** One of the first demonstrations of animal intelligence on the day of The Wake we see is an orca approaching its trainer during a performance and professing its love to her in front of everyone.
** It's hinted that Adam's (Human) loyalty to Wintermute (Wolf) was partially out of genuine romantic love for Wintermute, though Adam feared openly showing any kind of affection to Wintermute such as petting her. Wintermute is shown to reciprocate his love over time, by her [[DyingDeclarationOfLove secret dream/message]] programmed into Adam's cybernetic Animata upgrades where she rips off her own skin to take her possibly ideal humanoid form, and laments that this was the only way for them to share a true 'kiss'. During their final night together before Wintermute was executed, she calls Adam her [[AffectionateNickname 'sweetheart']].

to:

\n!!The following !!Franchise/TheDCU
* ''ComicBook/{{Superman}}'':
** Lois Lane and Clark Kent are probably the most famous example of interpecies romance (even though he's a {{Human Alien|s}} Kryptonians were, up until 2016, biologically different enough from humans that they and humans couldn't reproduce).
** In ''ComicBook/KryptonNoMore'', Superman wonders whether he can
have a relationship with a human woman despite being an alien outcast.
** Superman also had a relationship with Franchise/WonderWoman in the ''ComicBook/KingdomCome'' mini-series and in the ''ComicBook/New52''.
** DC once printed an {{Elseworld}} story (back when they were still called "Imaginary Stories") where ComicBook/LoisLane had been killed after Franchise/{{Superman}} settled down and had a daughter with her. At one point, he created a robot duplicate of her, which proved to be all too lifelike. Apparently, the UncannyValley doesn't faze some people.
* The eventual romance and implied sexual relationship between ComicBook/JimmyOlsen (human, with some plot-related variations) and the Forager ([[GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe really hot female purple-skinned alien bounty hunter humanoid INSECT]]) in ''ComicBook/CountdownToFinalCrisis''.
* Toyed with in Creator/FrankMiller's ''ComicBook/TheDarkKnightStrikesAgain'', where Hal Jordan [[spoiler: whose control over his powers now renders him virtually omnipotent]], has left Earth and is now living [[spoiler: on Mars]], where he lives a happy, wholesome family life with his wife and son. Unlike most examples of this trope, the [[spoiler: Martians]] are not rendered physically attractive or appealing in any way; Hal Jordan instead uses his power [[spoiler: to make himself a Martian, completely capable of maintaining the form indefinitely, as well as capable of breeding with other Martians]], and is extremely reluctant to return to Earth [[spoiler: after receiving Batman's transmission]], until his wife urges him to help his own people. He only reverts back to his human form after he has already left [[spoiler: Mars]], and is quick to return as soon as his business on Earth has been finished [[spoiler: which involved him multiplying his size to that of many times the Earth, able to grasp the entire planet in his fist, crushing Lex Luthor's planet wide multi-trillion dollar WMD satellite network while leaving the planet itself unharmed.]]
* ''ComicBook/DoomPatrol'' villain the Brain ([[BrainInAJar a disembodied human brain]]) is in a relationship with Monsieur Mallah (a genetically altered super intelligent gorilla). Disturbingly, back in the day, readers found
their relationship controversial ''not'' because of the fact that it's a case of [[BestialityIsDepraved bestiality]], [[SkewedPriorities but because they are the same gender]].
* ''Franchise/GreenLantern'':
** John Stewart married Katma Tui (alien) and hadlong-standing relationships with Merayn Dethalis and Yrra Cynril (both also alien).
** The [[Characters/GLGreenLanternCorps Green Lantern Corps]] seems rife with this. Hal Jordan and Arisia, Kyle Rayner and Soranik Natu, and when you bear in mind that nearly every member of the Corps is a different species, when relationships between members of the Corps were banned over 200 resigned in protest.
* ''ComicBook/LegionOfSuperHeroes'': there are a lot of interspecies romances in the Legion; some of the more notable are Brainiac 5(Coluan)/Supergirl (Kryptonian), Colossal Boy (Human)/Yera (Durlan).
** Just about all major cast relationships are Cross-species; the Legion is compromised of tons of different species hanging out together 24/7, almost all raised with no species boundaries whatsoever.
** Despite their xenophobic culture Daxamites--like ComicBook/{{Valor}}--as a race are a result of this, they're the descendants of Kryptonian colonists who intermarried with the local race of Daxam which is now extinct.
* Mossy earth elemental ComicBook/SwampThing and his human wife Abigail Arcane. Played with considering the nearby town finds out and convicts her of {{bestiality|IsDepraved}}. Abby flees to Gotham City where the police hold her, causing Swamp Thing to go ballistic to free her. ComicBook/{{Batman}} finally talks the Mayor into giving in considering that if he wants to hold Abby for having a relationship outside their species, then he'd better arrest half the superhero community.
