Not caught up to the thread? No worries! Each of these stories, with a few exceptions, is relatively self-contained. Though obviously the more you've read, the more you'll like it. You can start with any writer you want.

I get kind of a storybook vibe from this in the same way as The True Amazon

Hey Tex.
Legend, eh? I just realized how weird it is that publishers can basically make their own official webcomics now. That is essentially what this is, and I don't know how to feel about that.
Easton Anderson
B-but the Amazons weren't immortal until AFTER the raping!
Isaiah Williams
There's a lot of advantages to the system. Webcomics are easy to keep up with because they come out every week or even multiple times a week.
Christopher Gutierrez
Eh, Golden Age Lyta was. Sorta. Silver Age certainly.

And they had ideas for other heroes

>Menalippe is one of the original leaders I find this fairly amusing, since if you'll recall, Menalippe is a bit of a dope. She can see the future, but not the fact her gods are a bunch of toxic assholes.
Ayden Long
Thank you, user. I truly believe this is the best Wonder Woman book since a while, and no doubt the best "Year One" Wondy story ever.
It's far from perfect, but it's much better than everything else, Morrison's Earth One and Rucka's Year Zero included
Liam Thompson
Here's something not in post-Crisis

Speaking of web comics. ZUDA 9 of 12 DC entered the world of webcomics with 2007's Zuda Comics, which not only saw the publisher offer all-new webcomics, but also invite submissions from new creators to join the site. Zuda lasted until 2010, when DC began to release titles digitally through comiXology and shuttered the imprint to focus on digital releases instead of webcomics. Signature Book: Jeremy Love's award-winning Bayou, a magical realist take on the myths and horrors of the American South in the 1930s.
Lasting Legacy:Bayou along with another series, High Moon, continued as digital releases for some time after the closing of Zuda, and print collections of both series remain available.
Jackson Sanchez
Vol 2 was going to follow the Batman 66'/Wonder Woman 77's cross-over where WW would meet an little Bruce and basically be his mommy through the ages. I think she'd also meet little Clark.
Christian Watson
Yeah IIRC she was the third Amazon to emerge from the lake. She's more of their religious/spiritual leader.
Nathan Wood
Jill Thompson got a few Eisner noms today:
>Best Graphic Album—New >Wonder Woman: The True Amazon by Jill Thompson (DC Comics)
>Best Painter/Multimedia Artist (interior art) >Jill Thompson, Wonder Woman: The True Amazon (DC); Beasts of Burden: What the Cat Dragged In (Dark Horse)
Nicholas Gomez
>and basically be his mommy through the ages wew
Benjamin Stewart
She definitely deserves the nom for Painter. True Amazon is gorgeous.

CMX 2 of 12 DC's attempt to get into the manga market, CMX lasted six years despite initial controversy when it was revealed that material such as Tenjho Tenge was being edited so that it would be able to marketed to a wider audience. Signature Book: Likely Tenjho Tenge, if only for the amount of attention its editing received. Alternately, Fred Gallagher's Megatokyo, a webcomic that CMX collected in print editions.
Lasting Legacy: Sadly, none of the CMX titles remain in print at DC Comics, although Viz picked up Tenjho Tenge (uncensored) and Kodanasha has Megatokyo now.
Parker Hughes
See I like that That's cute
I remember there was tiny Alfred in this so it would've been cute to see him again with tiny Bruce
William Lee
N-not like that! The writer said they'd just meet each other throughout the ages in different parts in the world and that she would be a good influence on him. She'd also help Clark not feel so different and inspire him.
Daniel Hall
FOCUS 5 of 12 One of DC's irregular attempts to provide alternatives to the traditional superhero, Focus or DC Focus, as it was alternatively called, offered stories of people with super powers that didn't involve costumes or even fighting crime. That clearly wasn't something that the readers of 2004 wanted, though. Despite four strong titles, the imprint was dead by mid-2005. Signature Book: Steve Gerber, Mary Skenes and Brian Hurtt's Hard Time, about a teen in jail as his psychic powers emerge, managed to survive the imprint and get a second series as a "DC Comics"-branded title, as well as a recent collected edition.
Lasting Legacy:Hard Time's continued status under the DC brand.
Carson Hall
I remember CMX, I even read some of Tenjo Tenge.
Unfortunately it didn't seem to have much going for it outside tits and violence.

Also not totally sure about how this works. So the original Amazons are immortal, but their babies are mortal?
Benjamin Garcia
I makes one wonder if webcomics will eventually lose their indie flare. If publishers, who have access to resources and staff, attempt to capitalize on them, there's no telling how it will change things in a currently purely creator driven medium.
And keep in mind that several creators have managed to make a solid living for themselves, so it's not like there isn't money in it. And said creators don't have the power of pop culture branding to work with.

Webcomics seem kind of like modern indie music, where you need it to be free for people to try it, and then you depend on people liking it enough to purchase the CD or the book.

Anthony Davis
No idea what made DC digital first a success maybe the price 99 cent.
Christopher Johnson
Yes
Jeremiah Diaz
Also it had their major brands on it, Legends of the Dark Knight, Adventures of Superman, Batman Beyond and Justice League Beyond, and Batman '66.
Oh, and of course INJUSTICE probably being the far and away biggest one.
Isaiah Baker
If I remember right Atomic Robo is now a webcomic. And it still releases floppies so they're just doubling down on their income.

I mean it was basically just slightly different regular DCU at this point right? Tights and flights were back.
Eli Rivera
daily reminder "Troia" in Italian means "Troy" but also "Bitch"(as insult, not female dog- especially because it literally means "sow")
Ryan Baker
I'm Italian and still didn't know that
Nathan Richardson
>Also not totally sure about how this works. So the original Amazons are immortal, but their babies are mortal? The leadership of the original amazons is immortal and baby-less. They had not-immortal fellow amazons, they got children who got children who got children, etc.

Unfortunate because Sensation Comics had some good stuff in it.

>>I makes one wonder if webcomics will eventually lose their indie flare. If publishers, who have access to resources and staff, attempt to capitalize on them, there's no telling how it will change things in a currently purely creator driven medium. Japan already does it.
Jacob Nelson
>hella Well, shit, now you got me thinking if Chloe from Life is Strange would be a Wonder Woman fan.
Not too surprising. Again, major publishers have actual resources, so they don't necessarily face the same issues as an independent creator would on a weekly basis.

Pretty much. Diana, bruce babs.
Xavier Gray
In post-Crisis, Diana has the ability to go into a trance and experience a dreamlike land where all the mythological gods and creatures live. This seems like Themyscira straight-up just IS that land.
I actually really like that.

First they blackwashed him, now he's whitewashed. They just want to offend everybody.

There's that one line from the movie trailer Sup Forums was analpained over
Grayson Richardson
Shame, I feel like with better art this would have been truly spectacular-looking. I mean, the art isn't bad, but it's more cutesy than actually great.
Kayden Turner
Little Diana is just so darn cute. CUTE!

I don't wanna watch the trailers either, but I think like the first theatrical one had Diana say something about secretaries or something that people were getting mad about. Let me see real quick
