Wonder Woman - General Discussion

[Phoenixx9]

It was an Elseworlds thing and it was published. It's basically Stan Lee (or most likely his artists and ghost writers) revamping DC characters. Superman, Batman and Green Lantern all got revamped as well in their own respective one shots. Then they all came together in a single comic to form the Justice League with that world's Green Lantern as the leader. I recall it being fun and enjoyable. Some of the revamps were really wild like Superman being a space cop stranded on earth and Lois Lane being his fast talking agent trying to turn him into a celebrity. Batman was basically Wildcat; a young man who got framed for a crime he didn't commit, takes up boxing in prison, takes up a Bat motif and becoming wealthy through boxing which is how he funds his gadgets. Green Lantern was a professor who lectures at a university and draws his power from Yggdrasil (I think he was left for dead in an ancient land like WW as well) who chose him as his champion. Flash was your average hyper active female teen side kick who talks a lot but is much cleverer than people give her credit for.

Thank you!

Out of curiosity, what is the general opinion of the Stan Lee presents Wonder Woman?

Name Maria Mendoza, she came from the Andes mountains of Peru and was chosen by the Inca sun god Manco Capac and given a magic staff in the process.

It left me entirely cold. I bought it when first released and I know I read it but I couldn’t remember anything about it. Reading the synopses in this thread still has me drawing a blank. Where is the WW connection or inspiration?

TBF, you could ask for the same question about the other 'Just Imagine' characters. The only thing they had in common was the name and a few of the aesthetics.

In this instance it seemed to be the inspiration was the bit of Perez's run where Diana recieved her powers as gifts from the gods, and the series constant of her possessing a magic lasso of the gods.
In this case the powers come from an Incan sun god and the lasso is instead a staff.

I wouldn't mind this character being revived. Aside from Just Imagine's version of GL, she might be the only other hero that could fit into the DC Universe.

Was the art and coloring as good as this pic throughout the book?

Good question. I don’t remember that either. My copy is buried in a box deep in my closet somewhere.

Honestly several of em would be a pretty good fit.
The comparison between Just Imagines Batman and Wild Cat are pretty accurate.
Just Imagines Flash is no stranger than any other Flash origin
And their take on Catwoman is basically that Tim Burton version but with the Flash origin.

Just Imagine Wonder Woman certainly has an interesting design thing going. I could see Diana teaming up with her and the Wonder-Woman of China on a big adventure.

Change up the names and I could reasonably buy most of them being incorporated into regular DC continuity. The Flash one in particular doesn't seem any particularly stranger than the extended members of the Flash family.

Just Imagine Wonder Woman seems like it just redesigned Alan Moore's Promethea. I still like the design, but not very original

Don't let Alan Moore see this.

I'm curious in Golden age Black Canary was a close friend of Diana. Do you guys think Dc should have kept that?

Yes.

I wonder how that should be written. It was Diana who introduced Black Canary to JSA. So how would Diana meet Black Canary