* ''ComicBook/{{Supergirl}}'':
** Since Kryptonians are all but extinct, this is the only kind of romance Kara can have unless she is willing to commit incest. Among her first boyfriends were Dick Malverne (a human), Brainiac 5 (a green-skinned Coluan), and Jerro (an Atlantean merboy).
** "ComicBook/TheSuperSteedOfSteel": Biron, a centaur turned into a horse (called Comet by Supergirl) develops a crush on Kara, who never becomes aware of his feelings.
** ''ComicBook/Supergirl2005'': In addition to Brainiac 5, she had a quasi-romantic friendship with Captain Boomerang (human) and a short-lived relationship with Apokolips native Power Boy. And had a crush on [[ComicBook/{{Nightwing}} Dick Grayson]].
** In the ''ComicBook/RedDaughterOfKrypton'' story arc, Red Lanterns Rankorr--a human--and Bleez--a winged, blue-skinned alien.
** Subverted in ''ComicBook/ElseworldsFinestSupergirlAndBatgirl''. Most people think Supergirl and Lex Luthor are together, but their relationship isn't romantic at all (and non-existent after the events of this story).
** In ''ComicBook/ManyHappyReturns'', human Supergirl Linda Danvers and Silver Age Superman fall in love and get married.
* ''ComicBook/TeenTitans'':
** ComicBook/{{Nightwing}} and the human/alien Koriandr of Tamaran, aka ComicBook/{{Starfire}}, in at least one continuity of Franchise/TheDCU, to the point that they're probably the second most famous example in comics after Superman and Lois Lane. She was the first of his girlfriends that he was quite blatantly implied to have had sex with, they've been engaged at least once, and they were even almost married once--as in, the only reason they aren't husband and wife is because fellow Titan Raven attacked the ceremony and killed the minister before he could complete it. Though they have drifted apart in modern continuity, both still remember and occasionally flirt with each other over their former connection. ''ComicBook/{{Convergence}}'' took it a step further; their Pre-Crisis counterparts never broke up and got married instead, and despite some difficulties, the two are still very much in love.
** Same goes for their fellow Titans, Beast Boy/Changeling ([[VoluntaryShapeshifting whatever he wants to be]]) and ComicBook/{{Raven}} (half demon.)
** There are other Titan couples as well, such as ComicBook/{{Superboy}} (human/alien hybrid) and ComicBook/WonderGirl (demigod).
* Several show up in ''ComicBook/SuperboyAndTheRavers'':
** The human Lindsay Wah is dating the extraterrestrial 12th Knight.
** After the human Hero comes out he starts dating the extraterrestrial {{Fish Pe|ople}}rson Leander.
** The extraterrestrial vampire Pyra starts dating the human Byron Stark.
* In ''ComicBook/SuperSons'' Annual #1, Streaky the Super-Cat is implied to have a crush on Comicbook/KryptoTheSuperdog.
* In ''[[ComicBook/HannaBarberaBeyond Exit Stage Left: The Snagglepuss Chronicles]]'', WesternAnimation/{{Snagglepuss}}'s male lover is human, as was [[WesternAnimation/TheHuckleberryHoundShow Huckleberry Hound]]'s. (Their [[TheBeard wives]] are the same species as themselves.) In addition, it turns out [[spoiler: Snagglepuss's father is human. His mother is briefly shown in a photograph as a FunnyAnimal mountain lion, like her son]].
* ''Franchise/WonderWoman'':
** Diana's traditional love interest, and in several continuities her HappilyMarried husband and the father of her daughter, is the human ComicBook/SteveTrevor while Diana is an Amazon demigod.
** ''ComicBook/WonderWoman1942'': Diana never actually dates either of them but throughout the Silver Age Ronno the Merman and "Wingo" the male harpy were infatuated with her and spend pretty much all of their time vying for her attention. She did go on a couple of idividual dates with each though, such as being Ronno's date to a dance.
** ''ComicBook/WonderWoman1987'': While Diana was an ambassador for Themyscira, one of those working with her was Ferdinand, a SupremeChef minotaur (or as he called himself, a kith-o-taur), who develops an attraction towards a human scientist named Leslie Anderson (who was helping Wonder Woman's enemy Silver Swan become a normal human again as per Diana's request). Leslie develops feelings for Ferdinand as well, but for some time both are unable to express it, leading to Ferdinand believing she feels no attraction towards him due to being a different species, but eventually they do officially become a couple.

