    What do you guys think of Hera as one of the patrons of the Amazons?

    She is the Queen of the Gods... at the least they would have a level of respect for her.

    I'm suspecting this seventh tribe in Historia #2 is gonna have Hera as it's patron.

    I'd be fine with it as since Perez swapped Ares for Hera in manipulating Heracles to go after the Amazons, so it's not as if there'd be any reason for direct animosity. I always thought it was a bit odd Perez left Hera out as one of the patrons of Themyscira.

    In the 2009 Wonder Woman animated movie, it was Hera that brought Diana to life?

    I think she will be Hippolyta's patron. All the telltale signs are there to be a connection between her and Hippolyta. Plus the library cover edition has the same sigil on it that is on Gene Ha's double page spread of Hera, along with some feathers (I assume they're peacocks).

    I'm curious if they will be previous Amazons or all new faces.

    I got to ask this in a Q&A DeConnick/Jimenez did and they both came to the project with lists of Amazons they wanted in the first book. Jimenez in particular used pre-existing characters as a jumping off point to get an idea for designs.

    So I imagine it will be the same here of a mixture of familiar names and then just new ones (some probably taken from actual Greek Amazon myths).

    I'm okay with it. But generally the Gods are the least interesting parts of the mythos for me.

    The only exceptions for me are Ares and Athena. I think Athena and Artemis are thematically the closest to who WW is with Ares as the perfect foil.

    I enjoyed what little we saw of the Gods on E2 and how much of an impact Mercury was able to have

    Also I can't even express how much I love Phil's decision that she should never wear the same thing twice, even though it probably makes the other artists' jobs a lot harder. I adore that outfit on Nicola's and can't wait to see the others she designed!
