    Default Try to make Jason work

    Okay, this is a Herculean task, but whatever, let's discuss. Take the basic idea behind Jason (Wonder Woman's twin brother raised in secret because of his gender that Diana doesn't learn about until she's an adult) and make it work somehow.

    I wonder say not to his gender. That not all Amazons hated men. Rather what if Ares wanted Jason instead but could never find him

    He's from an alternate universe who accidently got sent here.

    He then dies on his way back home.

    I had forgotten Jason existed, I was happier 10 seconds ago.

    2 ways:

    1. He's an alternate Diana

    2. He was born pre-Themiscryia, Hippolyta thought he died during birth but it all was A LIE. He was brought back to life by Ares or some magical deity and used as their champion. The baby daddy is Hercules.

    Jason is the son of Zeus and Queen Hippolyta

    Diana is the daughter of Queen Hippolyta

    Jason's mother can either be the New 52's blond Hippolyta or Empress Hippolyta from Dimension Chi, in either case he's only Diana's mystic twin born of an imposter.

    He is Diana's half brother on her father's side. Like Lennox and Milan.

    Making Prince Jason the twin brother of a Diana, from a parallel universe, is probably the best way to go. I don't think there is a way to fix him, considering what an abysmal start, he got in Mr. Robinson's run. I predicted there would be an action figure, and HeroClix made the figurine, ..but, beyond that, he's a big nothing-burger.

    That would make him into Diana's brother and nephew, so that's very much like Greek mythology .

    Wasn't New 52 Hippolyta, alongside the rest of the New 52 Amazons, revealed to be fake? Or was that undone? I'm not keeping up with DC lol.

    Well, I guess revealing that Jason was fake all along would be a way to fix Jason .

    And is wiped from the cosmic genomic structure of the Multiverse as though he had never existed. Never to be thought of or mentioned again

    Jason being from an AU could be interesting if the premise was 'what if Hippolyta sculpted a boy instead of a girl?'.

    I'm with you, right up to that gender-swithcheroo part. I think the Wonder Woman we read about, in the monthly comic, should have a superhuman male ally, who happens to be Prince Jason, the brother of a parallel universe Wonder Woman. I also think you can have an AU, where Queen Hippolyta had twins, and entrusted her son to the heroes of Thalarion, to be raised. It confounds me that James didn't go that route, and he could have told THAT origin, in six panels...

    But, I guess that's the old way. So much better now, taking 3-6 issues to tell a superhero origin story...sure.

    As for the Wonder Woman we read about, in the monthly comic, my OTHER question stands, if anyone dares to answer it. Do we really need Prince Jason or Wonder[blank], with Sigfried in the cast?

    Whether he's Gundra's ex-husband or brother in-law, Conrad has confirmed, on Twitter, that Siggy's already in the Valkyrie family, by marriage, ..just as he is, in German folklore. He has colors and armor and style, all the sparks of a classic superhero. Furthermore, the important things about him are firmly established in German myth and not open to screwed around with, as Jason's profile was - Siggy is every bit the swashbuckling ladies' man and fearless adventurer, the myths have shown him to be. Can we see him playing a semi-regular role (like Steel or Catwoman used to), in the comic? When it comes to having a true, superhuman male Wonder about, who joins Diana, Artemis and Nubia on adventures, as their equal, I think Siggy does, as well, or better, ..than Prince Jason.

    With Siggy, ex-husband of Gundra (a Wonder-villain), as a semi-regular, ..can we finally let Jason go, altogether?