!!Franchise/MarvelUniverse
* A notable storyline in ''ComicBook/TheAvengers'' had Mantis (human) married to a telepathic alien ''tree''.
* The Kree superhero ComicBook/{{Captain Marvel|MarvelComics}} loved many a GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe, which is why all three of his children were hybrids--Genis and Phyla (Kree/Eternal) and [[ComicBook/YoungAvengers Theodore "Teddy" Altman]] (Kree/Skrull).
** Teddy/Hulkling is married to fellow superhero Billy Kaplan/Wiccan, a mutant[[note]]Billy is also the son of the ComicBook/ScarletWitch, who was ''also'' married to a nonmutant[[/note]].
** Phyla and her human girlfriend Moondragon.
** The Captain Marvel of the ComicBook/UltimateMarvel universe is also an example, as he started a relation with Carol Danvers (a military woman with no powers in that universe).
* ''ComicBook/{{Deadpool}}'' was briefly married to an alien woman named Orksa who resembled an anthropomorphic yellow hippopotamus. They divorced on good terms so she could be with someone who loved her more than he did. Both her previous husband and her next one also appeared to be different species than her. He later got married to a [[SuccubiAndIncubi Succubus]] named Shiklah, who though she can appear mostly human, is actually a huge purple demon. Deadpool met her when Dracula hired Deadpool to bring her to him for their arranged marriage.
* In ''ComicBook/FantasticFour'', [[ComicBook/HumanTorch Johnny Storm]] and his former wife [[GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe Lyja]]. Johnny had thought that she was human when he married her--she's a [[{{Shapeshifting}} Skrull.]] In the ''ComicBook/MarvelComics2'' Universe they are still married and have a son, Torus.
* ComicBook/RocketRaccoon ([[SpeciesSurname take a wild guess what he is]]) and quite a wide variety of alien species. In his original mini-series, his girlfriend was Lylla (anthropomorphic otter). In his 2014 series he has been shown to have a brief relationship with Princess Lynx (alien, cat-girl). In the 2014 ''ComicBook/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy'' annual, Rocket is shown to have 3 sons (which he insists are nephews) whose mother is clearly some sort of blue skinned alien.
* The comic ''ComicBook/HowardTheDuck'' had Howard (intelligent talking duck from an alternate reality) and Beverly (human). This was played ''way'' too straight in [[Film/HowardTheDuck the movie]].
* ''ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk'': The Hulk (gamma-irradiated human) with Jarella (from K'ai) and Caiera (Shadow Person). He had two sons from his relationship with Caiera.
* [[ComicBook/SubMariner Namor]] (human/Atlantean hybrid) married GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe Marrina, but also found time to pursue the human (and all-too-married) ComicBook/InvisibleWoman.
** Namor and that lake-monster queen from Tabula Rasa
--->'''Hope''': Ick! Ick! Ick!
--->'''Namor''': You are only showing your parochialism and prejudice. She is a dignified queen of a noble people. [[ThirdPersonPerson Namor]] is nothing if not cosmopolitan in his tastes.
*** On a more amusing note, he then immediately, and surprisingly gently, turns down Hope's nascent interest, because she's a teenager. Cosmopolitan Namor may be, but EveryoneHasStandards.
** Also, there's been flirting and suggestions of future hookups between Namor and Hepzibah (an alien skunk woman. Well originally a skunk woman; a lot of artists these days tend to draw her as a CatGirl or even just a [[HumanAliens palette-swapped human]], but whatever).
** Atlanteans in the MU are a branch of the human race, so this would me more like interSUBspecies romance.
** Namor, as implied above, is the result of one of these pairings: human father and Atlantean mother. His cousin Namora has a human mother and Atlantean father. As they're effectively the only members of their kind, most any romance they pursue (aside from [[KissingCousins each other]]) qualifies.
* ComicBook/{{Nova}} (human) and GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe (literally) ComicBook/{{Gamora}}, in ''ComicBook/{{Annihilation}}''. Before (and after) Gamora, Rider was with Namorita (Atlantian Mutant/Clone). Namorita's metamorphosis into Kymera (much less human looking form, resulting from her ancient Atlantean DNA) didn't ruin this relationship.
* Depending on which origin story you actually believe, Rictor (human) and Shatterstar (alien-ish.) are this.
* ComicBook/RomSpaceKnight was in love with the Terran Brandy. On the plus side, Rom is a Galadorian, basically a branch of the human race. On the minus side, he'd been cyborged into an all-covering suit of plandanium armor. On the plus side, it was theoretically possible for him to become a normal man again. Still, whether Rom and Brandy count as an interspecies liaison is a judgement call.
