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

Eyes of the Gorgon. It is only a training fight, but she's blind and fighting about six superheroes, including Batman, and beats them all. :)

That was a fun one :) Though Bats stays back enough that he doesn't get too much pounding.

Yeah. If you actually read that storyline, she compliments Bruce for being one of the only heroes who actually managed to hurt her in that melee.

I also think "League of One" is just as insulting and treats Diana as just as much an idiot as apparently "Tower of Babel" treats Batman. And fair enough. When Batman stupidly puts his team-mates in mortal danger for no real reason over something that sorts itself out anyway, it's so much worse when Diana stupidly puts her team-mates in mortal danger for no real reason over something that sorts itself out anyway.

Getting them out of the way *does* prevent the dragon from killing them, when she fights it she comments it's breath'd be fatal to any of them.

for no real reason

Uh, no? The Oracle predicts that all who fight the dragon will die.

And, indeed, all who fight the dragon die.

Diana ensured that all the others did not fight the dragon and did not die.

The discussion between Diana and Bruce centres around their conflicting beliefs - Diana believes the Oracle at Delphae is never wrong in its predictions, Bruce believes it's so much mumbo-jumbo. Similar to the talk in Hiketeia, where Bruce doesn't really believe that Diana's beliefs and traditions are relevant.

This is because Bats is smart.
