Look at this collage!

Look at the star-studded list of artists, whose extraordinary talent brought these classic characters to life. Isn't this one of the biggest suitcases of butt-kicking in the DC Comics Universe?! While not as well known, it's as cool, diverse and big, as the costumed families of all them big man-superheroes!

Honestly, upon gathering the Wonders together for a family portrait, ..the variety of style and looks surprised me also. My goal was to show the costumed heroes, Diana could pull together, just from the WONDER WOMAN comic, alone, ..without gods or human supporting characters. For some reason, I imagined the costumed Wonder Family as a bunch of angry women in bathing suits, togas or matching Xena cosplays...a toxic sameness.

I was wrong. This is the Wonder Woman Family!

BOYS ON THE SIDE: HOW ETTA AND MALA (NOT STEVE) MAKE WONDER WOMAN WORK

By Edgar Miraculous Dyer I've think I've been rallying fans for a Wonder Woman  comic, with the friendship betwixt the Amazing Amazon, Etta and Mala, at the center of the on-going narrative, for the better of two decades. The Wonder Woman/Steve Trevor thing [Styana?]  is a perennially stagnant narrative speed-bump, that no longer drives a story, in an entertaining way. Moving the character-center of the comic to Wonder Woman's (Diana's)  friendship, with cowgirl everywoman, Etta Candy, and another recurring female character in the comic, like Amazon compatriot, Mala,  ..while unfolding a deepening, fluctuating attraction between Diana and Steve Trevor, in a recurring subplot, ..is one way to fix that. Could it help, ending Steve and Diana's low-stakes, paperless marriage, while moving Mala into a permanently Alfredish role, in Man's World; so that there's an important character in the comic, who keeps Diana's mythical background, out front and in play...

WELCOME TO WONDERTOWN: THE QUIRKY X-FILES OF 1975!

"...Stam Fine remembers the iconic 70's Wonder Woman TV show starring Lynda Carter and Lyle Waggoner. It started off set in WWII, then moved networks and the setting was updated to the late 70s (when the show was made) with the same cast..."
