Text of the page (random words):
l along wonder woman is an ambassador yes she is more widely known as a princess but i ve always suspected that is in no way how she envisions herself wonder woman sees herself as an extension of her mother hippolyta s heart and that heart beats for themyscira it is a place of equality knowledge and most of all loving diplomacy and that love and the place where it comes from has chosen her in the first pages of rucka s run he literally has her walk through the doors of her homeland themyscira s newly established american embassy she is smiling she is enthusiastic she sees in full the possibilities diplomacy can bring to the collective table sadly that enthusiasm was largely met with suspicion themyscira where she calls home sat cloaked in isolation for centuries they worshiped old gods they claimed their origins from these old gods the themysciran amazons were known for their ferocity in battle and here was the princess diana their greatest warrior with her hand outstretched ready to be received the world with its focuses on division was not ready especially from a woman i thought it was brilliant wonder woman child of the greek gods is essentially a modern day sisyphus the suffering of others is the boulder she will gladly push against and hope to defeat for the rest of her days some for unknown reasons view diana s grace as something to be tested much in the way that i suspect that she sees herself as an ambassador the world at large sees her as a threat before the world at large got its first glimpse of princess diana she fist fought ares the god of war let s think about that she fought ares and walked away knowing the war against war was winnable in wonder woman we have someone willing to fight to the death for peace in order to assure that there will be a tomorrow she is willing to throw down today as surely as she was blessed with the wisdom of athena she was blessed with the righteous war spirit of her mother she is not batman she does not go out into the night looking for signs of trouble she operates more as a beacon for the troubled and yes the troubled find her and there it is troubled souls find her the current silver swan vanessa kapatelis was crippled during a battle between wonder woman and major disaster over time she and her mother julia became closer with diana to the point they became as close as family sadly vanessa s mother passed away and as diana s responsibilities grew she saw less and less of vanessa leading her to feel abandoned by the one person she felt she had left in this world following an experimental procedures gone out of control vanessa had a psychotic break and became a dark version of a fictional hero she d created with diana during her convalescence barbara minerva a brilliant polymath she s forced into marriage with an old god and forever bound with the cannibalistic form of the cheetah veronica cale with a mind as great as any in the dcu sees herself locked into a battle of wills and ideologies with wonder woman in all actuality she s at war with her own self hate which ultimately lost her her daughter and the care of her former best friend doctor cyber the tragedy with most diana s rogues gallery is that had someone intervened at a crucial moment they could have been counted among the allies of course other wonder woman villains are just kinda underdeveloped giganta a character created nearly eighty years ago gained more personality in gail simone s run on the all new atom series as the atom s love interest that was a decade ago to this day writers tend to write her as grows big fights wonder woman or glorified background goon villain events will soon be knocked out with one punch when you consistently use characters as cardboard stand ups used to fill a panel of course they become viewed as weak this can be fixed all it takes is care and the right person to see the potential within wonder woman s sphere not very long ago writer paul dini did a thing in batman the animated series episode heart of ice mister freeze became one of the most complex and relatable characters in dc comics wonder woman s rogues gallery is almost entirely in play for a break out in the pages of justice league dark wonder woman villain circe is displaying nuance rarely seen in her home title wonder woman doctor psycho the misogynistic mindbender seen recently in the harley quinn cartoon series is sadly more relevant than ever ares the god of war should be someone darkseid seeker of the anti life equation should always have on his radar someone just has to care enough to make it happen unyielding passion care about the rogues as deeply as wonder woman that is the key to making wonder woman your own labels wonder woman posted by devon sanders 7 16 am 4 comments friday may 22 2020 comic legend revealed for me i asked pal and great comic detective brian cronin at comic book resources a question as to why legendary cartoonist alextoth pulled his black canary cover before publication in birds of prey 66 once again brian came through labels black canary posted by devon sanders 9 26 pm 2 comments sunday april 26 2020 made in dc and how i learned to heart the 90 s removes the cellophane and cracks open a cd case inhaling the plastic y chemical whiff and now i am ready to write about dc comics in the 90 s specifically the three heroes that defined a shift in the way i came to love dc comics today i have returned to stately seven hells manor via my personal underground subway to express my sincere appreciation and to gather stacks of one dollar bills for later wink to wally west dick grayson and kyle rayner for making my late teens to early thirties comics experience the absolute best picture it the early 90 s a young devon fresh from practicing that kid n play grab your foot move your ankle to your knee jump while holding your foot and try and not die thing and not really feeling dc comics the way he did back in the early 80 s if there wasn t an x an image comics logo or a she hulk on the cover it wasn t really his thing as he walked into the local comics shop swimming past a sea of variant covers and lingerie and swimsuit issues featuring our comic book girlfriends there was it was flash 80 featuring wally west it was shiny seriously it was literally shiny it sported a shiny cover drawn by alan davis one of if not my favorite artist of the time it had something else though at the time i had no idea how great it was issue 80 featured the debut of new flash artist mike wieringo i can still remember the feeling it was like the first time i d walked into my local drug store and saw john byrne s man of steel or the first time i saw arthur adams longshot i knew comics had changed i d read flash before i knew wally had been kid flash before i got that his taking over the mantle of the flash was a big deal to comics i knew that he was the first sidekick to graduate so to speak i hadn t really followed anything he d done for a while though i just kinda didn t care i was happy that he took the mantle because to me all barry allen ever was was the guy who raced superman from time to time wally was different wally had a little bit of swag he dated around he won the lottery once he had problems he wasn t as fast as barry so he had to work harder he even bothered to get to know some of his rogue s gallery a little better and won their respect but somewhere along the line i just lost touch until that issue thanks to writer mark waid wally was still there