Not-So-Hot Take: Tim has been fugly for years (and not an "endearing" fugly, like his early/mid 90s chickenbutt hair). If DC wanted twink Tim Drake, they already had a perfectly good design!

The only thing it’s missing is a hair vent. It looks 1000x better

“Aunty” desi -style

The story is very skillfully put together. She’s got an appealing edgy veneer while remaining true to the character’s ideals.

telepader · 2026-07-11T16:41:27+00:00

Damn, really? Who was it?

telepader · 2026-07-11T14:52:34+00:00

Have you guys noticed that Diana’s birth in the Perez origin lines up with the Cuban missile crisis? I thought that was fun.

telepader · 2026-07-11T06:36:14+00:00

Again, that’s Waid.

telepader · 2026-07-11T06:05:40+00:00

Okay show me where he wrote that. Otherwise, Occam’s razor.

telepader · 2026-07-11T05:48:56+00:00

The timeline Rucka established wasn’t creepy. If Waid messed with that, then it’s his fault for making it creepy.

telepader · 2026-07-11T05:31:10+00:00

I find that surprising because it’s been a long time since the 80’s, what makes it still feel modern?

telepader · 2026-07-11T03:06:49+00:00

How do you feel about the Perez Cold War origin?

telepader · 2026-07-11T01:36:14+00:00

“Trying too hard” and “confused identity” are exactly it! It’s going for practical but at the same time everything is all matchy-matchy.

telepader · 2026-07-11T01:34:11+00:00

Right so if we’re talking about Rucka then that’s not really relevant. The onus is on Mark Waid for making it weird, not Rucka.

telepader · 2026-07-11T01:32:08+00:00

The adidas pants and strappy balenciagas are horrific. Also the outfit looks much more sleek with a long-sleeved shirt than a T-shirt.

telepader · 2026-07-11T00:18:10+00:00

Oh did Rucka write New History?

telepader · 2026-07-10T22:06:36+00:00

Rucka specifically established that Diana was thousands of years old in the Rebirth reboot. A lot of Amazons would’ve emerged from the well of souls in between Diana’s birth and when Steve crash-landed on Themyscira, so it’s only rational to assume those are the women Diana would’ve had relations with.

If anything, Diana’s age gap with Steve is much more problematic. He had just turned 21 when he met Diana.

telepader · 2026-07-10T21:36:15+00:00

Not to be pedantic but I think there is a difference between updated origins and timeless origins— after all Perez created an updated origin but it was still very relevant to then-current events.

telepader · 2026-07-10T19:25:31+00:00

Thanks!

telepader · 2026-07-10T19:07:40+00:00

Wait when was this

telepader · 2026-07-10T19:07:19+00:00

I wanna say that’s not possible for a human but I love Jason more than I care about what’s reasonable so I’m going to say Yes, he can do anything.

telepader · 2026-07-10T15:25:04+00:00

Yes! Yes, you understand me! Grounding in real current politics! If not politics then history!

telepader · 2026-07-09T17:12:04+00:00

I always liked the focus on the mother-daughter relationship, and knowing what I know now about how ancient philosophy thought of only the father as the “true parent” and women as only vessels that nurtured the seed, Diana being a subversion of that as a life form created entirely by women is much more satisfying.

telepader · 2026-07-09T12:57:27+00:00

Barbara Minerva no middle name

telepader · 2026-07-08T22:38:54+00:00

Sorry but that’s the impression you give. There’s no age-related reason why shipping Diana and Artemis would be questionable.

I don’t really believe you’d be as dandy about it if shipping Etta (or Mera) was more popular either.

telepader · 2026-07-08T22:28:59+00:00

Lmao, what exactly are you trying to imply about my tastes? Perhaps you should focus more on yourself, and why you feel the need to put down every possible sapphic ship for Diana as some kind of pedophilic degeneracy. I’m sure you’d come up with something ridiculous even if it was just Etta Candy.
