History
Birdman is the adult version of Bird-Boy, a teenage avian who was once in love with Wonder Girl and later with the adult Wonder Woman. Wonder Girl first discovered Bird-Boy flying around the perimeter of Paradise Island. He was immediately smitten with her, but also had to contend with his marine rival, Mer-Boy. [1]
As an adult, Birdman was forced to compete with several other suitors for Wonder Woman's affection including Steve Trevor and the now grown Mer-Man. Birdman was horrified to discover that Wonder Woman had agreed to marry a green-skinned monster from a nearby island. The wedding never took place however, as the monster realized that he was too loathesome in appearance to ever marry Wonder Woman. [2]Powers and Abilities
