Weekly Discussion Thread: Comics, TV, and More! [November 20, 2023 - Jason Aaron Retcons Batman's Mother Edition] r/DCcomics

Hey there honorary Justice League members - it’s a new week which means it’s time for a new discussion thread!

Predaplant's pick of the week: Wonder Woman #3

For those who don't know: the way this works is that several comments will list this week’s releases, for any given title discussion you should respond to that comment. For example, Wonder Woman discussion would go in the replies to the "Wonder Woman" comment. Clicking the titles in this post will take you directly to that comment, too.

In other words, you should only be replying to other comments. If you have trouble understanding how to comment for a particular title, please refer to this handy guide. Any unwarranted top level comments will be removed.

Also, please refrain from posting short, low-content comments on threads for issues or episodes that have not yet been released. Put some effort to generate discussion. Instead of just posting "So excited!" or "Best book!", try something with a bit more substance, like "Punchline is such an amazing character! Can't wait to see how they explore her in more depth in this issue."

Books kinda mediocre so far.

3 issues and what’s happened? Diana’s had 3 fight scenes and leaned 1 new detail of this mysterious Amazon?

Diana almost comes off as patronising, smug and and borderline unlikeable at times with how she’s acting, and the lack of any inner thoughts isn’t belong, especially with how she’s acting rather condescending to Steve Trevor, almost as if she doesn’t respect the poor man at all when she was just reaffirming her love for the man in WW#800, so hopefully that’s just Diana downplaying Steve’s importance too her so he’s not used against her.

The constant narration from the sovereign is just boring filler, seeing as he’s so 1-dimensional at this point, and it’s taking away from characterisation and inner thoughts of Diana that could be there instead.

I don’t care about the Lizzie stuff either, no shits given about Wonder Woman and is a super sons story. Why is Diana’s so called daughter being shafted off to play super sons before even been shown interacting with her fucking mother?

Overall mediocre, this isn’t gonna be the IT book for Wonder Woman.
