I turned on it when it became another “evil Amazons” story. Come on Diana has an entire Rogues Gallery begging to be used! The spine thing was just weird because I’m still not sure what it’s meant to evoke out of you emotionally? Am I supposed to be touched? Because it doesn’t feel like a respectful way to treat a corpse lmao. Guess it’s meant to be a “f*** yeah” moment but it’s just too jarring and unlike Diana to really hit.
For when my rants on the forums just aren’t enough: https://thevindicativevordan.tumblr.com/
I am just as baffled as you. The story before took itself rather seriously but that was straight out of Synder (both of them )
Yeah, even before Superman showed up I was getting some red flags with Hippolyta. Jokes on me that this was also one of the first stories since New 52 Daddy Zeus origin that explicitly uses the clay birth.
This, and I think the only thing you were supposed to think is "that's fucking metal!!!!!"
Just like turning the lasso into a glorified ripchord, it just feels like they're trying way too hard to make Diana cool instead of actually showing you why she is. Desecrating her friend's corpse isn't very Wonder Woman to me.
Is mystical on a quest to get everyone who has ever wronged Diana to publicly apologize for their 'transgressions'? XD

Is this where you and certain other posters try to pile on criticism to someone who doesn't share your viewpoint? Posterboard bullying?
How about we don't settle for crumbs with Wonder Woman which many have done. If mystical has to keep reciting similar points over and over, one reason is because it is not getting through to many people on this board, or perhaps even the editors that may read these messages.
Keep in mind that you have about as much chance of changing my mind as I do of changing yours.
I'm not trying to pile on or bully anyone.
Just because I tried to bring some levity into the thread doesn't mean I'm suddenly accepting crumbs or that I think the discussion about power levels are without merit.
Mystical is free to talk about power levels however much they like, that doesn't mean we aren't free to disagree or make a joke about the situation.
Personally, I think a little humor is necessary sometimes especially when talking about stories the feature jet pack apes, kangaroos that can criss-cross planets and women that can be shot into space with a canon without any harm to themselves.
Yeah, I thought this was what we had the power level thread for.
