Wonder Woman in Blackest Night: one panel summary

[thebigapricot]

Comics Alliance has put up what I think is a pretty accurate (and funny) 60 second overview of Blackest Night. My favorite is Wonder Woman.


And for legality, Wonder Woman and her "crush" in the Hiketeia

Imo, something goes wrong, he finds another way to win, because he's BATMAN.

And thank you for proving my point so perfectly, dear Batfan. :)

Just try to keep in mind, one of the fundamental aspects of Batman is 'the victory is in the preparation.' And when he's dealing with beings that could reduce him into a thin red smear without any appreciable effort, he needs a fuckton of preparation... Which he's taken care of, because he's Batman.

But when he's outclassed by this much power, most of Batman's fight is wearing the other side down enough that he can handle them himself- and the margin for error is pretty well nonexistent. It's a testament to the awesomeness of Batman how rarely that happens, but even he can be surprised (hence the Joker's continued threat)- and mechanical failures are a fact of life.

Any part of the plan goes wrong, and instead of dealing with a battered messed-up hero that's ready for the knockout, he's dealing with a pissed-off hero with plenty of fight left... who happens to be almost infinitely faster than he is and could blow his heart out through his spine with a well-placed breath.

But again, that practically never happens... because he's BATMAN.
