    Default What's Coming For This Board

    Welcome again, everyone!

    Okay, this board looks like it's mostly ME right now, but that's only because we've been doing this a little bit in secret to start. The idea behind the boards is about the readers, not one creator or one run of the comic.

    What we want to do here is talk about ALL the aspects of the Wonderverse, its creators, and its readers and viewers. Classic runs, and underrated runs of the comics are a big focus, but we also want to talk about WW in film and other media.

    What we have up here is just a taste of what's coming, with our first mini-interviews and some totally unseen Aaron Lopresti cover sketches and designs. We have lots, lots more interviews already on the way, we have some art coming that hasn't been seen anywhere, including some designed especially for this board, and we have some fun things like script excerpts from some very familiar Wonder Woman names. And we'll have guests, including a few that never frequent message boards. We're going to have at least two regular columns by two of my favorite WW commentators. Lots of surprises, too!

    But really, we want the board to be completely interactive. I have no doubt that the best and most interesting additions will come from you guys reading this.

    Please feel free to post art, threads, criticism, whatever. Not all threads have to focus exclusively on Wonder Woman. Very shortly, I hope to get out of the way and just be a participant like everyone else.

    Please help our mod, aegisbearer, by using good manners. We're all Wonder Fans, and we all want a great place to hang. Criticism is ALWAYS FINE, just please be civil to one another, okay?

    That's it, please enjoy, and be as creative as you like.

    Wonder Welcome!

    Starting a "grassroots" movement getting fans involved in Wonder Woman is a good start. For far too long people say WW is part of the big 3, but it was rarely shown in that light. Starting this board is a good start to show fans why WW is a good character.

    That's a good point, BYC. Greg Rucka makes an excellent point that many people see Diana as fractured, because of the different versions of her.


    Part of the plan here is to CELEBRATE those different versions, to look at them and show what was great about them. I don't want a board about me at all, I want a board about the Wonderverse in all its diversity.

    At long last, the Wonder Woman board returns! No more being enfolded in the DCU forum or even YABS (love it though I may). Diana deserves her own forum for discussion, celebration, and art exchange!

    For the Glory of Gaea!
