Weekly Wonder Woman: Man of Steel #1, Doomsday Clock #5, Man of Steel #1, Doomsday Clock #5 and Justice League: No Justice #4

Justice

Every week (or fortnight), Weekly Wonder Woman keeps you up to date on everything involving DC Comics’ premier superheroine

It’s been another slow news week in the realm of things wondrous, so let’s head straight into the comics. Except… it’s been a bit slow there, too.

She gets a mention in Man of Steel #1, where it’s revealed she might not be as tall as you think she is.

Taller Than Wonder Woman

Meanwhile, just in case you were wondering what’s happened to Diana in Doomsday Clock, it seems she’s disappeared, as she’s not listed in the guide to superheroes around the world at the back of issue #5. However, Wonder-Woman, her Chinese counterpart, does get a mention.

World-Wide Superheroes

Hmm. Is this an elseworld? It’s all starting to feel like Geoff Johns is trying to do an Alan Moore – use Watchmen to comment on superheroes without using the real versions. A DC Universe without Diana? I don’t think so.

Lastly, Justice League: No Justice is winding up at last with issue #4, in typical nonsensical fashion, with Diana having to fashion a Wonderseed or something.

However, from tiny acorns, etc, etc, as Diana’s off to head up Justice League: Dark, as she feels like she might have some magical qualities hitherto unexplored.

Justice League Dark

Gosh. Some new developments and possibly new powers for Diana. That would be nice…
