BREAKING WONDA' NEWS: DC COMICS' ASGARD JUST GOT BIGGER..IN WONDER WOMAN!

Breaking News, Kangalier!

By Mel Dyer

A major supporting character, in the WONDER WOMAN comic, ..is an Asgardian!

It gets hotter.

Wondabunga asked current Wonder Woman scribe, Micheal W. Conrad, ..on Twitter: Michael, is your Siegfried the ex-husband of a Valkyrie[?] Can you answer that, without messing up something Cloonrad is cooking?

DC Comics' Valkyries stepped in it, with Wonder Woman, when they tried to carry off her last hot piece! (H. G. Peter art)

Conrad answered:

"I can answer it and the answer is yes… but it’s complicated— there have been hundreds of years for them to figure it out."

So, ..the Immortal Amazon's new travelling companion, while a comet-strike of fresh, Scandinavian air, brought cleverly and colorfully to life, by Micheal 'Midnighter' Conrad and Becky 'Action Comics' Cloonan, ..is no stranger to the Wonderverse*. As in Germanic folklore, Cloonrad's Siegfried has survived marriage to the legendary Valkyries, perennial enemies of Wonder Woman's people, ..the Amazons, since comics' Golden Age Forties...

And it's 'complicated'. D'jou hear that?

'Complicated' certainly means DC Comics' Asgard just got significantly bigger, ..in Wonder Woman! Will the Amazing Amazon be tangling, with more DC Comics' Asgardians, Gudra or Warmaster, before the end of the run? Who knows? What will be the collateral damage...the fallout, from these complications?

I'm only happy, when it's complicated.

And I want the bloody Siegfried action figure! I'm buying a big, James Brown wig and cosplaying him, at comicon. Look alive, Kangaliers...

And thank you, Michael W. Conrad!

*Mel Dyer coined 'Wonderverse', in discussions on the DC Comics Message Boards, way back, during the Phil Jimenez run. That was a long-ass time ago, bidghes.

GREAT HERA! IS THIS THE END OF THE WORLD-BUILDING CLOONAN-CONRAD ERA...OR IS IT?!

By Mel Dyer Imagine... Etta Candy, sharp-shooting Texas rancher-girl! Colonel Steve, ex-militaire coming out of World War II! Dr. Minerva, weird, werecat lady scientist and... Siegfried the Viking, dragon-slaying hero of German myth! Now, imagine them joining William Moulton Marston's Wonder Woman ..and over three-thousand savage, half-naked AMAZONS, ..red-hot from the Amazing Amazon's wild, time-leaping, empire-toppling adventures in the Golden Age of COMICS!
