Although I didn't like the Marvel Amazons in general, I quite liked her as a character.

[greenmask]

I'm just impressed she has real silk stockings.

[shadowpsykie]

is she present in the current Chaos War story line? i know she was in the first issue...

[irrelevant]

She has. A scrunchie of death.

....I think I'm in love.

[xammax]

Is it wrong I prefer her over most DC Amazons?

[darkblade]

Same nit pick I had when I first saw these pages. Japanese steel frankly sucks thats why they historically put such care into their swords, because they had to compinsate for the impurities in the metal.

Still doesn't detract from Delphyn's badass.

[jacknoir]

Delphyne! I still think her relationship with Amadeus has been a little rushed, but I have a hard time caring too much about that when she is being such an utter badass.

[blackruzsa]

What I love about Delphyne is that no matter how tough a Gorgon Amazon she is, her romance with Amadeus shows her inner teenage girl xD

[khamelea]

That last line is glorious.

Clarification, please. Is 'New Tartarus' meant to be the latest incarnation of the OLD Tartarus - i.e, the punishing grounds of the afterlife - gone all high-tech, or is it simply a name?
Also, is it my imagination, or does that 'Death scrunchie' have SKULLS on it?

I just want to say thanks to EVERYONE for posting over the past week. I had no idea how many AWESOME female characters have been created in the last few years. I recognized and knew them all, but holy crap, there's been a deluge of them.

In a good way. :)

Delphyne is the best new character, period.

[ondine]

fuck, this is AWESOME (and I don't use that word lightly, especially when it's in all-caps)

[ravenous_raven]

Before Delphyne's human form was revealed, did anyone else think that she would be an African-American girl with dreads?

Also, how are people not turning to stone when they make eye contact with her?

[fifthie]

She's not actually firing her gun in that last panel, that last line was just so sicknasty it literally went through that dude like a bullet.

So what`s the Herc title like? I`m all sold for Thor et Co, but I`ve never checked Marvel`s Greek pantheon...

[halloweenjack]

The strapping-on-of-the-weapons scene is such an action cliche, but van Lente has so much fun with it (complete with death scrunchie) that I can forgive him for working on Spider-Man.

[morgana006]

Love her.


That is all.
