My Favorite Version of Wonder-Woman has got to be from the Justice League and JLU cartoons, because the amount of love and care the character was written with was so lovely to watch. Wonder Woman in those cartoons was dignified, kind, sophisticated, and strong but not overtly angry. Her design was great too, as she wasn't skinny or grossly muscular but looked like a strong healthy woman (plus Wonder Woman and Batman being an Item was the greatest and coolest thing no one ever thought about till Bruce Timm came along)

You're not quite getting what Mala's gripe with Diana is. She's not just angry that Diana took her sweet ride, she's angry because for thousands of years, she's been the champion. And as the strongest fighter, she gets to sleep with the princess. She's pissed because the princess, her trophy, who is supposed to submit to her, is showing independence, taking her other status symbol, and running off with a man. Mala is a perversion of Marston's "Loving Submission" philosophy. She doesn't understand that the submission has to be given from a place of love and trust, not taken by force every year.

Just to clarify. The black man is not Diana's boyfriend "We never play him as Wonder Woman’s ‘boyfriend’. He himself considers this immortal Princess ‘out of my league’, and she has no context for romance with a mortal man. They appear to be good friends. We almost showed Steve’s ordinary human fiancee in Volume 2 but preferred to leave his sexuality undisclosed. He’s Diana’s tough, dependable pal and that’s all he needs to be." - Grant Morrison the writer

I've always thought Wonder Woman's costume is extremely practical. Since she virtually invincible, wearing "armour" is like wearing heavy tissue paper, there's absolutely no reason to wear any armour except for keeping her modesty. And if you want to balance modesty with mobility, covering her torso and exposing her limbs provide her with the maximum amount of mobility while keeping her body covered. There's absolutely no reason for her to wear anything more into battle.

As a lifelong Wonder Woman fan, I hated this story. I loved the art, the way the island looked, and that he had them be advanced in technology, but it pissed me off that he turned the Amazons into villains. They are supposed to be a loving family for her, instead he made them way more like the New 52 version that none of the Wondy fans like. Hippolyta was amazing in Post Crisis, but he made her completely unlikable. It also pissed me off that he made Hercules her father. Hercules, Hippolyta's rapist! What a disgrace. Gail Simone showed how bad that would be in one of her issues. I also despised the way he portrayed Diana. He doesn't understand her character at all. Perez had a great origin story for the Amazons and great Amazon characters, while Rucka was able to get the complexities of her character - the warrior and the healer. The live action movie portrayed her complexities perfectly, Morrison didn't. After his comments on the BVS trailer about him not liking the warrior side of the character, I was afraid this would suck, but I didn't think he would fuck her up this bad. He said he was bringing the character back to her roots, but that's kind of bullshit. All he brought back was the Amazon tech, the kangas, and the weird bondage, but he ruined almost everything else. In the original version, the Amazons were kind, loving, and peaceful. Like the female version of the Air Nomads on Avatar the Last Airbender (before they became more warlike in the Post Crisis reboot). In this story, Morrison made the Amazons completely unlikable and prejudice. They are supposed to believe in love and equality, not judge other women by how they look. He also took away her clay origin.

Rape in ancient Greece & Rome was very ambiguous meaning, not just focusing on sexual assault but could be considered something like theft, abduction and kidnapping *sometimes* with the context of committing a sexual encounter. So all the times you hear about rape in ancient Greek literature don't always think of the modern idea of the word. Marston was just a kinky guy, the bracelets were a reference to his lover Olive, who he and his wife(who knew and gave her permission) lived with. They were open to doing bondage.

As a huge Wonder Woman fan (she being my favorite superhero) I sort of like and hate this story. The art work is fabulous I agree the gorgon is amazing, I love that Grant Morrison brought back the purple rays and the kangaroos which is hysterical. The culture looks Grecian-futuristic which is cool and Etta Candy is kind of funny (?). However, to me Morrison doesn't get Diana. The amazons are assholes not the loving and peaceful warriors I love they honestly remind me more of the Bana or like their New 52, Hippolyta is just a man hater who takes things WAY too far, Diana walked around pompous acting all better in man world and almost like a defiant teenager on Themyscira, instead of a person of compassion, justice, and humbled royalty with a unity with her sisters who helped raise her. Plus there was hardly a story for me here. Also nit-pick, I HATE Wonder Woman wasn't molded from clay and has a father. I will prefer George Perez's origin in God's and Mortals, though Greg Rucka my favorite Wonder Woman writer (and was supposed to write WW Earth One) is doing some great things that I love in DC Rebirth. Also, Marguerite Bennett's DC Bombshells WW origin is also pretty cool. Sorry, I have a lot of feelings regarding Wonder Woman.

I really liked the story (big Grant Morrison fan so it would be kind of a given). But what I really care about is how the story is told and it's structure not if it's too feminist or not feminist enough. To be completely honest I could care less about all of that, a good story is a good story and this is one of the better modern Wonder Woman stories I've read in a while. The art is beautiful and I was never confused by the panel layouts. I also prefer this interpretation of the Amazons as I was never a fan of them being portrayed as blood drunk lunatics. And as everyone has pointed out below me, Beth is related to Etta Candy who is part of WW's lore. As for the bondage, Marston, as far as what I got out of the stuff I've read about him seems to have been into bondage play with his wife and their mutual lover (which is fine) so that's why the Amazons like to tie people up including each other. It's just a fetish. Oh and pants would be more restrictive in battle so I'm glad they kept to the classic look.
@agashi3368 жыл бұрын
Pants might be more restrictive, but tights are not. Hence why nearly every male superhero wears them. If they're good enough for dudes, I don't see why they can't be good enough for women, but meh.... Fine, whatever. I agree with everything else you said. As a woman, I also think that comics about female characters tend to be so concerned with whether or not the work is feminist that they forget to tell a good, engaging story FIRST. This comic succeeds on that level, so overall, I enjoyed it. :)

This was easily one of the worst modern Wonder Woman comics to ever existed. Grant Morrison thinks he gets Wonder Woman when he just doesn’t, he’s just repeating out of context golden age tropes without any real story, commentary, updating or anything new to add. And yanick paquette’s art, while obviously not bad and often stunning and imaginative, too often depicts the Amazons as overly posed and constantly pouting. All the characters, especially the Amazons, feel more like tropes and mouthpieces for him to repeat golden age stuff through rather than actual people. Even in George Pérez where they all talk in a rather convoluted and old fashioned way, they at least still feel human. It’s a shame because a story like this, a modern take on golden age Wonder Woman, could’ve really been something. This is just a male fantasy more than anything else.

I feel like in an effort to pay homage to the original creator's intent and Wonder Woman's convoluted history, some of the messages got muddled. This book comes off really well if you know that extensive backstory( I was also sucked into the book by seeing the broken amphora used as a gutter), but there were definitely uncomfortable parts of the book that made me feel like Tiffany forty minutes into this video.
