Imagine Circe, who begins her life as a 'golden child' healer, ..like a Dalai Lama - from Colchis, travelling all over the world, healing the sick. To procure wealth and protection for their poor...
As I recall from Tynion's revision in JLD, his Circe celebrated for her healing arts--so, she was doing good in the world, before she was forced to marry the unnamed pig, she butchered. Walking...
I guess it's subjective. Barbara, Veronica, Adrianna and even Ares--I don't really have much sympathy for these super-villains, who either messed themselves up or were just crummy people, like Bar...
Is Circe, as revised by James Tynion IV, currently the only Wonder Woman foe with a struggle ..or the greatest, most tragic struggle? As I see it, she's the only Wonder-villain I can almost root for,...
Sadly, Grail's motivation has rarely been articulated by WW writers, since her inception in Darkseid War. According to her mother Myrina, she is the living embodiment of the Anti-life Equation, the...
Well, if we're going to be fair, when fans can look forward to reading about their favorite superheroes in TWO, monthly titles, ..Superman's and Batman's adventures aren't really monthly. Someday,...
Five greatest Wonder Woman villains, sitting in mothballs...
Never seen a comic more wasteful, with its artistic/intellectual capital, than WW. I wrote this out of sheer frustration, mostly....
Guess it's too much to hope for, because it makes so much sense, but, I wish Etta and Mala were permanently established, as the WW comic's 'Man's World supporting cast'. It would mean that no matter...
Yes! A Doctor Cyber in a body, forged from Zeus's aegis...great story! Marriage of sorcery and technology--that's a great concept for the Wonderverse, where classical Amazons fly around in invisible...
Actually thought this thread was 'Is it time to make Diana a MAN?', before reading some of the above posts! My answer is a resounding no...
To both. :)
Geof Johns plugged Myrina (a real-world, mythical Amazon) into WW continuity, as if she'd been there, since the Fifties, ..and I think that was as gutsy, as it was prag. It was forward, because...
I have accepted, and I think most WW fans should accept, that writers and editors aren't interested in making Doctor Cyber anything, like an archenemy in the comic. The WW comic has its own Doctor...
At this point, I just don't know what in Hades Cheetah is supposed to be doing, ..anywhere. Basically, she's Man-Bat, with a soap opera attached, and this film really affirms that, for my money.
...
Possibly, the best superhuman male companion, created for use in WW, ..there ever was! As such, he checked all the boxes that Andros, Hercules, Warkiller, Superman and Jason did, ..and better, than...
Between them...depth. No soap opera cheese, with a trail of clothes to a bedroom ..or sight of Diana waking up, with her head in a man's lap, ..and it's sexier, than anything in the WW comic, before...

Something tells me she's not going to return - at least, not as a villain. She's not really the threat to Diana's mission that Circe or Ares is.
Orion was Willie Garvin to Diana's Modesty Blaise, who is also a Greek princess...nothing overtly sexual. We don't really know, if they're boinking. Like Diana and Orion they're companions - does it...
I think that, if the 70s TV series had followed its natural, narrative course, in time to avoid cancellation, ..we would have seen Diana Prince become a Highland explore heroine, much like the Mod...
I am for more writer/creator attention to Amazon training. Conceivably, Diana should have someplace in her home, in Man's World, where she trains, ..and a supporting character, who isn't Donna or...
Conceptually, this worked for me, better than Sty-ana.
The friendship between Diana and Orion started with a guardrail orientation of how to treat each other, involving a dehumanizing rump-slap...
We're thinking about this, too hard. She doesn't need an embassy or a floating, crystal city in the sky, fulla' talking animals.
Diana needs a small mansion or a penthouse, in a city, somewhere,...
Hades, YES!!! Jane Russell as Wonder Woman would have been unforgettable. It's so great seeing her, this way.
GOLDEN AGE ACTION...MISTER WONDER, CYCLONE SON OF ZEUS, and the NIGHT-STALKING BLACK VIKING--with the blazing ray-guns of the KING OF MARS, ..the unkillable half-Arab, DOC DANGER, ..high-flying dick,...
They got two things right, and one thing, wrong.
The retelling of Circe's origin, by James Tynion of JLD, makes Circe, the greatest of WW's current rogues and belonging, at the top of the list....
