I'm actually wondering now where Taylor lands on this.
His biggest stories thus far, Injustice & DCeased, were both big 'entire DC Universe' stories, so Wonder Woman kind of had to be included. But this stupid medieval story he's doing...unless editorial made him include Diana, why bother? If you want to make you high-fantasy Superman/Batman story, just do it. Diana doesn't need to be involved.
Or does Taylor genuinely think he's doing her justice? I saw on Twitter he actually tried to defend the one-punch death Diana got in DCeased as a noble and heroic sacrifice on her part, which...
I don't know. If I was a comic writer with the kind of sway to do whatever kind of story I want--and I don't see why Taylor wouldn't have that kind of control over his own Elseworlds story--I would just not include characters I don't like. Don't mention them. Don't even acknowledge them if you no one's forcing you to.
Whatever one's feelings about Grant Morrison's Earth One books, I at least appreciate they came about because Grant admitted they did Diana wrong in Final Crisis and wanted to do better. That's a helluva a lot more than most writers who keep inflicting themselves on Wonder Woman and either don't realize they suck at it, or do know it and just don't care.
She cut off his arm.... but didn't go for the head she went for the heart, another insta-kill move but who am I to say. SR and CBR will make click bait articles about it because of END GAME. The other annoying thing is that the comic made note that its a magic sword infused with Kryptonite welded by "the greatest warrior in DC Comics/The Amazon Goddess" and she also had help so.... all in all pretty bad.
