The All-Purpose Legend of Wonder Woman DIGITAL ONLY Spoilers/Discussion Thread

[Renae De Liz]

My wish list of villains for your next possible arc:


Cheetah(Priscilla Rich)
Giganta(w/growing powers)
Dr. Poison
Queen Clea
Baron Blitzkrieg
Osira
Gudra the Valkyrie
Angle Man

Great list! Well, two (possibly three) of those are certain if I do another arc. One other is certain if I do an Amazon title.

I've noticed a lot of Sorceress type villains in WW's lineup (Circe, etc). If you guys had to pick just one of them, who would be the best? Who are villains you find overdone or overused?

Thanks to all of you for the input! I look forward to putting it to good use.

Wow! Thank you for the compliment. I think it's great that you have your own passionate vision for the book yet are willing to take a few requests from fans. I think that is the key to a book's success.

As for my answer to your questions:

1.) My favorite sorceress villain for Wonder Woman is the Queen of Fables. I love her fairytale like origin and powers.

2.) As for which villains have been overused, I'd say recently, it's been the Olympians as sadly, they've basically been the only villains have have been pitted against Diana in the last 4 years. Whether it's the Ares, Hades, Artemis aka Moon, or Strife, Diana is usually tangling with one of them. Add to that fact that most of them are from public domain and I have very little interest in seeing Diana fight any of them again any time soon. Runner up goes to the new villains such as the First Born, the Morrigan, or the Olympian. Sadly, I'm sick of writers creating new villains for Diana while her classic rogues sit in limbo collecting dust. I'm not saying I never want to see Diana fight a new villain but I don't want to see that anytime soon.

Queen Clea gets my vote, but really I'd love to see any of the original Villainy Inc. members. They were, for all purposes, Wonder Woman's Golden Age rogues gallery, and a lot of them just haven't been used enough. If you manage to at least squeeze in a Blue Snowman cameo... my heart would be yours forever.

Circe's definitely the best, and hasn't had a good story in quite a while. She's a villain that really needs to be elevated to a higher standing in comics, as it's so rare to find a female villain of her power levels. She should, IMO, be Wonder Woman's Darkseid/Thanos/Apocalypse.

Sorry, Doc Poison, I can't *stand* the Queen of Fables!

This. Queen Clea definitely. Circe is a great villain (and I have a feeling will feature in the WW movie) but there are many others that need to see the light of day again, as Ms. DeLiz did with Duke of Deception.

An Eisner nom? *applause* Congratulations! Well deserved.

Now, fingers crossed in hopes of volume 2.

Hey, everyone, the next chapter (8.3) is going to be delayed by 2 weeks. Totally my fault. Super sorry about that. After that it will be back to weekly and in the meantime we'll have some neat previews. Can you ever forgive me?

I buy the hard copy issues, since I'm already behind, I have no problem forgiving the wait. It's worth it.

But, the blonde Hippoltya? That I still do not forgive.

The Priscilla Rich cameo in #19 (I'm way behind) makes it pretty obvious she's one of the two, right? So pumped if so, she seems cool from her brief appearance. I'm curious to see what she's going to be like in full Cheetah mode. Costume or werebeast?

The other one from that list...considering the setting, I'm guessing an old school Dr. Poison or Baron Bliztkrieg. And Giganta is the only one I can kind of see in an Amazon title.

New chapter is up now!

Also here's a preview of the cover for the final installment:

While we're at it, here's the complete collection of covers:

I was sad to see spoilers:

Priscilla meet her end... but maybe she can be saved like I assume Phillipus will eventually? Okay, yeah, probably not seeing as what had happened to her. I *loved* seeing Diana immediately ready to fight, even without her powers. Her bravery comes off so well in this series, even when she needs to be saved by a well-timed Pegasus. I wonder if Athena or Aphrodite is speaking through her, and that one of them will become her patron goddess rather than Zeus/the rest of the gods.

Surely, you don't think that was the end for Priscilla? This is comics!

If anything, it gives a way for her to return as the Cheetah. Only one more issue. :-( So much to wrap up in so short a time.

Only one more? For the life of me I can't keep track of how many digital issues there are supposed to be. It does seem there's a lot to wrap up.

[Nyssane]

I'm pretty sure there's still three more issues?

[RAY DILLON]

The whole digital issue/chapter thing is super confusing to a lot of people. Here's how it breaks down in the way we created it:

270 page Graphic Novel

Broken down into:
9 print issues. 30 pages of story each.

Broken down into:
27 digital chapters (that they call issues sometimes) 20-pages each, but these are actually only 10 pages of story, cut in half to make 20 pages for the wide screen format. This is why you see the same cover for 3 chapters, then it changes to a new cover for 3 chapters, and so on.

Hope that makes a bit more sense.

[RAY DILLON]

So, there are 3 digital chapters left, 3 more weeks of new content.

In print there are 5 issues in stores now.

OK, three more, yeah---that's what I had been thinking. I've purchased digital and print versions and will get the hardcover too. I have to support the only version of Wonder Woman out there that I actually recognize as Wonder Woman. Just my opinion.
