Wonder Woman #8 preview and discussion

[Psy-lock]

King isn't exactly known for his originality. Like that time he (unintentionally?) ripped off Joe Kelly's terrible Superman/WW crossover.

Even the concept of a secret king controlling USA for the past few centuries seems like what Ostrander did with his Spectre run in the 90s.

I did get a feeling of deja vu when reading the preview as well, but I also got a similar feeling for that one story line where Wonder Woman spends the day with that male WW fan that feels ostracized for being a WW fan.

Just because something is similar though doesn't mean King ripped it off. I think there has been other times where Wonder Woman has been depicted as a house wife to play with the idea that someone is trying to "domesticate" her

[Skytten]

I do think King rips off/or take inspiration from things very clearly, but in this case I think it makes perfect sense. Sovereign has been talking about how women should be subservient multiple times and the Lasso of Lies obviously brainwash or put it victims through something. So that together with Sovereigns wishes make it clear something like this was what was going to happen.

I don't see how this would come as a shock to anybody. He was clearly supposed to be an old, religious man and "appointed" by god like a lot of royalty.
But I like how Diana is shown.

So movie aside "Superman is Jesus" allegories, now there's "WW is Jesus" allegories.

More like Wonder Woman is Mother Mary with how hard they keep pushing the Madonna imagery.

So does that make Trinity Jesus?

So to speak.

Also, ouch.

Tom King would unironically do this and give it a depressing twist.

Liked the issue. It was predictable, but still nice. The appearance in the dream reality in the end was nice. And liked the banter between Cassie and Yara.
