    Thank you for posting this! I love the chiding about the enthusiasm for the New Gods. The bit about "robust internal life" reminds me of what Rucka said in response to why he didn't give Diana...

    It's funny you say that, because the first thing I thought of when I saw the gatefold cover was the 1978 Wonder Woman spectacular, in which WW "defeats war with love" by kissing this dude wearing the...

    If Lobdell were announced as the next writer, I would consider dropping the comic. And the only other time I've dropped WW was after she was "wiped out of DC history" in Crisis on Infinite Earths,...

    Gah. I haven't seen Silver Lining's Playbook, so I can't attest to her Oscar-winning performance, but I thought she was mediocre in the Hunger Games and a little worse in that X-men: First Class...

    No, I wouldn't. I even refrain from checking his books out of the library, because that encourages the library to keep his texts. And as the first piece I ever read by Card was a lengthy diatribe...
  6. The tiniest bit of news about Morrison's WW project

    From Newsarama:



    Nrama: You’ve made it clear you’re in a transitory phase of your career, although you've also said you're not leaving the DCU forever. But you have indicated changes ahead....

    The art is unfortunate.

    It's an odd choice to have Diana say "My own kin would lure us into a trap?" Isn't that what she's been learning for most of the past 16 issues of her own title?
  8. Is this the second time Brian Cunningham has fired Gail Simone?

    I noticed that he was an editor of Gail's last story arc of WW (and throughout the JMS/Hester year).

    I mean, it's probably coincidence. It's probably not a pattern. It's just a weird thing I...

    Cool! I've never seen it and always wanted to. I know to expect it to be terrible, but I'd still like to waste that hour or so of my life.

    Hm. That's an interesting idea, something we sort of saw in the Sandman a long time ago, with Destruction becoming tired of its role and simply walking away, retiring to Earth.

    The death of Ares in Gail's run was pathetic and anticlimactic, and it was not at all the way one of Diana's greatest foes should meet his end.

    I'm just echoing the current sentiments, but the echo is genuine: that's a beautiful cover.

    And I know they aren't thematically the same, but it instantly reminded me of the run of covers in the...

    What I think is awesome about the First Born's story is that it gives Hera greater motivation to kill the children Zeus has by other women.

    I'm guessing she's a one-off for Azz, but not necessarily for a future writer, since she's apparently dead (or shed that body, anyway). I loved the idea of the 1st born's tale being tatooed on her...

    When reading this issue, I was struck by how often Diana was "wrong" in this issue and how determined she is to feel guilty.

    1) Diana wants to stay with Superman, and Batman corrects her, telling...

    Rucka did this already with a different diety, with Athena taking Zeus' throne. Honestly, I think Athena is a more logical choice, and I wish it had stuck past Rucka, but iirc, Simone was told to...

    It sounds more like the Diana I like. I thought Di would be trying to cut off the Cheetah's head.

    It also sounds like Di & Barbara were friends previously?