but the art was more kinetic the writing spoke to how hard it was to honor a legacy while trying to find your own way over time waid introduced this thing the speed force a supreme manifestation of velocity a thing only a select few could access and the deeper you went within the easier it was to over take you twenty something devon understood wait the flashes are like speed jedi this is the force they re not just runs fast anymore got it wally went on to stand side by side with the heroes his uncle barry had to have told him tales of we got to see the awe in his eyes as he watched superman wrestled a war angel while the martian manhunter and wonder woman held back a crashing flaming ark literally plummeting from the heavens flash 80 was the beginning of wally west becoming my flash this was where i truly became a fan of dc comics i wanted in i wanted to be made my money was not long in anyway during the 90 s money that was earmarked for the houses of idea and image was soon reallocated towards rediscovering the dc universe and a new generation that was ready to step in and up in the pages of batman bruce wayne s back was literally broken by fan wishes that in continuity batman become more like the never meant to be continuity dark knight returns batman in a grand experiment their fetish was rewarded with the knightfall saga and a newer angrier armor ier batman in jean paul valley who would kill and it didn t go so well for anyone except for maybe former batman sidekick dick grayson who at the time iirc had been nightwing for a while but hadn t really done much more than declare every other issue that he wasn t robin anymore you d think that dick would ve been the one to take over the batman mantle but nah didn t happen dc needed to make a point that batman shouldn t kill so shrug no nightwing when this whole backbreaking thing ended dick did come back and took on the batman mantle for a bit and for a weird thing happened i think we kinda got the nightwing we all were hoping for a man with the teeth to truly be batman but had so good of a heart that we wouldn t want him to have to carry that burden with the 1996 nightwing series we finally saw the post crisis dick grayson nightwing come into his own in the pages of green lantern to me hal jordan was pretty much nothing more than a cool costume there were other green lanterns but eh they were just more space cops with different heads and limbs attached so when hal jordan killed the entire freakin gl corps in an attempt to become god and reboot continuity we were left with no more of those awesome green lantern costumes pity they looked great enter kyle rayner a young twenty something who had zero interest in becoming a hero much less the final wielder of the power ring a weapon with roots steeped within the dawn of creation kyle was a kyle and no offense to kyles but the words kyle cured cancer yesterday will never come out of anyone s mouth this kyle was gifted though he was a comic book artist he liked nine inch nails again kyles will never cure cancer and as the green lantern corps came to a shocking and bloody end the final ring went out normally the ring upon the death of a lantern would go out to the bravest in any particular sector of space this time it just sorta went out and a comic book loving dude standing in an alleyway became the green lantern no one to show him the ropes there wasn t even a damn training manual for the dang ring or its energy source the power battery he was what would happen if one of the dc universe s greatest weapons were slipped upon our finger he was out of his depth alone bound to make mistakes anxious trying to juggle his commitments and dealing with impostor syndrome kyle rayner was many of us in our twenties and i will forever love him for that i wrote this about kyle back in 06 when batman openly questioned kyle s ability to do the job kyle quietly carried on the tradition of having a green lantern within the justice league he did all of this for no other reason than someone had to do it kyle rayner had no guardians of the universe to guide his hand he had no corps to back his play when and if he fell today is another matter entirely the green lantern corps have returned in their own series no less stronger than ever hal jordan and the guardians of the universe are back better than ever there will be a green lantern in the upcoming justice league of america title why kyle rayner armed with nothing more than a weapon and a sense of right and wrong kyle held the f ckin line until something greater than himself could emerge not hal jordan not guy gardner not john stewart just kyle rayner kyle rayner ultimately became who we d hoped we d be in our twenties he simply became better these are my memories of dc comics 90 s output and i recall them with fondness these are the heroes i chose wally west will always be my flash kyle is my green lantern and nightwing when i think about what he is he s a hero who still smiles these are the heroes that i will forever associate with my favorite period in comics i am made labels 90 s flash kyle rayner nightwing posted by devon sanders 10 04 am 1 comments tuesday january 22 2019 do we still need a justice league i m in a sort of weird place with my dc comics lately i still read them i m not in that new 52 sinkhole dc forced me into i still very much love the characters i m head over heels for tom king s batman with wonder woman i m five issues in and waiting for something to happen with g willow wilson s wonder woman run it s good but i don t know i m kinda hoping this isn t another for whom the gods would destroy thing buying young justice 1 made me realize just how much i missed seeing robin superboy impulse and wonder girl all on the same page and justice leagu e i wish i could say that i was reading it but i m not it s not because of the creative team it s stellar scott snyder jim cheung and jorge jimenez are any publisher s dream team it has everything i should want the martian manhunter has been firmly placed back within its ranks it has the trinity of superman batman wonder woman it has a flash and an but the older i get the more i believe the justice league shouldn t be a thing i can just buy once a month why there s always something bigger than the justice league in the big event books and frankly i feel like it s diminished the impact of the justice league this isn t on anyone in particular but to me reading the justice league feels more like an obligation than a privilege once to twice a year we re told the fate of the universe is at stake while in their own book the league rises to meet whatever alien invasion of the month or another fate of the multiverse thing leading into an event and i see a lessening the 1986 dc event legends was used to show the necessity of a justice league now the justice league has come to serve the event i ve said it once and i ll say it again when something so big happens that it has to bring superman batman and wonder woman into the same room you should feel like things are gonna be alright what big crossover events have shown me lately is that when a flash walks into a room you should be worried because the timestream is fubar the flash to me since flashpoint signals that a story is about to get really long and complicated i m not putting my apathy for the jl on the flash i love the guy the league isn t a league without a flash more what i m trying to say is that i just want to feel the wonder of seeing these...
