So far, this is two homeruns with the Absolute universe. If the Superman story delivers, I think this will be the start of something truly great for DC. This new take on Wonder Woman is fascinating and the most fun I think we've had with her in a while.
I wonder where Circe got those books. I don't doubt a certain world-famous e-commerce company delivers to hell, from what we hear all their warehouses have gateways directly there. The problem is Circe could never type the url 🤔
from another comment section ppl saying circe is also a warden of that island. so as kinda payment of doing her job the gods do bring supplies once in while. prior she didnt care until diana arrived and she started caring more as you saw with besides books she ask for blankets, carpets, stove, plants and such to make the place liveable. possible thoery but if true she is warden and one task was to keep diana on that island then i assume something bad happened to her for not keeping her there.
I'm so into this. I love WW being a _problem_ but in a good way again. I often kinda wondered why she can't do other stuff in the normal continunuity when it comes to being a demigoddess, I'm often surprised how limited her powerset is. But this book... looks like it's finally allowing us to bask in Wonder Woman like we're meant to.
So Batman is a blue collar, superhero wonder woman is not a princess she is just a warrior so then what is Superman going to be in the absolute universe?
Absolute DC up until now is making a far better debut of its first two titles than Marvel has been doing with the ultimate universe. I was not expecting absolute wonder woman to be this good. I am almost certain that absolute Superman will be a banger
Agreed DC Absolute universe is doing so much better than Marvel's new Ultimate universe. (I think Spiderman is the only one people are still following)
Absolute Superman is the one I'm most nervous/skeptical about since their is a bad track record whenever they make Superman dark and serious. But the other two Absolute origins did well so maybe it will work. I just don't want Lex Luthor to be the first main bad, give Supes other villains a chance to shine
i like new ultimate marvel but will agree the flaws with it is it does require some knowledge of old ultimate universe and bit of mainline comics to understand why new ultimate exist, the maker goal andsuch. do to that its hard to get newcomers into it or even returning readers if havnt catch up on key things in marvel comics leading to new ultimate. absolute you could easily recommend these issues to a new person without needing to read dc all in special or at best quicj summary and thats it.
@@patrickmcguire7896 I think with how Wonder Woman and Batman were handled I’m not too worried about Superman. At their core they are the same characters we know and love they just took a different path to get there.
Between the absolute Batman and this intriguing new take on Wonder Woman the Absolute Universe may actually cast the regular degular DC universe into the shadows of irrelevance entirely, especially if the upcoming Absolute releases maintain this standard of quality.
This issue was good but I notice that it has the same issues with other Wonder Woman comics, these aren't necessarily bad things but I think their factors into why Wonder Woman isn't as popular as the rest of the Trinity. First this is a great new origin story but Diana has had great origins before, I think the main thing working against her is she doesn't have much consistency. Unlike Superman & Batman she doesn't have her own city which she regularly protects, and she doesn't have a regular supporting cast. Steve Trevor and Etta sure but they're not always in every issue of hers. Plus most people don't even know her rouges gallery. I still have hope for this new series and version but these are just things I wanted to point out.
Blame the New 52 for making her "daughter of Zeus" which is an insult, her original origin is perfect. Frankly she protects the world from man and Themyscira, with the Amazon embassy as her base, and her supporting cast even includes the Olympian pantheon, the Amazons and her human friends, is bigger than the likes of Batman and Superman combined; and her villains deserve the attention.
Ngl I just absolute Batman and loved it. Gonna read this. I love this WW design it’s so cold 🥶🐐 If this level of writing is consistent, this might be my fav dc reboot run
I wonder what other abilities this Diana has since Circe is her mother in this universe and just how strong will she become? Also god this big ass sword is so fucking cool!
Can't even find this damn book anywhere in my town. We have two comic book shops one ordered no copies because nobody wanted any and the other has to wait a week before they even get one. What the hell is DC doing
I had no great hype for the absolute universe, but so far I am pleasantly surprised. I do agree it would have been better if she just beat the monster unless it is a main villain which I find to be super unlikely,
the fact this wonder women get raised in hell, she already my favorite we got absolute batman and now wonder women and also suppose absolute superman suppose be the only hero in this women, I can't wait
I'm still skeptical about this one but I want to check it out because at least you're thirsty in it but other than that I mean I'll give this one a shot even though I'm more I like the classic one a little bit more than I like this one I have to read this one soon just to get a good feel for what I might like about it or I might not like about it have a Wonder Woman fan All hope is it doesn't go into dark and edgy New 52 territory and if it does then I might not read it but other than that it sounds promising in the beginning and different but I still like the Golden Age origin and I still like the stuff from Jorge Perez and fill him in his it might take a while to grow on me maybe
I actually think quite the opposite. I think this comic does the same thing that Marvel MCU did to the comic books. It destroys the characters and gives them these false narratives that don’t actually work out in the long run. This is going to be one of those things of making the Scarlet, which not a mutant we’re just confuses the backstory And I did enjoy when there was a clear separation between anime and western comics. Wonder woman looks Asian. She looks like Avatar Koshi. And less like wonder, woman Diana
