From Wonder Woman 600,



In addition, here is a promo clip from the upcoming Young Justice episode Happy Harbour, in which Robin and Wally say things I'd never expected to hear in a contemporary cartoon,


So Wally's a pervert and Dick treats Megan like a performing seal, good to know.

Still looking forward to the episode anyway. It has Brick in it. :D

I was about to agree... Diana may be letting them work out their issues on the own by feigning ignorance, but I keep forgetting she has that lasso on her hip.

Eh, the lasso's not that potent, and it is, after all, subject to Diana's control (she wouldn't be much use as a warrior if she couldn't even feint in combat). She's lied while wearing it before, and it's never been clear how much the lasso impacts jokes and sarcasm to begin with. Anyway, a casual momentary brush of the thing across exposed skin is a far cry from being wrapped in it while she channels power at you, and shouldn't kick in in this instance.

The only really odd thing (besides Cass' dialog, obviously) is that Peej seems to have just recently learned, from Clark, that Diana can talk to animals. Peej and Diana go way back, you'd think she might have noticed when they were serving on the League together, or when Diana was Peej's only contact with the outside world while she was hiding out in an amazon sanctuary during her mystical pregnancy.

Is the pregnancy still in continuity? I mean, I guess if nothing has been done to actively retcon it OUT, it still is...but I like to think them never mentioning it again means it isn't.

DC seems to have a really bad case of cringy-babyfic-humiliation over that whole era, though. The existence of the Justice League Task Force, the fact that Diana ever led a League (and in fact was specifically and personally hired to do so by none other than Maxwell Lord), the friendship between Kimyo and Wally (or, as mentioned, Diana and Peej), Fire's possibly queer sexuality, Guy's stint with the yellow ring, the fact that characters like Yazz, Maya, Maxima and Bloodwynd (the real one, not J'onn impersonating him -.<) were ever even created... all of that has been swept vigorously and aggressively under the rug. And I'd lay good money that had anyone but Andreyko been the next to use Todd, it would have been to ignore his arc there too and give him a girlfriend.

I hate the Peej pregnancy as much as the next disheartened, disgusted fangirl, but I can't get rid of it by saying "never referenced = never happened", because that means far too much else that was valuable and important never happened either. :/

This is all too true! I think it was Morrison that said anything that hasn't been actively retconned out of continuity is still in continuity, too? But, yeah, you're right. We must take what we can get these days, even if it means uh ... accepting the pregnancy. And I guess it could have been worse! It could have been like Donna's or Ms. Marvel's. Though, Peej didn't have any consent in her pregnancy which was just freaky.

I think when WW wears it, it's normally hanging in a way that it doesn't touch her.