* Karolina (Majesdanian) and Xavin (Skrull) in ''ComicBook/{{Runaways}}''. When Xavin was PutOnABus, Karolina and Julie Power (human) started going out.
* ComicBook/ScarletWitch (mutant) was married to the android ComicBook/TheVision for many years. Her brother ComicBook/{{Quicksilver}} married ComicBook/{{the Inhuman|s}} princess Crystal.
** The former might not be an example, since the Vision ''might'' have been designed to be compatible. Is an artificial person of human design a different species? As for Crystal and Pietro, the Inhumans and mutants are two branches of one breed anyway, so that doesn't really fit the trope.
** Later, Crystal was remarried to Ronan the Accuser (Kree).
* ''ComicBook/SpiderHam'', being set in an AnthropomorphicAnimalAdaptation of the Franchise/MarvelUniverse, had several examples of relationships happening between separate species.
** Spider-Ham himself is a spider who mutated into the form of an anthropomorphic pig and has pursued relationships with a bat named Batty Brant, a water buffalo named Mary Jane Waterbuffalo, a catfish vigilante known as the Black Catfish, and a crane named Mary Crane Watsow, the last one he even ends up marrying and having a daughter with.
** One of the back-up stories in ''Peter Porker: The Spectacular Spider-Ham'' showed this continuities' counterparts of Ant-Man and the Wasp (who were HappilyMarried at the time) as an ant named [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment Ant-Ant]] and a rabbit named Waspbunny.
** The third issue of ''What The--?!'' had a spoof of ''Kraven's Last Hunt'' where Spider-Ham demanded his
own pages:
[[index]]
graphic novel, only to be vexed by a story where Mary Jane Waterbuffalo leaves him to get married with Raven the Hunter.
* InterspeciesRomance/TheDCU
''Franchise/SpiderMan'' himself is a story about Peter Parker, a man who is transformed via radioactive spider-bite into an enhanced human being and an entirely new kind of species, and Peter exclusively dates human women. Most notably, his relationship with ''ComicBook/MaryJaneWatson'' has led in ''ComicBook/SpiderIsland'' to her acquiring immunity from the virus of the story that gives everyone in New York spider-powers, because as Reed Richards put it, she and Peter had a long sexual relationship that gave her an immunity. Averted in ''ComicBook/SpiderManReign'' an AU story where [[spoiler:MJ dies after contracting STD from Peter's radioactive body fluids.]]
* InterspeciesRomance/MarvelUniverse

'''Other'''
''ComicBook/WerewolfByNight'''s Jack Russell (a werewolf) has had several long term relationships with human women.
* ''ComicBook/XMen'':
** ComicBook/ProfessorX and the Shi'ar Empress Lilandra. Made worse by the fact that Lilandra is descended from ''avian'' stock, Charles from primate stock. OTOH, the Celestials might have reengineered both breeds to make them compatible. The Shi'ar seem more primate-like than evolution would plausibly manage... certainly, while they do eventually have a child, it's by genetic engineering and artificial gestation than anything 'natural'.
** For a long time, ComicBook/{{Dazzler}} (human mutant) and her husband, ComicBook/{{Longshot}} (interdimensional alien). Since their divorce, Longshot seems to have jumped on the BoldlyComing bandwagon of interdimensional relations.
** ComicBook/{{Nightcrawler}} (mutant) and Cerise (Shi'ar).
** Broo (brood) is in love with Idie (human mutant) and in their first meeting he even proposed to her.
** ''ComicBook/AstonishingXMen'': ComicBook/{{Beast|MarvelComics}}/Brand. Complicated, since he's a human mutant who became more animalistic as he got older and now looks like a giant blue cat, and she looks mostly human and is actually half-alien. Apparently her dad was a huge blue furry thing, which [[DaddysGirl takes it into even more perverted territory]].
* One of the most extreme cases in the Marvel Universe was Thena (one of the Eternals) and Kro (one of the Deviants), a true [[StarCrossedLovers Montague and Capulet romance]], seeing as their two races were sworn enemies. He's not the only Deviant she's hooked up with, either.

** The ''Rogue Squadron'' series had a romance between a Calamari and a Quarren: [[DefectingForLove Romeo & Juliet]] [-[[RecycledINSPACE IN SPACE!]]-], in short. And in one arc it was implied that Janson and Hobbie slept with a pair of Bothans.
** One of the most prominent romances of the ''Clone Wars'' comics was between Jedi Masters Tholme (human) and T'ra Saa (Neti). Neti are extremely long lived, [[VoluntaryShapeshifting shapeshifting]] ''{{plant|Aliens}}s''.
** At least one of the comics set during the prequels had a fair bit of ShipTease between the aquatic Kit Fisto and Twi'Lek hottie Ayla Secura. Talk about Naughty Tentacles...
