CT: On The Developments in Wonder Woman

NSFW For Referencing a Person Who'd Require a NSFW wiki-search.

By Me

The new improved Etta appeared in the new issue of Justice League as Steve Trevor's assistant, who Priapus is and what he did in Ovid's Fasti do not bear repeating.

to be fair the suddenly thin and african american (which i think is awesome) Etta Candy is probably inspored by the fact that she was going to be played by Traci Thoms in the aborted series.

I also have to giggle at the whole "not observant thing" i could totally see that happening..

also i am a shamed to admit it... I know SOME of the story of Priapus (the obvious *ahem* part...) but don't know the part that this is referencing *goes off to wiki*

	Oh, new Etta is awesome, though it seems amusing that she's also been slimmed down, like Amanda Waller. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 8 comments) (Show 8 comments)

	Also, to be honest, every single "Etta" I know in real life is African-American. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Hide 2 comments) (Show 2 comments)

	Really? Huh. The only people named Etta I know in real life are old white women, one of which is my grandmother. (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent) (Thread) (Expand) (Hide 1 comment) (Show 1 comment)

	Wait. They have a large number of male slaves, yet when they want to become pregnant, they go out to find men and kill them? Given that they're the product of Greek myths that weren't shy about a bit of incest here and there, aren't they missing an obvious solution?

	I actually like this issues revealation and the way this book is going. Its proving something I've thought for a long time, Diana is the only non-asshole in her books. (Reply to this) (Thread) (Hide 1 comment) (Show 1 comment)

	Really? You think Donna, Cassie, Hippolyta, Phillipus, Artemis, Vanessa, Etta, Steve (both versions), Julia, Nu'bia, Ferdinand, Leslie, Zola, or any of her other supporting characters that's she ever had are all assholes? o_O (Reply to this) (Thread from start) (Parent)

	Actually it is explained why Diana doesn't know. They only do it three times a century. Which is way to rarely, but they probably had to throw that in to explain why Diana hasn't done this herself (Reply to this) (Thread) (Hide 8 comments) (Show 8 comments)
