“By our standards where I am standing of 2016, Themyscira is a queer culture. I’m not hedging that. And anyone who wants to prevaricate on that is being silly.”

From Wonder Woman scribe Greg Rucka:

I think it’s more complicated though. This is inherently the problem with Diana: we’ve had a long history of people — for a variety of reasons, including sometimes pure titillation, which I think is the worst reason — say, ‘Ooo. Look. It’s the Amazons. They’re gay!’

And when you start to think about giving the concept of Themyscira its due, the answer is, ‘How can they not all be in same sex relationships?’ Right? It makes no logical sense otherwise. 

It’s supposed to be paradise. You’re supposed to be able to live happily. You’re supposed to be able — in a context where one can live happily, and part of what an individual needs for that happiness is to have a partner — to have a fulfilling, romantic and sexual relationship. And the only options are women. 

But an Amazon doesn’t look at another Amazon and say, “You’re gay.” They don’t. The concept doesn’t exist.”

BLEEDING COOL's Octavio Karbank remembers Cathy Lee Crosby's terrible outing as Wonder Woman!

From BLEEDING COOL

Starring Cathy Lee Crosby, better known for anything else she ever did, and directed by Vincent McEeety, meet the powerless, karate-choppin’, lasso and tiara-less, blond Wonder Woman! Oh, and she has a utility belt. Do any of those things sound remotely like Wonder Woman? If you answered no, you’re correct! However, ABC didn’t really care what you or anyone else thought and figured this Wonder Woman should don an outfit that looked like an Olympic skiing jumpsuit. The only real connection to Wonder Woman is Crosby’s character, named Diana Prince, who just so happens to be an Amazon, and the relatively faithful origin. Similar to the comics, Diana is sent from her home in Themyscira to our world, but everything goes positively bonkers from there...

WONDER WOMAN TRIFECTA PART ONE! "How Does the Porn Industry Do DC Movies Better than WB?"

From Topless Robot

 

 

This is Kimberly Kane as Wonder Woman, from a forthcoming Axel Braun movie. A porn parody version of DC's top female superhero, who still has yet to get a big-budget film of her own.

 

Now, we can be honest and say that nobody expects Kane to have Helen Mirren-level thespian skills - but would you or would you not pay to see someone who looked like that flying an invisible jet, facing down the god of war and lassoing bad guys...in a movie without penetration?

 

Oh no. If DC does anything, it'll be a TV show in which she doesn't wear a costume anything like the one she's known for. Meanwhile, a pornographer's expensive fan fiction nabs all the horny nerd dollars...
