this is also what i am screaming re: people who think Wonder Woman -- raised on an island where no one dies, where magic AND science are beyond cutting-edge -- would grow into a boring, prudish, sword-wielding adult who doesn& #39;t know what, like, an elevator or a taco is. https://twitter.com/GhosttGray/status/1297648714220273665">https://twitter.com/GhosttGra...

Clark was raised in Kansas. Bruce was raised in basically New York. Every third word out of Wonder Woman& #39;s mouth should casually blow their fucking mind. "You grew up with WHAT? That& #39;s normal to you?"

but no. She& #39;s a secretary or Thor-with-boobs to most male writers.

I& #39;m saying too much already, but it& #39;s not only the medical and travel technologies of the Amazons that should be bizarre and advanced and what-the-fuck-that& #39;s-rad.

It& #39;s also the SOCIAL technologies. How do they tell stories? How do they communicate? How do they organize a gov?

Every third thing out of Diana& #39;s mouth -- every "oh, it& #39;s nothing" casual childhood memory -- should make the reader and the League go "what the hell, rad!"

if you can& #39;t think of a billion stories re: what her childhood must& #39;ve been like, do you wanna write hero comics?

we are literally wasting one of the most incredible engines for speculative worldbuilding in hero comics because generations of cis male writers -- Geoff Johns especially -- want to write stories where women are dumb and discover ice-cream for the first time.