*** It's pretty much taken for granted in the Franchise/StarWars universe that Twi'lek women are desired by males of all species - and yes, it often really ''is'' due to their "naughty" ''lekku'', which can be trained to perform sensual functions. It was used rather disturbingly in A. C. Crispin's novel ''The Hutt Gambit'', where a young Han Solo is [[AbhorrentAdmirer (to his chagrin)]] leered at by an ''elderly'' female Twi'lek.
** Cade Skywalker (Human) and Deliah Blue (Zeltron) from ''ComicBook/{{Legacy}}''.
** Zayne Carrick (Human) and Zareal (Arkanian off-shoot) from ''ComicBook/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic''.
** Lucien Dray (Human) and Q'Anila (Miraluka) from the same series.

'''DC'''
* ''Franchise/{{Superman}}'':
** ComicBook/{{Lois|Lane}} and Clark are probably the most famous example of interpecies romance (even though he's a {{Human Alien|s}} Kryptonians were, up until Flashpoint, biologically different enough from humans that they and humans couldn't reproduce).
** The Creator/LarryNiven essay ''[[http://www.rawbw.com/~svw/superman.html Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex]]'' goes into quite a bit of detail on the various issues regarding Kal-El's sex life, possibly farther than some would prefer.
** In ''ComicBook/KryptonNoMore'', Superman wonders whether he can have a relationship with a human woman despite being an alien outcast.
** Superman also had a relationship with Franchise/WonderWoman in the ''ComicBook/KingdomCome'' mini-series and in the ''ComicBook/{{New 52}}''.
** DC once printed an {{Elseworld}} story (back when they were still called "Imaginary Stories") where ComicBook/LoisLane had been killed after Franchise/{{Superman}} settled down and had a daughter with her. At one point, he created a robot duplicate of her, which proved to be all too lifelike. Apparently, UncannyValley doesn't faze some people.
* The eventual romance and implied sexual relationship between ComicBook/JimmyOlsen (human, with some plot-related variations) and the Forager ([[GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe really hot female purple-skinned alien bounty hunter humanoid INSECT]]) in ''ComicBook/CountdownToFinalCrisis''.
* Toyed with in Creator/FrankMiller's ''ComicBook/TheDarkKnightStrikesAgain'', where Hal Jordan [[spoiler: whose control over his powers now renders him virtually omnipotent]], has left Earth and is now living [[spoiler: on Mars]], where he lives a happy, wholesome family life with his wife and son. Unlike most examples of this trope, the [[spoiler: Martians]] are not rendered physically attractive or appealing in any way; Hal Jordan instead uses his power [[spoiler: to make himself a Martian, completely capable of maintaining the form indefinitely, as well as capable of breeding with other Martians]], and is extremely reluctant to return to Earth [[spoiler: after receiving Batman's transmission]], until his wife urges him to help his own people. He only reverts back to his human form after he has already left [[spoiler: Mars]], and is quick to return as soon as his business on Earth has been finished [[spoiler: which involved him multiplying his size to that of many times the Earth, able to grasp the entire planet in his fist, crushing Lex Luthor's planet wide multi-trillion dollar WMD satellite network while leaving the planet itself unharmed.]]
* ''ComicBook/DoomPatrol'' villain the Brain ([[BrainInAJar a disembodied human brain]]) is in a relationship with Monsieur Mallah ([[EverythingsBetterWithMonkeys a genetically altered super intelligent gorilla]]).
* ''Franchise/GreenLantern'':
** John Stewart married Katma Tui (alien) and had a long-standing relationship with Merayn Dethalis (also alien).
** The [[Characters/GLGreenLanternCorps Green Lantern Corps]] seems rife with this. Hal Jordan and Arisia, Kyle Rayner and Soranik Natu, and when you bear in mind that nearly every member of the Corps is a different species, when relationships between members of the Corps were banned over 200 resigned in protest.
* ''ComicBook/LegionOfSuperHeroes'': there are a lot of interspecies romances in the Legion; some of the more notable are Brainiac 5(Coluan)/Supergirl (Kryptonian), Colossal Boy (Human)/Yera (Durlan).
** Just about all major cast relationships are Cross-species; the Legion is compromised of tons of different species hanging out together 24/7, almost all raised with no species boundaries whatsoever.
** Despite their xenophobic culture Daxamites--like ComicBook/{{Valor}}--as a race are a result of this, they're the descendants of Kryptonian colonists who intermarried with the local race of Daxam which is now extinct.
