    I thought Diana's section in Last Stories of the DC Universe was okay but nothing noteworthy. And maybe a bit confusing. I liked Donna's story better.

    I mean, it has to be the Queen of Fables since that's her shtick. But I would be surprised if it was a classic WW villain and not some new character or a different hero's villain. This run has already set a low precedent for that.

    I sort of expect Liar Liar and Lord to be redeemed after this, watch Tamaki reveal that the entity pretending to be a rabbit manipulated Max and his daughter the whole time.

    Re-watching the first Wonder Woman animated film, and omg. Steve Trevor is a misogynistic piece of crap when he first arrives. I forgot how much I disliked him in it.

    The entity should be revealed at Dr. Psycho, who was making himself appear as a rabbit, and manipulating the entire thing.

    I really despise Steve in that movie. They tried so hard to make him a Han Solo-esque "cool guy" charmer but my god did they miss the mark.

    Yeah, I had some worries about how Steve would be portrayed in the live-action films because of the ‘09 film.

    Steve's portrayal in the 2009 film has indeed aged poorly.

    The 09 movie really hasn't aged well. The core story is there, but the execution is off. Etta and Steve are big reasons for that. Virginia Madsen as Hippolyta was inspired voice casting, and when Diana first arrives, the old homeless drunk that sees her and says "Wuzza... Look at that lady!" and then passes back out is a funny bit.... but in all, when I try to rewatch it, I find it to difficult to get around the ruin of Etta Candy and the stupid "grown frat boy" nature of Steve Trevor.

    Also in the 2009 movie, it should have been either Hera, Aphrodite, or Athena who magically bring Diana to life. Not Zues.

    I know they used a thunderbolt to indicate the clay being brought to life but I thought it was Hera since she was the one doing the narration.

    Fanboy quibble I had was we never got Ares in his Perez armor.

    Loved the way Niccola Scott drew it too. Its definitely his most iconic look.

    Yeah, Perez had a real hit-and-miss track record for character designs but he gets a pass for me on that Ares design.

    The Pérez fan in me makes it hard to hate some of his designs. I’m in absolute love with his Disco Dick Nightwing look.
