I think it’s a pretty popular opinion that Terry Long was terrible in just about every way.

I think it’s a pretty popular opinion that Terry Long was terrible in just about every way.
This is pretty gross (Diana just comes off like a clingy, desperate, obsessive girl while Supes gets to be all cool and aloof), but it sounds pretty on brand for Miller.
For real though, can...
Best: Steve Trevor
Worst of the worst: Superman. 'Nuff said.
Yes (I mentioned Year One in my post didn’t I?) and now they’ve reverted back to the WWII origin. Doesn’t matter that we managed to break away from that a couple times, somehow her origin always ties...
RIP Diana/Steve, writers could never leave the two of you alone for too long before screwing everything up for the sake of drama. It hurts doubly because even though yes, comic book couples break up...
From what I've seen, Lois gets a decent amount of respect from fans (I personally really couldn't care less about opinions of non-fans, or casual fans who don't really care about the characters...
It's frustrating that most superheroes have since gotten updated, contemporary versions of their origin story and yet WW is still inexplicably stuck with WWII. The WWII setting is just not necessary...
I agree. I genuinely don't mind another retelling of WW's origin, but the way this one was done was... rushed. We didn't see nearly enough of Themyscira, we don't really know anything about it...
God, I hope so. It's about time WW got her own animated series spotlighting her supporting cast. I'd give anything to see Hippolyta, Donna, Cassie, Nubia, Steve and Etta. Artemis and the Banas can...
This sounded good on paper, but I can't see a way that this can be executed well.
I know I'm probably in the minority here, but I'm not crazy about the idea of them sticking classic WW supporting...
I enjoyed it. Sure, the plot wasn’t groundbreaking, they stuffed too many villains in, and Hippolyta’s conflict with Diana was forced and contrived to the former’s detriment, but at least this time...
What other reasons are there? They're both invulnerable so they won't have to worry about each other the way they have to worry about those pesky humans Lois and Steve and can be a "power couple"...
I don't necessarily see it that way. I certainly prefer a Diana who is a physically strong warrior while still capable of liking traditionally "womanly" things than the oftentimes extreme portrayal...
I guess I might be fine with that? Like others have pointed out before, even though I'm a huge fan of Diana/Steve, I really dislike the idea of Steve, or any other man, becoming a "naturalized...
Eh, not when the nurse is secretly a superpowered hero who only poses as a nurse to keep an eye on the danger-prone, not-very-bright soldier she's fascinated by.
Personally, I see nothing wrong...
I don't really see the problem here though. I mean, if she were like Tarzan and Steve is the first guy she's ever seen and remains the only man she knows for the rest of her life then yeah, that...
Coming as someone who genuinely enjoys Diana/Steve (or at least the potential of this pairing that writers never seem to manage to live up to):
I think there's definitely a bit of double standards...
Oh, look, the creator's pets are here to provide some more exposition on the plot and point some stuff out while the titular character is off being depressed or something. What a surprise. Yippee.
She IS being written absolutely terribly by GWW, but that doesn't change the fact that Nu52 WW was a horrid mess, with or without her ill-advised relationship with Superman ("They're meant to be...
The one time WW had a son, it was turned into a whole "My mother didn't want me because I'm a boy" trainwreck, so I'm skeptical of that plotline. That, or it would undoubtedly be turned into a "woe...
Hopefully the book becoming monthly will give the creative team more time to actually think their decisions through, instead of... whatever poorly-thought out, rushed-but-at-the-same-time-drawn-out...
Are you referring to the Nu52? Wasn't the majority of the Nu52 WW mythos retconned out of existence?
Anyway, my point still stands. The Amazons are a race of warrior women who in some iterations...
The thing is, I don't want Steve to use magic or fight like an Amazon. Anyone who's asking for that is falling into the same old trap of wanting to "power him up" to either make him more...
I guess that would be interesting to see, but I don't mind Steve's abilities as they are. It's not how good in a fight he is that makes him a good character, it's his morality compass.
I'm open to...
An issue written by GWW is badly-written? Must be a day that ends in y.
Words cannot describe how disappointed I've been with her run. I loved her Marvel work, so I had hopes that she would return...
