    Default Now that the Amazons are "Back" ....

    .. Will we finally get to see Teenage super chicks in the DCU going to Themyscira for some training?

    Because when you think about it, its kinda logical
    For instance, its hard to believe that Ollie would not arrange for Mia to get some Amazonian Archery training..
    and so on..

    I think Gail still has to obsolve the Amazons of their "genocide" on American soil before anyone can just start hanging out on Themyscira.

    Frankly, I'd just as soon not have Themysicra such a tourist destination. Like Aquaman's Atlantis, it just becomes silly if we try to pretend like it's just another country.

    Yeah, let´s keep the thing a bit exclusive.

    That´s the problem of going public, next thing you know, there´ll be amazons by the side of the road selling Hera statues (and hats) to the tourists....:rolleyes:

    I for one don't mind it being a tourist destination. Really shows that the DC Universe is, well, a universe and has its own varying countries or places of interest that affect its populations.

    I hope not. Just because you’re a woman with powers doesn’t mean you are an Amazon. Being an Amazon is a way of life that requires fiedity certain people and principles that Wonder Woman and the rest live by.

    It also requires someone to be a Greco-Roman classical religion convert. Knowing the Greek gods exist isn’t enough an amazon has to belive in them as well. Being an Amazon is a rare special thing and just because you have two x chromosomes doesn't mean you get to be one or benifit from their training.

    I liked the idea of Themyscira having a university that hosted students from all over the world/universe. I wish that would come back.

    OTOH, opening Themyscira to the world would allow hetero amazons to get sexed more often.

    I take back my original post.

    Not really. From what I understand Gail brought back the Greek gods with no explanation whatsoever. Also Supergirl and Wonder Girl TOOK ON THE US MILITARY, DOWNED AIRFORCE ONE AND DAMN NEAR KILLED THE PRSIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES with no fallout whatsoever on their end as the writers wisely ignored that plot line. Just because something was published recently does not mean its in continuity or canon.
