I think Zeus having a hand in the clay is possible--especially since the cover for #3 is a statue of Diana cracked to pieces. Azzarello's always been a bit hyperbolic in his description of things.
Plus, doesn't the clay origin typically use lightning to strike life into the mold? Making Zeus be the sole person might make more sense, since throwing lightning's kinda his shtick, and having it being one man strike the seed of life to create a child has a bit more narrative weight.
Yes, in this interpretation, the lightning would sorta be his penis.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
