    Seriously hate that film, WW84, but agreeing with Doc on all of the above.

    We were only five or six years past the very popular film, CLASH OF THE TITANS, when George Perez relaunched the title in the mid-80s, ..and Wonder Woman has been pigeon-holed by Greek mythology,...

    I noticed that, too. Always figured George was inspired by Infantino's haunting Morgan.

    While I like it on Circe, better than I do on the others, ..the red hair is a little generic. At least, the purple clown-hair, like the Who-ish look, ..somewhat distinguishes her from similar acts,...

    As I understand it, a protege, who hangs out and gets into trouble with the hero, all the time -Bucky, Robin, Sandy, etc -is typically called a sidekick, in superhero comics.

    Except for his mopey Donna, I thought TK's dialogue was fine, for the most, and that he nailed a sustainable voice for Yara, here. It's Diana's responses - specifically, her problem with talking...

    I read the PV again, and I think Yara Flor's dialogue is fine. Yara's the 'fun one', the Yvonne Craig of the Wonder Girls; I think Tom nailed that in this scene.



    Loved Circe and Giganta here!...

    Very good preview, Don. I might actually DL another issue of WW, after seeing this. Thanks for sharing it, here.

    Of the Wonders, Yara's got the biggest butt. I like her, but I don't think she's written in a way that delivers what she was created for. Mike and Becky wrote her as the fun Wonder Girl - playfully...

    Love Greg Rucka's chic, Doctor Who-ish Circe -perfect fit for what the character should be in 2024! For once, Wonder Woman's #2 or #3 supervillain doesn't look like she's part-timing as a greeter, at...

    And UWW would be a good place to road-test the...

    I think the writing on the wall, where Circe's motivation is concerned, is pretty plain.

    I'm really getting tired of waiting for the WW comic to figure out what to do with Circe, in ANY form. Her...
