I’m really loving all of the positive comments about Nubia I’ve been seeing. I really look forward to an ongoing starring Nubia. I lol forward to seeing her origin. I wonder what will it be about?
Yeah, its a delightfully positive example of what 'pushed by the EIC' can do for a character. Past leaders of DC would do this all the time where if they had a favorite you would start seeing a big push on multiple fronts to include them in stuff and give them a chance to shine. Between the two YA OGNs, the first mini series, this coronation special, and her inclusion in so much marketing. Im certain Nubia is here to stay
Yes, it wonderful to finally have an EIC who cares about WW characters and mythology. Hopefully the next few years are fruitful for WW fans.

I love Nubia getting this big push. Along with Circe, she's definitely Kanigher's most enduring legacy for the WW mythos. Glad the people in charge are finally seeing her value.

I'm eager to see what role Nubia plays in Historia, though I'd prefer she not be one of the founding Amazons and instead be Diana's sister/part of her generation.
But either way, I'm totally on board with her having a lioness as a familiar. We only have one image, but I want Selene to forever be a package deal with Nubia.
I'm so excited that Nubia will be the permanent Queen.
Does this mean that Diana will loose her royal status as princess of Themyscira?
Hmm...Come to think of it, I kinda struggle to think of a period where the princess status actually mattered.
During Marstons era Hippolyta was certainly treated like royalty, but Diana was treated like anyone else. Had friends, was learning under an Amazonian doctor, and generally just being an Amazon.
As far as I can recall, the only times the princess status becomes relevant is either in elseworlds where Hippolyta dies, or that story by Jiminez where the monarchy was dismantled. Which makes sense what with Hippolyta being immortal and there being no need for a succession.
