Kind of a mini-trend of the early 2000s where Johns would have Diana do something really stupid or OOC and Rucka would have to make sense of it later, or Rucka putting a lot of time and effort into establishing something for or about Wonder Woman, just for Johns to make a total botch of it in some other comic.
Suffering Sappho...has there ever been a writer who's failed so consistently at Wonder Woman as Geoff Johns? Guys like Matt Wagner were one-and-done. Robinson had his run, but he's gone now and will probably never touch her again. Frank Miller sticks to his weirdo "Crazy Ralph" universe. Tom Taylor may be going for record, but he's still got a ways to go.
But Johns...since the early 2000s, this man has had his hand at Wonder Woman dozens of times in crossover events, guest appearances, and Justice League, and the best he's ever gotten...the highest pinnacle he's ever reached with her is "mildly inoffensive."
This guy seriously thought he should co-write one of her movies. Look how that turned out.
