"gods become superheroes" is done by every comic-book-hero-verse, so why isn't there a superhero version of Artemis??

she's the EXACT kind of goddess to care more about stuff going on on Earth than other gods

She exists in Marvel although I don't think she's really a "superhero."

Ah, yep, there she is. She fought the Avengers once because Thor beat up Hercules.

I think Artemis isn’t a super”hero” in Marvel because Marvel already committed to Greek Gods being kind of a foil for the Asgardians?

I don’t know if Wonder Woman has ever tapped Artemis, I know they’ve used other greek gods (usually as antagonists)

Yeah, she exists as a character but she's not a superhero. Which would be pretty cool.

I agree with you Em, the potential of Artemis in comics has been squandered

I like to split the difference and go with asexual homoromantic for Artemis, personally. : D

She doesn't want to sleep with women, she wants to go on beautiful poignant forest adventures with them where they fight back to back against a great and powerful quarry.

didn't Zeus disguise himself as Artemis to seduce one of her priestesses, or was that a different goddess?