* Mossy earth elemental ComicBook/SwampThing and his human wife Abigail Arcane. Played with considering the nearby town finds out and convicts her of {{bestiality|IsDepraved}}. Abby flees to Gotham City where the police hold her, causing Swamp Thing to go ballistic to free her. Franchise/{{Batman}} finally talks the Mayor into giving in considering that if he wants to hold Abby for having a relationship outside their species, then he'd better arrest half the superhero community--such as [[ComicBook/MartianManhunter the Martian]], [[ComicBook/{{Starfire}} the Tamaranean]], and, oh, [[Franchise/{{Superman}} that guy in Metropolis.]] The Mayor's [[OhCrap expression]] conveyed all that needed to be said about how ''insane'' a move that would be.
* ''ComicBook/{{Supergirl}}'':
** Since Kryptonians are all but extinct, this is the only kind of romance Kara can have unless she is willing to commit incest. Among her first boyfriends were Dick Malverne (a human), Brainiac 5 (a green-skinned Coluan), and Jerro (an Atlantean merboy).
** ComicBook/PostCrisis universe: In addition to Brainiac 5 (mentioned above), she had a quasi-romantic friendship with [[Franchise/TheFlash Captain Boomerang]] (human) and a short-lived relationship with Apokolips native Power Boy. And had a crush on [[ComicBook/{{Nightwing}} Dick Grayson]], but that [[MrFanservice hardly counts]].
** In the ''ComicBook/RedDaughterOfKrypton'' story arc, [[Characters/GLRedLanternCorps Red Lanterns]] Rankorr--a human--and Bleez--a winged, blue-skinned alien.
** Subverted in ''ComicBook/ElseworldsFinestSupergirlAndBatgirl''. Most people think Supergirl and Lex Luthor are together, but their relationship isn't romantic at all (and non-existent after the events of this story).
** In ''ComicBook/ManyHappyReturns'', human Supergirl Linda Danvers and Silver Age Superman fall in love and get married.
* ''ComicBook/TeenTitans'':
** ComicBook/{{Nightwing}} and the human/alien Koriandr of Tamaran, aka ComicBook/{{Starfire}}, in at least one continuity of Franchise/TheDCU, to the point that they're probably the second most famous example in comics after Superman and Lois Lane. She was the first of his girlfriends that he was quite blatantly implied to have had sex with, they've been engaged at least once, and they were even almost married once--as in, the only reason they aren't husband and wife is because fellow Titan Raven attacked the ceremony and killed the minister before he could complete it. Though they have drifted apart in modern continuity, both still remember and occasionally flirt with each other over their former connection. ''ComicBook/{{Convergence}}'' took it a step further; their Pre-Crisis counterparts never broke up and got married instead, and despite some difficulties, the two are still very much in love.
** Same goes for their fellow Titans, Beast Boy/Changeling ([[VoluntaryShapeshifting whatever he wants to be]]) and ComicBook/{{Raven}} (half demon.)
** There are other Titan couples as well, such as ComicBook/{{Superboy}} (human/alien hybrid) and ComicBook/WonderGirl (demigod).
* Several show up in ''ComicBook/SuperboyAndTheRavers'':
** The human Lindsay Wah is dating the extraterrestrial 12th Knight.
** After the human Hero comes out he starts dating the extraterrestrial {{Fish Pe|ople}}rson Leander.
** The extraterrestrial vampire Pyra starts dating the human Byron Stark.
* In ''ComicBook/SuperSons'' Annual #1, Streaky the Super-Cat is implied to have a crush on Comicbook/KryptoTheSuperdog.
* In ''[[ComicBook/HannaBarberaBeyond Exit Stage Left: The Snagglepuss Chronicles]]'', WesternAnimation/{{Snagglepuss}}'s male lover is human, as was [[WesternAnimation/TheHuckleberryHoundShow Huckleberry Hound]]'s. (Their [[TheBeard wives]] are the same species as themselves.) In addition, it turns out [[spoiler: Snagglepuss's father is human. His mother is briefly shown in a photograph as a FunnyAnimal mountain lion, like her son]].
* ''Franchise/WonderWoman'':
** Diana's traditional love interest, and in several continuities her HappilyMarried husband and the father of her daughter, is the human ComicBook/SteveTrevor while Diana is an Amazon demigod.
** ''ComicBook/WonderWoman1942'': Diana never actually dates either of them but throughout the Silver Age Ronno the Merman and "Wingo" the male harpy were infatuated with her and spend pretty much all of their time vying for her attention. She did go on a couple of idividual dates with each though, such as being Ronno's date to a dance.
