Line 160:
* Mr. Fantastic and the Invisible Woman in the ''[[Fantastic Four (Comic Book)|Fantastic Four]]''.
* Jean Grey and Cyclops (a.k.a Scott Summers) in ''[[X-Men (Comic Book)|X-Men]]''. Many consider Emma Frost coming in to be, well...
* Clark Kent and [[Lois Lane]] in ''[[Superman]]''. {{spoiler|At least, prior to [[Retcon]] to ''[[Flashpoint (Comic Bookcomics)|Flashpoint]]''}}.
* Ralph Dibny, the [[Elongated Man]] and Sue Dibny.
* Peter Parker and Mary-Jane Watson from ''[[Spider-Man]]''. Before a highly unpopular [[One More Day|retcon]], anyway. The backlash was so bad, that even [[Stan Lee]] didn't fully agree with the new direction, and kept the two together in the newspaper comic strip.
Line 174:
* Sonic and Sally in ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog (comics)|Sonic the Hedgehog]]''. Since their status currently is "broken up", however, some consider [[Beta Couple]] Antoine and Bunnie to be the official couple.
* [[Scott Pilgrim]] and Ramona Flowers.
* [[Incredible Hulk (Comic Book)|Bruce]] and Betty Banner. They're currently on the outs, in the wake of Betty returning from being [[Only Mostly Dead|Mostly Dead.]]
* [[Comicbook/Nexus|Nexus]] and Sundra.
* [[ROM Spaceknight]] and Brandy Clark.
Line 195:
== Film (live action) ==
* Han and Leia in the ''[[Star Wars]]'' films. Notably, [[The Hero|Luke]] doesn't get ''anyone'' until the [[Expanded Universe]] rolls around, aside from Leia kissing him once to mess with Han's head (a scene infamous for its ''retroactive'' [[Squick]]). Anakin and Padme in the prequels.
* [[On Her Majesty's Secret Service|James Bond and Tracy di Vincenzo]]. This is the film in which the (in)famous [[The Casanova|Casanova]] finally decides to settle down. Pity about {{spoiler|the [[Diabolus Ex Machina]]}}. Three decades of movies later, and he almost has another in [[The World Is Not Enough (Film)|Elektra King]]. Pity about {{spoiler|her being the [[The Man Behind the Man|Femme Fatale behind the terrorists]]}}. Interestingly enough, Bond ''was'' intended to have a steady girlfriend in [[Dr. No|Sylvia]] [[From Russia with Love|Trench]], notable as the only Bond woman to appear twice, complete with [[Running Gag]] of him always being called away on missions when they're about to have a moment, but, reportedly, the actress refused to work with any director who was not the director of the first two films.
* ''[[Sky High]]'' has Will and Gwen {{spoiler|which gives way to Will and Layla after Gwen proves to be [[Using You All Along|using him all along]]}}. [[Word of God]] has confirmed that, had the film spawned a series as was the original plan, {{spoiler|Layla}} would've gone with {{spoiler|Warren}}. Where does this leave {{spoiler|Will}}? Search us.
* When ''[[Across the Universe (film)|Across the Universe]]'' begins, Jude is happily dating Molly and Lucy is happily dating Daniel. Then Jude and Lucy find each other, and we have a plot! Also, Sadie and Jojo, much to Prudence's chagrin.
Line 519:
* Saturn Girl and Lightning Lad in ''[[Legion of Super-Heroes (TV series)|Legion of Super Heroes]]'', a series thick with official couples, which also includes Phantom Girl and Ultra Boy, and [[Fetish Fuel|Bouncing Boy and Triplicate Girl/Duo Damsel]]
* Goliath and Elisa in ''[[Gargoyles]]'', pretty much from the third episode of the series. Acknowledged between themselves in the Second [[Season Finale]].
* ''[[Histeria (Animation)|Histeria!]]'': Miss Information and Mr. Smartypants, in a show of [[Opposites Attract]]. Also, Pepper Mills and Toast.
* ''[[Teamo Supremo]]'': Crandall and Brenda, as [[Word of God|confirmed by Phil Walsh]] in an interview. (Unfortunately, the show itself did not get to actually reveal it.)
* ''[[Tiny Toon Adventures]]'': Buster and Babs Bunny ([[Lampshade Hanging|no relation]]), with Elmyra and Montana Max as the [[Beta Couple]].
