PATREON | Wonder Woman 1984 Review

Following the success of 2017’s Wonder Woman, Warner Bros knew they had to follow that up with a sequel that continued the titular heroine’s journey in a way that built on the foundation of the first film, but took her in a bolder new direction. The opening sequence of Wonder Woman 1984 does exactly that when it states its new thesis for the film: you have to work for the things you want in life and can’t take any shortcuts to get there!

Countdown to 2021: Huntress Q&A 25 December 2020

Ashford and Diane discuss @MWDanvers questions:

1. If Helena wasn't part of the JSA or Infinity Inc what team do you think she would be on?

2. With Helena's biggest relationship being with Kara would you have her come out as queer?

3. If she got a new comic what creators would you have?

4. Is there anything from the Paul Levitz or Joey Cavalieri runs that you wish the creators could’ve went into more detail?

5. Would Helena work in more magical/cosmic stories or does she just work at street level.

'I don't know much about the Huntress but I'm curious so I wanna ask, best Huntress books that you read and why you think it's the best?? It can be a solo or a group. And either Helena Wayne or Helena Bertinelli. Or both.'

Ashford and Diane discuss @addison_hl222's question:

'How would you feel if DC combined the best elements of Helena Wayne and Helena Bertinelli to create a singular version of Huntress to exist in the main continuity (or prime earth)? I myself don't know if I'd like that or not.'

Tales From The Dark Multiverse: Crisis On Infinite Earths #1 Review

Title:
Tales From The Dark Multiverse 
Story: Crisis On Infinite Earths
Characters: Huntress (Helena Wayne), Power Girl (Kara Zor-L), Fury (Lyta Trevor), Green Lantern (Alan Scott), Flash (Jay Garrick), Wildcat (Ted Grant), Obsidian (Todd Rice), Jade (Jennifer-Lynn Hayden), Shiera Hall (Hawkwoman)
Creators: Steve Orlando (writer), Mike Perkins (artist)
Publication Date: 15 December 2020

Summary: Welcome to a universe where the events of Crisis on Infinite Earths resulted in the destruction of the infinite multiverse, but instead of a New Earth being forged with Earth-1 as the base template, Earth-2 takes on this role. No longer acknowledged by history, the Justice League of America put up a fight against the infant Earth's newest threat, Surtur, but they are no match for the fiery giant who quickly disposes them. Now standing up in defence of their new Earth, the Justice Society of America joins forces with Infinity Inc, the Seven Soldiers of Victory, and the Freedom Fighters as the new All-Star Squadron to take down the fiery giant once and for all. But do they have the strength and power to do so without any casualties of their own? Welcome to the Dark Multiverse, where familiar events from the multiverse above top take a sharp turn for the worst in the multiverse below!

Ashford and Diane discuss @randykh172's question:

'How do you think Helena Wayne handled her last few hours in Crisis when she found out she didn’t exist anymore? The authors wrote her as a traumatised wreck but she was always written as one of the most level-headed and calm super-heroine in the DC universe.'

Goodbye 2020! The End Of A Bad Start To A New Decade

Here we are. Last month of a terribly bonkers year. I honestly can't recall what I even accomplished this year since so much of what I had planned went unexecuted as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, plus being tight on funds. Since getting laid off in August, so much of my energy has been going towards pursuing new career opportunities, and so far, that's been going pretty slow. I more recently applied for a writer position at a major entertainment news site, so here's to hoping for some progression.