** ''ComicBook/WonderWoman1987'': While Diana was an ambassador for Themyscira, one of those working with her was Ferdinand, a SupremeChef minotaur (or as he called himself, a kith-o-taur), who develops an attraction towards a human scientist named Leslie Anderson (who was helping Wonder Woman's enemy Silver Swan become a normal human again as per Diana's request). Leslie develops feelings for Ferdinand as well, but for some time both are unable to express it, leading to Ferdinand believing she feels no attraction towards him due to being a different species, but eventually they do officially become a couple.

'''Marvel'''
* A notable storyline in ''ComicBook/TheAvengers'' had Mantis (human) married to a telepathic alien ''tree''.
* The Kree superhero ComicBook/CaptainMarVell loved many a GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe, which is why all three of his children were hybrids--Genis and Phyla (Kree/Eternal) and [[ComicBook/{{Hulkling}} Theodore "Teddy" Altman]] (Kree/Skrull).
** Teddy[=/=]Hulkling is engaged to fellow superhero Billy Kaplan/ ComicBook/{{Wiccan}}, a mutant[[note]]Billy is also the son of the ComicBook/ScarletWitch, who was ''also'' married to a nonmutant[[/note]].
** Phyla and her human girlfriend Moondragon.
** The Captain Marvel of the ComicBook/UltimateMarvel universe is also an example, as he started a relation with Carol Danvers (a military woman with no powers in that universe).
* ''ComicBook/{{Deadpool}}'' was briefly married to an alien woman named Orksa who resembled an anthropomorphic yellow hippopotamus. They divorced on good terms so she could be with someone who loved her more than he did. Both her previous husband and her next one also appeared to be different species than her. He later got married to a [[HornyDevils Succubus]] named Shiklah, who though she can appear mostly human, is actually a huge purple demon. Deadpool met her when Dracula hired Deadpool to bring her to him for their arranged marriage.
* In ''ComicBook/FantasticFour'', [[ComicBook/HumanTorch Johnny Storm]] and his former wife [[GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe Lyja]]. Johnny had thought that she was human when he married her--she's a [[{{Shapeshifting}} Skrull.]] In the ''ComicBook/MarvelComics2'' Universe they are still married and have a son, Torus.
* ComicBook/RocketRaccoon ([[SpeciesSurname take a wild guess what he is]]) and quite a wide variety of alien species. In his original mini-series, his girlfriend was Lylla (anthropomorphic otter). In his 2014 series he has been shown to have a brief relationship with Princess Lynx (alien, cat-girl). In the 2014 ''ComicBook/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy'' annual, Rocket is shown to have 3 sons (which he insists are nephews) whose mother is clearly some sort of blue skinned alien.
* The comic ''ComicBook/HowardTheDuck'' had Howard (intelligent talking duck from an alternate reality) and Beverly (human). This was played ''way'' too straight in [[Film/HowardTheDuck the movie]].
* The ComicBook/IncredibleHulk (gamma-irradiated human) with Jarella (from K'ai) and Caiera (Shadow Person). He had two sons from his relationship with Caiera.
* [[ComicBook/SubMariner Namor]] (human/Atlantean hybrid) married GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe Marrina, but also found time to pursue the human (and all-too-married) ComicBook/InvisibleWoman.
** Namor and that lake-monster queen from Tabula Rasa
--->'''Hope''': Ick! Ick! Ick!
--->'''Namor''': You are only showing your parochialism and prejudice. She is a dignified queen of a noble people. [[ThirdPersonPerson Namor]] is nothing if not cosmopolitan in his tastes.
** Also, there's been flirting and suggestions of future hookups between Namor and Hepzibah (an alien skunk woman. Well originally a skunk woman; a lot of artists these days tend to draw her as a CatGirl or even just a [[HumanAliens palette-swapped human]], but whatever).
** Atlanteans in the MU are a branch of the human race, so this would me more like interSUBspecies romance.
** Namor, as implied above, is the result of one of these pairings: human father and Atlantean mother. His cousin Namora has a human mother and Atlantean father. As they're effectively the only members of their kind, most any romance they pursue (aside from [[KissingCousins each other]]) qualifies.
* ComicBook/{{Nova}} (human) and GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe (literally) ComicBook/{{Gamora}}, in ''ComicBook/{{Annihilation}}''. Before (and after) Gamora, Rider was with Namorita (Atlantian Mutant/Clone). Namorita's metamorphosis into Kymera (much less human looking form, resulting from her ancient Atlantean DNA) didn't ruin this relationship.
* Depending on which origin story you actually believe, Rictor (human) and Shatterstar (alien-ish.) are this.
* ComicBook/RomSpaceKnight was in love with the Terran Brandy. On the plus side, Rom is a Galadorian, basically a branch of the human race. On the minus side, he'd been cyborged into an all-covering suit of plandanium armor. On the plus side, it was theoretically possible for him to become a normal man again. Still, whether Rom and Brandy count as an interspecies liaison is a judgement call.
