Good move by DC , I see there is a effort to remove some of the "implied" missandry of WW origins, lets hope the rest of the amazons are never again portrayed as man haters or boy-killers.
Now DC, find her a good boyfriend,and no, not Superman or Batman please, at this point it would feel as weird as french-kissing her own brothers.Last edited by G.I.JOSE; 10-10-2011 at 07:40 AM. Reason: typo

Jesus, really? :facepalm:
Well, here's hoping the Earth-2 JSA series by Robinson has the classic Wonder Woman for my WW fix.

I am simply outraged!
Brian Azzarello raped my childhood!
Seriously, though, I think the idea's cool.
Always remember this stuff isn't real.

I like this move by DC. It makes more sense. I never got into Wonder Woman because her origin was always convoluted. This changes things. Brian is a blessing to this book.

I don't know.
I don't have a problem with her being a demigod, I'm just not of a fan of it being Zeus.

Marvel and DC are never able to keep it in their pants, figuratively speaking. You see "Who is Diana's father?" and shit, once the question comes up, it's a little hard to not guess correctly. And sure enough, none of Azzarello's quotes out and out say anything like that. What's wrong with having people read the book?

Yeah them women-folk all need a good man. That's whats wrong with the world, all that girl-loving Amazons and fatherless magic clay babies. Originally Posted by G.I.JOSE

I think it was pretty obvious this was coming. I'm in different to it myself, I couldn't careless whether she's made of clay or born the natural way, she's still Wonder Woman to me.
