has Everything by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons was adapted into a JLU animated series episode, and it was a disappointment to us Superman/Wonder Woman fans when Diana never gave Clark a kiss as she did in the comic book story. I did the best I could to make the drawing style similar to that of the series. I also changed the fortress a bit and gave it a more glacial feeling since in this episode it looked like a giant bat cave in the arctic. So here's the kiss.

I can see all the Batwonder fans going crazy if they ever saw this...
Great art piece

In real life, there are certain aspects that change a person's life. Happens all the time. You know what? The same applies to comic book stories. If only Bruce Timm realized this during JLU's run... Ah, we'll never know.
We know that it can't always be Lois/Clark all the time. It was time for Superman to turn the page. Enter New 52. He connects with Diana. It was pure awesomeness.
...But Bruce Timm knows more than me, so what the hell do I know? LOL

Couldn't agree more.
I always got the vibe that Bruce Timm never liked Superman.

The reason why they didn't include this kiss moment in the episode adaptation was because the creative team of the show didn't support S/WW. But if they did, I bet it would've looked something like this amazing image!
Great work!

I love it when Diana calls him Kal. To Lana, Lori, and Lois he's just Clark Kent. To Maxima he's just Kal-el, but when Diana calls him Clark or Kal, it has way more resonance.

vewy, vewy nice!
Diana:
Happy Birthday! and where do you think you're going?! Here's your Birthday present! after a long kiss "How old are you again?
Kal:
If I tell you that I'm really old do I get more kisses?
Diana:
Maybe.
Kal:
Okay. I'm very very old.
love the cartoon quality and the arctic look. You're right. no need to make the ice cave look like the bat cave

Bruce Timm is an egomaniac who have the SM/WW pairing with an evil passion! He must be stopped before he keeps puttin' crap that made comic books look like a joke! I'm tellin' the truth under protest around here people!
I'm a do a Stone Cold Steve Austin impression. If you support the SM/WW pairing with all your might, give a hell yeah!

Hell yeah. And whoever Bruce Timm is he must be a die hard bat fanboy that's why he will hate SM/WW. SM/WW always made more sense than Clark and Lois because superman can actually connect with wonder woman like he has never connected with anyone before.

Well done PSM22, thank you for setting the record straight. Alan Moore would've been pleased.

When I watched that episode I was like:
"Well, it figures. The guy who is doing these cartoons(at the time I didn't know it was Bruce Timm) just *had* to take one of the few bones given to the SM/WW fans and adapt and deface it into his batgodverse, didn't he?"
Thanks to your canonical correction!

Wait so I'm not the only one, who's noticed how Batman-centric the DCAU is? You are awesome! I have to agree Bruce Timm is nothing but a Batman fanboy.
