Dumb arc but gotta love that Morphing Disk jet.

Also I totally miss the old Metropolis Science Police stuff with the robot suits.
Kevin Gonzalez
Agreed
Ayden Nguyen
lol
Ian Bailey
Yeah, that was a neat idea, I'm surprised they haven't brought it back
Lincoln Sanchez
The worst part is they don't even try to explain this with hypnotism or magic or anything.
Literally just Diana overcome by animal magnetism.

Stargate. Always Stargate.
Unless it's specifically Universe, that can stay in the trash were it belongs.
Joseph Rogers
To be fair, who could ever resist that haircut?
Kayden Reyes
Ah yes, the Ancient Furgyptians, who could ever forget them
Landon Reed
And none of these brainiacs could figure that out huh
Logan Sullivan
I love the Science Police. They're police. For science.
John Byrne is a creepy idiot. News at 11.
At least Levitz had the decency to err on the whole Dream Girl/Atmos thing as hypnotism. Doesn't stop it from being gross, but still.
Chase Miller
Why is it always Egyptians and alien shit
Next you'll be telling me there's aliens in AC Origins.
Brody Rodriguez
Oh god, it's the Capcom marketing department at it again!!

The ancient Egyptians were super into animal heads, yo. Damn near every important god had one, or an alternate interpretation of them had one.
I used to be really in to Egyptian mythology, and that shit is proper insane. Ever heard of the story of how Osiris's dick got eaten by a fish?
Cooper Jenkins

Gavin Johnson
Oh, I know that, it's just that sarcophaguses (sarcophagi?) featured regular humans in them, since, you know, regular humans were "buried" in them, not animal-god people.

The whole "aliens built the pyramids" thing has been around a long ass time, so that's probably why.
Ah. Yeah, that makes no sense. Maybe these people were just really pretentious.
Though pretentious is probably the wrong word. The Egyptian pantheon was just as much a bunch of inbred idiots as any other.
Daniel Bennett
TBF this story is based on an old Hawkman story.
I don't know WHY, but it is.

Luke Lopez
Wait, for real? That's really weird.
Juan Turner

Hudson James
Yep, Brave and the Bold #44, The Men Who Moved the World. It's why Byrne thanks Gardner Fox and Joe Kubert in the credits here
Connor Johnson
He's such an alpha. Almost as alpha as John Byrne. John Byrne is the greatest alpha in comics, the greatest artist and the finest writer. I am not a John Byrne, who is not a pedophile. It is very bad how pediphilia is often confused with ephebophilia. Again, I am not the greatest alpha in comics, John Byrne, who would never deign to post on a forum that is not fairly and well moderated like the forum of dominant alpha artist and writer, John Byrne.

Anthony Myers
Hi, Mr. Enryb, great post.
Cameron Sanders
Man, that's so odd.
Of course you're not John Byrne. He has his very own forum where people can jerk him off all day
Ethan Nguyen
Byrne is starting to remind me waaaay too much of Ken Penders.

That's so stupid how Cave's telling HIMSELF what just happened to him.
Parker Hughes
My heart belongs to a different tittybird
Aiden Torres
So they're like an army of blind Bendises
Levi Turner
Do I want to know?
Oliver Ward
And there we go. Gateway City: America's First CGI City!
It's one of the odd things about this run. Sometimes you get usual Byrne writing, sometimes you get this weird, stilted, early Silver Age writing that almost seems like it's supposed to be for kids.
Certain issues just feel totally phoned in, the one that most easily comes to mind being the one where Diana fights the giant Greek statue earlier.
After this issue things suddenly take a turn for the better.
Lucas Miller

Angel Richardson

Jaxson Smith
Yeah, and this was the mid 90's, so there was really no excuse for this kind of writing unless you were intentionally making a throwback to older comics, which Byrne clearly isn't doing.
Landon Bennett
It's worth noting that Byrne already did the "ancient aliens" thing in his Superman run. It even had a (giant) mummy so even the whole Egyptian shit was there.
Joseph Rogers

Juan Howard
I've always felt more could be done with the Roman gods. Perhaps a War of the Gods remake?

Mason Thompson
Ughhhh
Hudson Davis
Lol, Ubis looks like that character from the bkub comics
Aaron Long
Well, that's certainly one unique look.
Caleb Thompson
Is that the Deep Crow?
Mason Ramirez
This had me nearly in tears from laughter the first time I read it. Fucking Diana friendzoning some guy.
Byrne is a genius.
Samuel Murphy
UGHHHHH
Jace Moore
Dat Elesh Norn meets the Shrieker aesthetic. Not gonna pretend I'm not a weirdo.

Jaxson Taylor
What an asshole. Diane apologizing here is such bullshit.
Bentley Gonzalez
Next time: an actual Wonder Woman villain?! What is the world coming to
See y'all then
Camden Murphy
Next is probably the highlight of the entire run. Great issue.
Thanks, OP.
Parker Lee
Thank you, anonymous coward on a disgusting board full of anonymous cowards who besmirch the good name of John Byrne, who is not a pedophile. Thank you for reminding me of one thing about a John Byrne. I hear a John Byrne has an eight pack. Impressive, huh? Comics, kids! Now get in the van! Ha ha, only kidding!
