Money is likely the reason all comics are made but this direction is hated by everyone that I have ever even heard voice an opinion on it. It got a little bit of news time with the new outfit but that was the only thing that some people liked. It would have been better if Diana just decided to wear a new outfit. It is not like she has not done it before. Anyone remember the biker suit? Admittedly, I liked the biker outfit just because it looked good.  Oddly enough, Gambler apparently likes the new direction Wonder Woman has been taking, but I have never heard his explanation for that. But I think part of it (not all but part) has to do with him preferring a more bloodlusted Wonder Woman, which is not something I like very much. There are probably other reasons though, and I will not speak for him. But I really have yet to understand how any long-time Wonder Woman fans enjoy it. I think Babs liked it at first but grew to dislike it or at least lost interest in it after a while. |

I liked the biker outfit as well but I hated the stories. Damn you Bill Messner-Loebs!

I usually have no problem with character costume changes as long as the change is temporary. Honestly, how could I be upset every time a character undergoes a costume change? I am a Spider-Man fan, after all.  |

Lol. I would not have minded if it were just a costume change. Different looks can sometimes be fun. It is funny, I used to think that Loebs was the worst thing that had ever happened to Diana. But at least his shit was just ignored for the most part. It is kind of hard to ignore what Straczynski has done to Diana.

No idea. It may be the next issue or the one after that, or maybe he already did. I have only been paying so much attention to the work behind the scenes because this arc irritates me. The reason I bumped this thread was to ask how many issues this arc is supposed to run for, which no one has answered.
So clearly, I am not the person to ask.

Lol. I bet I can do a review on the entire arc in fewer than 4 sentences using colorful language but that will not get much positive feedback lol. So I will do real reviews. I will read through the 7 issues tomorrow and should have the review up sometime later in the day.

Another strange plot point is that throughout this arc so far, Diana has been on a remorseless killing spree against the people who attacked the Amazons, but then in issue 607, she all of a sudden seems to care about killing. Why she suddenly changed her mind is beyond me, but at the same time, the plot appears to be setting up so that she will be killing again.
So I have no idea where this is going, but like I said before, I hope the conclusions clears this mess up.

What's with WW tanking nukes, but she can be peirced by bullets? Diana has really high blunt force, energy and magic durability. She just cannot handle cutting and piercing force very well. |
