The Wonder Woman trainwreck keeps on keeping on

It's a dark time in the DC universe. The Wonder Woman title is still stuck in some kind of inexplicable AU timeline where Diana finally got to wear pants, in exchange for not being actually heroic or effective or competent or anything.

How the main universe and nu!Wondy are even supposed to make sense together (since Wondy Classic has been MIA since this started) has so far stayed a vague, wibbly-wobbly-timey-wimey open question. And as such a pivotal turning point for Wonder Woman the character *and* the mythos, of course somebody decided that it would best to reveal such a crucial part of her superhero origin in Superman's book and make it all. About. Him. (See exhibits A, B, C, D, E, and F for Why This Is Stupid And Sexist As Hell.)

Naturally, jlbarnett, limitless source of the unfunny, is just plain oblivious to logic as well as patronizing, spawning a long thread about the nature of the phrase "calm down." Apparently being angry with sexism is the real oppression at work here. Who knew?

	I did not read that as titties. At all. Nooooope. But yes, I completely understand why. I just can't get into them. I need to check out my LCS since they're kinda awesome and seem to like me. Find some independent paperbacks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Well. If there were any titties I was scoping, it was the ones in Platinum Grit. (PlatinumGrit.com). Cause they were drawn somewhat realistically. The ones in most comics don't ping my pervy radar, sadly. ;) So you were almost right. LOL!

Yeah, it's a-diggin' and word-of-mouth for most of the comics I get into, so it's hard to find them, but once you do - oh GOD, YES! Platinum Grit is really good, btw. /pluggin'

	And again, I read Platinum Grit as PG. My brain went "Well, yes, the window allows such a thing." I probably did that because I noticed my Connor PG sitting on my shelves when I was shifting. I'm almost convinced you like Platinum Grit. Almost. Not quite. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I might like it just a bit. A little. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Nah. It's all ho-hum. That's all it'll be. You know. Just a step above Gummi Bears but below Inspector Gadget. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Gadget... Grit... Gummi... What, alphabetically? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I really have messed you up when I almost said "Go Go Gadget" instead of Inspector. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I'm just making Cordy seem linear is all. (Reply to this)(Parent)
