I was raised in a tiny matriarchy & so every time I encounter sexism in the wild as an adult it feels so vividly like the Wonder Woman movie trope where she leaves the isle of Themiscyra for the first time. like, what do you mean this is normal?!

Once his father passes him into the service of King Telamon, Euaristos believes his dream of family and brotherhood to be lost. At Prince Ajax's homecoming, he's proved wrong. But as Ajax pursues his destiny at Troy, can their bond survive the trauma of war?

Text states:
THE ARGONAUT'S SON -Excerpt
"I meant what I said. Earlier. I trust you." There was a strange intensity to him, almost unsettling.

“Thank you. I won't let you down. Your father wouldn't let me.”

This time it was Ajax who didn't smile. He smashed the shell against a rock, leaving a sharp, jagged edge and pressed it into his hand. The wound took a moment, then welled with blood. “Bind with me.” At my shock, his eyes narrowed, as if wary. “You are scared?”

“No!” Though I knew it to be stupid.

Dutifully, I held out my palm, gasping at the bite of the shell, the pain sharp and precise. Our hands dripped as we grasped each other's, hot blood mingling and running down wrists. It was risky, juvenile. But in that moment, it was as though everything leading to that point had been a conspiracy to have the two of us crouched and clasped in the chill gloom of the cave. We were bound forever. Brothers in blood. Nothing could part us.

secondly: batman pls!!!!

a two page spread of batman, superman, diana and her amazons, facing down darkseid's legion. batman is holding an axe because WHY NOT GIVE THE NORMAL HUMAN WITH NO POWERS AND NO GODLINESS A WEAPON THAT PUTS HIM AT THE VERY FRONT OF THE DEFENSIVE LINE?!?!?

giggles kicking my feettttt~ raising teenage girls is hard work; i love that bruce says it's "our lives" not just clark's life lolol what's also hilarious is that bruce fully recognized ain't no way two men are gonna successfully raise kara, so he gets diana and themiscyra involved lolol

batman confronting superman about his state of mind when it comes to his cousin Kara.

batman: clark, i've watched you ever since this girl came into OUR lives. you've let your guard down, exposed your secret identity— when common sense should be telling you to take this slower. how long was it before you let SUPERBOY this far into your life?

superman: superboy wasn't from krypton.

batman: and how do you know SHE is?

superman: how do you know she isn't?

Capes on the Couch is ready for 2026!

@capesonthecouch.bsky.social

Day 2 of #Capes365, and we're talking about one of the most hopeful characters in comics, Wonder Woman! Diana has gone through many changes over her 80+ year history, but one thing that has never wavered is her compassion and love for humanity. Whether she's on Themiscyra...

…but it IS the Amazonian nurturing… ALL Amazons are supposed to be like that. They are ALL products of this unique society which is based on traditionally feminine traits. Diana is like everyone else on Themiscyra in that respect. The difference, the reason she won “the contest” is because …

Si jamais vos connaissances de Wonder Woman se limitent aux films, les New52 et Injustice, alors vous devez regarder cette vidéo pour voir pourquoi les fans de la Princesse de Themiscyra ne voient aucunes des ces 3 œuvres d'un très bon œil.

On those rare days when men came to Themiscyra (to do the lawn care, read the meter, or haul away the recycling) Wonder Woman had to turn her logo upside down.

Pueeees Flashpoint no me ha gustado. Lo primero, el diseño de los personajes. Están deformes, son superfeos.
Y la historia está super mal contada. ¿Por qué están en guerra Atlantis y Themiscyra? ¿Por qué son todos tan malos?
¿Por qué no trabajan psicólogos en Gotham?
¿Por qué solo hay batallas?

Oh yea all the Absolute series are totally different from the main universe. They put a twist on every character. WW wasn’t raised on Themiscyra but instead was raised by Circe in the Wild Isle of Hell and the word Amazon is forbidden. The absolute titles are my fav right now

@kilowogcore.bsky.social

Is it an autistic thing ta' get a song stuck in yer head at inappropriate times, regardless a' yer mood? Or is that everybody?

(Art sampled from "Amazons Attack" Vol. 2 #4. Edits: Altered captions.)

In a comic panel Nubia, Queen of the Amazons, beholds Themiscyra, the home of the Amazons, on fire, its greek-styled buildings burning. Captions read, "I am in despair over the destruction that has overtaken the homes of my people, my sisters... so why can't I get the lyrics to Disco Inferno out of my head??" A caption reads "A Kilowog-core Edit"
