Hippolyta didn't approve of Jumpa? For shame. I wonder if Diana punched her after that .
King's Jumpa story makes it sounds like a take on story of Alexander the Great taming the horse Bucephalus
So the image of Steve was used as a means to trap Diana in the previous issue, is this one going to be her mental "safe space" she leans on to help her get through her ordeal?
Tom King loves writing scenes that read like a therapy session
december 21st has passed where are my superpowers?
Hippolyta yelling at Diana for selecting Jumpa because he was a runt not worthy of a princess? Why is Tom King writing the Amazons like arrogant warriors? This is such a tired characterization.
And my god the dialogues are pretentious. You can almost see King smiling smugly and patting himself on the back as he finished writing each line.
Eh most people avoid picking the runt cause they reasonably might not grow healthy to make good mounts, which is the entire reason you're picking an animal to begin.
So Diana was taking more of a risk picking an animal that possibly would require more care than most. She could have picked an easier animal to tame but Diana went with the hardest choice there.
We don' really know if she yelled. This is something Diana remembers from childhood. It could very much be an overexaggeration. Diana might have made a big fuss about it and Hippolyta might have tried and reason and explained it with Diana being difficult. She is after all in a dream state when she is saying this.
