Did anyone else read these? I read them quick while I was in Newbury Comics, and the Cheetah story in particular is FANTASTIC. A really solid done-in-one that further explores her thought processes and how she views Diana.
A young archaeologist finds her in the jungle, being a long time admirer of Barbara Minerva, and begs to be made a goddess like her. Apparently Cheetah can empower acolytes or something, and the summer solstice is her time of power. The girl even gives her a piece of her finger as an offering. Cheetah rejects it,causing the girl to refer to her as a fraud and become determined to surpass her in the archaeology field, which Cheetah ends up respecting. Wonder Woman shows up to re-capture her, and we get some inner monologues showing that Cheetah regards Diana as her greatest enemy and dearest friend, and is envious that Diana came from a loving environment that didn't force her to "carve away pieces of herself" in order to get a chance to sit at the table of power. Cheetah now wants to destroy the table (hence stuff like killing Poseidon in the future), but still regards her situation as a curse and will not pass it along to anyone else. Diana does another "cool down hug" to Cheetah like she did during the end of Godwatch, and says she will always be there to catch her when she falls. I don't know if anyone can say their dynamic is still un-complex. Rebirth has been great with these two so far.
Giganta's story is a little less note worthy, but still good. Doris ends up back in her home town while on the run from Wonder Woman, and ends up at the High School carnival, where she finds the bully who tormented her as a kid is now the school coach. She resists the urge to crush him, as she considers that he "helped" make her strong, but when she catches his son harassing a girl she goes giant size and smashes the empty school and leaves the coach and his son hanging from a flag pole. She calls out the "boys will be boys" bullying for the BS that it is, and tells the girl not to rely on anyone to help her, even "Princess Wonder Woman." The girl thanks her and waves her goodbye, while still saying her message is kind of terrible lol.
I don't usually care for the origin of Giganta as a human scientist, because I feel that Diana has more than enough doctors in her rogues gallery and prefer the (admittedly silly) gorilla origin. But if we have to have it, this is a good insight into her motivations and past.
