Finch² coming to Wonder Woman in November

[Vanguard-01]

Why do people need this? We've already got an entire book based on that, why can't Wonder Woman have her own little world without other superheroes intruding?

Because some people:

1.) Like the relationship with Superman and want to see them share each other's worlds.

and

2.) Like the shared universe concept and like seeing their favorite characters interacting and working together.

Oh yeah, I take them with more than a grain of salt these days. Its just that between when it was first rumored to now things were so quiet I was wondering if things had changed.

Also, a suggestion to the males here: don't even go there with the boobs. Please don't. Because it perpetuates the stereotype that male comic book fans have never seen the female body before. Those are not porn star tits. They are not ridiculously large, and they're not ballooning out from the chest, rather have a little bit of sag. If you don't like the style fine, but let's not say things that are embarrassing.

Ouch :P Can't believe we're going from Chiang to Finch. Talk about a bad transition. I'm really, really bummed.

I'm very much looking forward to this. The myth story was alright but it can't be the only focus so I'm glad they will have a departure from this for a while. I want to see Diana go back to being a superhero in her own book and so I'm glad this will happen. Here's hoping we get her rogues gallery built up. The current run was a good story yes, but it was an Olympus story and didn't really have the focus on WW that I wanted to see. I hope Meredith Finch is good and I'm looking forward to see where she takes it; more female writers is always a good thing. I think besides that one mishap with a WW drawing (you know the one), David Finch has drawn her and everybody else fine and overall he's pretty good. I'd also like to see some team-ups with some other characters that she hasn't interacted with before in the New 52. Does anyone have have any idea of team-ups they want to see?

[SiegePerilous02]

Wait, didn't Finch use the other Justice League members in his Batman run on whatever excessive bat-title he was on at the time?

Oh God, are we getting a repeat of that?

[Mr. Mastermind]

Some of us don't see it as "intruding". An occasional guest appearance by Superman, the Flash, or Hal Jordan would be cool from time to time. I'm more so excited that the Greek myth focal point will finally be put to rest.

There already is a book for WW teaming up with Superman.

I wouldn't mind Flash and Hal showing up though.

You've said in the past that you're reading the book for the current supporting cast and not for Wonder Woman herself and with Azz killing off a good portion of the current cast, you most likely wouldn't continue reading the book once he left regardless of who took over.

I would continue reading the book if the new creative team was good, but it isn't.

Because some people:

1.) Like the relationship with Superman and want to see them share each other's worlds.

and

2.) Like the shared universe concept and like seeing their favorite characters interacting and working together.

It'd be great if we had a book about Superman and Wonder Woman working together with guest appearances from other characters... Perhaps if it was written by Charles Soule and drawn by Tony Daniels.

WW's book stood out because it was in its own corner of the DCu instead of a generic superhero book, so this move will just make the book less interesting to me.

[Vworp Vworp]

...and instead spotlight Wonder Woman's "interpersonal relationships and her responsibilities to the Amazons and her fellow heroes in the Justice League."

Which means Supes. And more than likely, the bland, personality-void Wonder Woman who currently inhabits JLA and Superman/Wonder Woman.

Ugh.

[Sacred Knight]

Comparing JL Wonder Woman with Soule's Wonder Woman should be punishable by 10 lashings.

So have you come to appreciate Wonder Woman herself?

[Vworp Vworp]

Which would the only time either of them ever invoked any feeling other than boredom.

[Sacred Knight]

Sorry to hear you're not enjoying either version. Still though, the two are nothing alike (a condemnation of Johns version).

Can't say I agree.

While I wasn't as rabidly opposed to the idea as some of the less pro-Azz fans on this forum, I did find it a bit frustrating that Diana had so little interaction with the larger DCU. It wouldn't have been such an issue if there was some in-story justification for the isolation. Like if Diana were spending a fair bit of time on Olympus or the Underworld or some other places where most other heroes simply can't easily go. But it was really just Azz refusing to play ball with the rest of the universe.

Now don't get me wrong, his story has been great, and it certainly isn't diminished by the lack of other heroes. But a new change of pace is still a welcome thing.

[Vworp Vworp]

Sorry to hear you're not enjoying either version. Still though, the characterizations are nothing alike.

Neither of them have any characterisation. That's the problem.

[Sacred Knight]

Well you're clearly exaggerating. I don't like Johns WW but she has characterization. Its just a bad one. And so does Soule's. And his is much better. And not at all that far off from Azzarello's.

[RobinFan4880]

Maybe after 3 years of Wonder Woman being a mostly secondary character in her own title, she'll actually star in the title.

Been reading Wonder Woman since 2012. I can honestly say I have never understood this criticism.
