I pretty much liked how they had WW in this episode i forgot to mention

SHE WAS TAKIN NO SHIT

I liked how when Billy was like “well it wasn’t a lie I just didn’t tell you I was ten” she was like “A LIE OF OMISSION IS STILL A LIE SORRY” because yay in character goddess of truth y’all.

and when Batman was like “well i knew he was ten i was fine with it” and she was like “YEAH THAT’S NOT SURPRISING TO ANYONE AT ALL YOU INDUCTED A NINE YEAR OLD INTO CRIME FIGHTING” I laughed so hard. SPEAKING THE TRUTH.

Starting Feminist Friday with my favourite Wonder Woman scene ever. This, I feel, epitomises what I adore about this character: she will fight, and she will win, but she knows that victory through strength of arms isn’t the important part. And she can see past the blind rage to the man beneath, and she has the courage to still offer him her hand.

This is one of the three or four favorite sequences I ever wrote on Wonder Woman, and I think a big part of why I find it moving is that it would never work with almost any other superhero. I can’t quite make Batman or Superman or Iron Man fit this moment. It is, simply, a Wonder Woman moment.

And that’s what I loved about it, it came to me while I was falling asleep one night and I jumped up to write the issue around it, because it says specifically, “there are many kinds of strength. You can use your weapon and break a mountain in half, but my extended hand is stronger.”

Damn, Wonder Woman is awesome.

I laughed so hard at this

it’s the way he delivers that last line

though i think it applies more to Wonder Woman

i mean everyone’s heard of Lex Luthor, Clark

because you let him be elected for prez

and he owns most of your city

somehow that happened.

Barbara Gordon Will Call You Out On Your Sexist Crap

In today’s Young Justice Batgirl has some thoughts about Nightwing having to explain why all female team is being deployed.

Weekend Read: Comic book writer and novelist Greg Rucka (Stumptown, Queen and Country) answers a frequently asked question in an incisive essay for io9 titled “Why I Write ‘Strong Female Characters’”.

The entire piece is well worth a read, but here’s the key passage:

Writers don’t write Men or Women or Dogs or Salmon. Writers write characters, and at our best, if we do it well and with care and with thought, we invest in those characters a spark of life, a realism and nuance that makes them believable and relatable.

Rucka also questions why journalists don’t tend to ask female writers how they write “strong female characters,” and why more male writers don’t do the research about their female characters, the way they would with any other character whose experience differs from their own.