* Karolina (Majesdanian) and Xavin (Skrull) in ''ComicBook/{{Runaways}}''. When Xavin was PutOnABus, Karolina and Julie Power (human) started going out.
* ComicBook/ScarletWitch (mutant) was married to the android ComicBook/TheVision for many years. Her brother ComicBook/{{Quicksilver}} married ComicBook/{{the Inhuman|s}} princess Crystal.
** The former might not be an example, since the Vision ''might'' have been designed to be compatible. Is an artificial person of human design a different species? As for Crystal and Pietro, the Inhumans and mutants are two branches of one breed anyway, so that doesn't really fit the trope.
** Later, Crystal was remarried to Ronan the Accuser (Kree).
* ''ComicBook/SpiderHam'', being set in an AnthropomorphicAnimalAdaptation of the Franchise/MarvelUniverse, had several examples of relationships happening between separate species.
** Spider-Ham himself is a spider who mutated into the form of an anthropomorphic pig and has pursued relationships with a bat named Batty Brant, a water buffalo named Mary Jane Waterbuffalo, a catfish vigilante known as the Black Catfish, and a crane named Mary Crane Watsow, the last one he even ends up marrying and having a daughter with.
** One of the back-up stories in ''Peter Porker: The Spectacular Spider-Ham'' showed this continuities' counterparts of Ant-Man and the Wasp (who were HappilyMarried at the time) as an ant named [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment Ant-Ant]] and a rabbit named Waspbunny.
** The third issue of ''What The--?!'' had a spoof of ''Kraven's Last Hunt'' where Spider-Ham demanded his own graphic novel, only to be vexed by a story where Mary Jane Waterbuffalo leaves him to get married with Raven the Hunter.
* ''Franchise/SpiderMan'' himself is a story about Peter Parker, a man who is transformed via radioactive spider-bite into an enhanced human being and an entirely new kind of species, and Peter exclusively dates human women. Most notably, his relationship with ''ComicBook/MaryJaneWatson'' has led in ''ComicBook/SpiderIsland'' to her acquiring immunity from the virus of the story that gives everyone in New York spider-powers, because as Reed Richards put it, she and Peter had a long sexual relationship that gave her an immunity. Averted in ''ComicBook/SpiderManReign'' an AU story where [[spoiler:MJ dies after contracting STD from Peter's radioactive body fluids.]]
* ''ComicBook/WerewolfByNight'''s Jack Russell (a werewolf) has had several long term relationships with human women.
* ''ComicBook/XMen'':
** ComicBook/ProfessorX and the Shi'ar Empress Lilandra. Made worse by the fact that Lilandra is descended from ''avian'' stock, Charles from primate stock. OTOH, the Celestials might have reengineered both breeds to make them compatible. The Shi'ar seem more primate-like than evolution would plausibly manage...
** For a long time, ComicBook/{{Dazzler}} (human mutant) and her husband, ComicBook/{{Longshot}} (interdimensional alien). Since their divorce, Longshot seems to have jumped on the BoldlyComing bandwagon of interdimensional relations.
** ComicBook/{{Nightcrawler}} (mutant) and Cerise (Shi'ar).
** Broo (brood) is in love with Idie (human mutant) and in their first meeting he even proposed to her.
** ''ComicBook/AstonishingXMen'': ComicBook/{{Beast|MarvelComics}}/Brand. Complicated, since he's a human mutant who became more animalistic as he got older and now looks like a giant blue cat, and she looks mostly human and is actually half-alien. Apparently her dad was a huge blue furry thing, which [[DaddysGirl takes it into even more perverted territory]].
* One of the most extreme cases in the Marvel Universe was Thena (one of the Eternals) and Kro (one of the Deviants), a true [[StarCrossedLovers Montague and Capulet romance]], seeing as their two races were sworn enemies.

For some reason, when comics fans discuss this, they only focus on the fact that they're gay. Considering they're a crack pairing from the start, there's really not much else to discuss. Except maybe what poking a brain with THAT feels like. Interestingly, there are no nerve endings in the brain for registering pain. That means Mallah could do anything he wanted to with the Brain, and he would never feel it.

** It expands to "No Bio''mechanical'' Barriers". The same arc suggests Bunnie, who is ''robotic from the waist down'', will have children, too!
*** Actually in certain continuities, Belle and Jacques (Bunnie's kids) could actually be born normally (so to speak) as Bunnie is cured of her robotization...though given that plotline, some fans [[FanonDiscontinuity will likely ignore it]].
