I second this.
This is gorgeous. Is that an inker or colorist’s signature beneath Perez’s? They really gave us a beautiful Diana.
His plans sounded very interesting to me. He sold me with his acting out of the different character points of view.
(Also dug his take on DC movies vs Marvel movies.)
Love these!
My regard for this retrospective just fell off a quite a bit. The Bronze Age chapter skims over everything pre-Perez and the Silver Age chapter calls Samuel Delaney’s work “progressive, thoughtful...
I’m only up to part four—The Villains of the Golden Age, so I’ve got plenty left to delve into. The author referring to Duke of Deception as The Lord of Fake News is a hoot.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention. Enjoying it so far.
105812. Heh
Where is this from, please?
I absolutely LOVE number 12 on this list—“Held up a bridge.” Always think back on it fondly. I think that could be exciting in a movie.
Looks pretty cool. Matt Bomer as Barry Allen. Huh.
If they’re really trying to do a “Marston characterization” I hope Diana displays some humor along the way. She’s nothing but deadly serious in...
I would have voted for no twin at all.
That’s how I read it also. Delivered with regal authority and a twinkle in the eye acknowledging the joke.
It works for me. Hippolyta is, after all, the only Amazon who wanted a child so badly...
I don’t understand why this line should particularly rankle either. Maybe I’m reading “Babies, babies, babies” in my head with a different delivery than you are.
I didn’t read the Finch run, but I was on these boards and I recall the way folks howled over that “vegetative injustice” line and this battle. I didn’t get the uproar. But you’ve sort of made me...
Charlize Theron as Circe...or Artemis...?
We could get Diana back to the the island with some interpretation of The Contest.
I knew it! Haha
Cover looks like a Bronze Age homage:

This art is entrancing.
I love that Patty Jenkins and co. made an anti-Trump superhero film that just happens to coincide with the Sociopath-in-Chief at his worst.
I knew there’d be a sword and shield before I even opened the thread. Other than that, it’s a nice variation on the golden age costume.
Thanks for directing me to this article. I’m glad I read it.
The Amazon tournament.
The tiara use (though, in retrospect, I’m not sure why Diana is hiding her exploits)
All the innovative uses of the lasso
The “invisible jet” (even though Zeus made it...
Is this question for me or someone else?
I think Jenkins can direct action well. I started the thread to find out if people who think she didn’t deliver with WW84 felt the same way about the...
Pretty much agree with this. The action was different intentionally for storytelling purposes. This was not a war movie. There is action, but it’s not violent action. When people say it was dull...
