Hey, Texas.

Ah, Orana, the proto-Artemis. Fully admitted by Messner-Loebs to be one of two direct insirations for Diana's more well known personal rival. The other one of course being Zealot of WildC.A.T.S fame, herself being obviously inspired by Wondy in general. So it's all a nice little recursive recycling of ideas. Originality is such gloriously bullshit concept.

I have to wonder if Storyteller would waifu her too.

One of the oddest disparities in Wondie fandom is whether or not she should be able to fly freely.

I feel like those who say she shouldn't fly at all tend to be people who want her to be girl Kratos or (ironically) Hawkgirl.

Personally I like when she can just "glide on air currents"-- that way she can fly but needs the jet to cross great distances and it differentiates her from Superman more.

Precisely. Specifically Bolland's covers, of course.

Deodato's pretty indefensible if you ask me but for some reason some people think he's great.

Ironically his art is better the more he traces.

>>91416086
This is Bronze Age but Silver Age IMO is a bit weak, probably the weakest of DC's major characters in the SA. However, I think it's by far the most hilarious. You know all the crazy shit you see on SA Superman covers? In Wondie it's even crazier, and the craziness permeates the whole issue instead of just the cover and certain panels.

It's aimed at little girls so you have to be in a certain mood to read it.

So we're seeing here how the Amazons used to be pretty technologically advanced, something I'm actually a big fan of. Perez did away with it and it hasn't really come back at all since then, but Morrison brought it back in Earth One, and I think they did an amazing job of it.

It's admittedly difficult to make sci-fi designs fit in with the ancient Greek aesthetic, but Paquette nailed it.

Honestly, I'm okay with being able to flying and having the jet simultaneously. I don't see why it has to be either or.

Put a gun to my head though, I gotta go with the jet. Jet can cloak, and carry much more stuff than Diana could on her own, as well as being equipped with weaponry, so it's ultimately got more practical value than vanilla flight powers.

Plus it fits in with the theme of Diana existing between the worlds of myth and modern. As the Invisible Jet is often a mix of both, depending on iteration.

Exactly what I say when people ask "why does she need the jet when she can fly?". It's like asking why have a fighter jet when you can use a jetpack.

>>91416242
I totally forgot about that series. An ex of mine's dad was a big comic guy and was telling me "hey you gotta read this DC series, it's like Harry Potter" and I was like "You mean Tim Hunter?" and he was like "No, I can't remember what it was called, his name began with a T" "Dude I'm pretty sure that was Tim Hunter" "No I swear it wasn't"

I looked like a dumbass when I found out about Unwritten.

Same. The Amazons having tons of crazy high tech shit is cool, dammit.

And I hate when people bitch about how they allegedly could never do this due to their isolation, but really, they're immortal and have precious little better to do than make gadgets. Plus, nobody ever seems to mind Wakanda doing that. Interesting.

Speaking of Paquette, it was a huge relief when Trial turned out to be actually good. Was a little worried for it, honestly.

Speaking of Earth One, though I bought it the day it came out, I just started reading it today. Obviously it's a little too out-there for mainstream readers probably, but I do think Wondie writers today could take note of some elements.

Also funny how Earth One was conceived as DC's Ultimate line yet Trial is the most off-the-wall depiction of Wonder Woman in decades.

Remember when books didn't drag on for half a year with little to no progress? Remember when one-and-dones were actually a thing, and a story lasting more than one issue was a big deal?

Decompression has gotten seriously out of control.

>>91416567
One thing in particular I took away from Trial is that while Diana is portrayed as her usual warm, kind-hearted self, she has this subtle touch of arrogance about her. Like, she truly wants to help people and loves everyone as usual, she comes off as mildly condescending about it.

I like that. Admittedly, she can be a bit of a goody good, but having an innocent "I know what's best for you. :)" attitude would be a good flaw to have her work with.

So basically right after when they got letters asking how the fuck this was possible Haney was like "oops, a little help Robert?"

>Exactly what I say when people ask "why does she need the jet when she can fly?". It's like asking why have a fighter jet when you can use a jetpack.

Or why have a car when you can walk.

Just make the jet faster than her (bs stuff about the speed of Hermes being short bursts or something) and have her use it to carry shit. Or upsize it to like a Learjet or something and have her squat in it.

Added.

There's an arc after where we ended with Perez that kind of explores how some of the Amazons DO hate men, admittedly irrationally. Helene talks about how she forgives Hercules on one level but on another can't stand the thought of that ever happening again.

Because you gotta induct people into the cult of personality as fast as possible, before they start to form independent opinions.

Conrad Starfield from NASA sounds too nominatively deterministic for him to not be a supervillain in disguise.

So far the way it is is that when she left Themyscira the first time, she could never come back because of Aphrodite's whole agreement with the Amazons.

So the Azzazons were all an illusion cast by an unknown enemy.

We haven't seen who did it or why yet, and it hasn't been cleared up what exactly from the run will remain canon, if anything. She's referenced Zola and all the non-Amazons but it's not clear if anything involving the gods actually happened.

You know, I'd HEARD that the T&A heavy The Contest story was a reimagining of an earlier story but never read the old one, so thanks!
Seriously though, The Contest has a ridiculous amount of ass. Deodato wasn't subtle about drawing women back then, at all. He didn't even have the benefit of heavy shading like he does today to disguise how much he liked butts.

I actually don't mind her being unflying and being more like a traditonal Greek hero, but if she had flight/gliding linked to a Greek myth thing such as the Talaria (Hermes winged sandles) then that works for me.
It's more that the invisible plane is wildly incongruous with Amazon technology; if they are a race of super-scientists then it works, if not and they just used pseudo-Hellenic weapons and armor only then it'd be like if Hercules in Marvel suddenly gained a flying dirtbike or something.

One of her biggest issues is consistency; it feels like her powers change every new writing team and that is NOT good for a character in many ways.

There's entire New Teen Titans arc where they DO in fact establish the gods are fucking crazy.
A trio of 18-19 year old girls are forced to resolve a conflict between the Greek pantheon and the Titans that both groups of deities themselves aren't mature enough to actually resolve.
