Anonymous asked: Which of Warren's girlfriends have been your favorite? I've seen a fair amount of Stacy, Ali, and Bets on your tumblr, but which of the ladies do you think complements our resident flyboy best?

Haha oh gosh, Anon, that’s like asking me to choose between my favourite songs. It changes all the time, depends on the writer, story arc, etc etc and it’s actually much, MUCH easier for me to choose who I don’t like him with than it is for me to choose who I like him with best.

Candy Southern probably edges out everyone by a HAIR. She was totally a bamf being human and leading the Defenders and putting up with all of the crazy super hero crap that she did. Not only was she leading the Defenders, but she was RUNNING Southern International and making all of the important decisions FOR Warren at Worthington Industries at the same time (ie, when he was too young and inexperienced to give a crap about his family business). She was a socialite, like Warren, who loved her fashion and architecture, etc, but she was very SMART and took no shit lying down. Plus she managed to put up with him longer than anyone else, lol.

Honourable mention goes out to Officer Charlotte Jones, who was real as fuck and helped Warren out throughout his Archangel ordeal when he FIRST became the Horseman of Death. Yeah, that’s right, it was a human lady who was a single mom paying her bills by being a street cop and kicking ass & taking names. Honourable mention also to Dazzler (who’s fab for a million reasons) and Psylocke (who he essentially went to hell for/sold part of his soul for and who he died with).

Honestly, Warren’s had some epically awesome relationships that are often, for whatever reason, overshadowed by much shallower relationships in the books. Even his really short, one-two issue only lady friends have been fun to read. I think the silly adventures of him and Wanda could have been awesome if they’d shown more of that. I also liked Cat Lady from the Season One GN and the funny story where he was kidnapped by a ghost who bathed him as he was chained to the floor (Tuesday, was her name, from the Phantom Wings GN). But mostly just because that last one made me laugh really hard, okay? ;)

Thanks for the question!
