Absolutely true (although from what I've read, Golden Age Superman was more about violent revolt against corruption, but naybe I'm wrong)

Absolutely true (although from what I've read, Golden Age Superman was more about violent revolt against corruption, but naybe I'm wrong)
I get why a writer would wanna jump into the big events since he knows he might lose the audience quickly if they don't feel like big things are happening.
I also understand that he has sort of...
Years ago, Gail Simone interviewed Mark Waid, and I think it's kind of interesting to see him describe his struggle with her, specially when Gail Simone is on the other side and very much critiquing...
Totally agree with you there. There is much to learn from the Krakoa era
He just copied Taxi Driver and King of Comedy and put a little bit of Fight Club in there
And yet it was a far less meaningful movie than any of those
Didn't the phoenix literally destroy a solar system with intelligent life?
I never actually read that story, but why do Jean Grey fans in this community want her to be so strongly identified with...
De Liz is a great example, although that version could be even more disruptive and action hero like
Simone has the energy, but also isn't an organized force of chaos
Morrison's has the...
Look back at my comments and your comments. At no point was I defending the modern version of Etta, and when you started arguing with me you were dismissing my statements about Etta Candy. You were...
Why wouldn't we be discussing the version of 80 years ago if that's still the best version?
I'm talking about what Etta Candy should be like
If you are criticizing a version of her that you...
Why are you calling her a "sidekick"?
She's her best friend and partner. The whole point of Etta in actions stories is that she is a force of organized chaos. Impactful, competent and unpredictable....
Definitely Agree that Tom King's run could use her to compliment his version of stoic and proper Diana
Etta Candy is anything but a cliche, what in the world are you talking about? Her living persona is literally Lizzo
And Etta Candy should be comic relief, and have actual emotions, these two...
I do dislike Cassie being the daughter of Zeus, didn't remember that had happened in the Jiminez run, but ultimately that is an addition (that does miss the point of the character)
Vanessa...
Good point. I do think there is a difference between saying "this idea had financial viability and you can see how well utilized it was in that other franchise" versus "this idea didn't have...
And I just wanna point out that financial success isn't how people here operate when they are discussing what Wonder Woman should be, so I don't get why shoot down this idea based on how many comics...
What did Jiminez discard? He literally pulled things from all runs prior and carried them forward. The floating islands was a continuation of the flying fortress Diana used in the Eric Luke run, the...
I think most fans just don't get the point of having someone there without super powers unless they are "the relateable best friend" or "guy in the chair" or "nick fury".
Personally, I would give...
Okay. What does that have to do with what I said? I didn't say people couldn't like it. I just don't think most people will, and it certainly isn't the most revolutionary version of the character,...
nothing close to the point of what he was doing was ever done again after Rucka destroyed the floating islands and "cosmic university".
Yes Krakoa is being erased, but the huge success of it is...
His story and the Phil Jiminez story were both great
They should team up and do a Wonder Woman story
I think I'm starting to warm up to this version of Dreamer
Yup, the Phil Jiminez story was very touching, and does make me really angry about Rucka's decision. It was so short sighted, and when you look at the success of Krakoa and Hickman's X-men, you see...
There are parts of the Cloonrad run I liked, but Steve and Etta were not one of them
When I was younger I remember seeing Etta Candy in one thing or another and how boring she was, because I kept...
How are they rejects?
Why do you have to talk about them like they are uninspired and lame?
They have a distinct and solid design, and the idea of Wonder Woman fighting a trio of powerful...
The Dark Fates looked interesting and cool
Don't know what character is in that Batman story, but I do dig their look
damn right!
