Wonder Woman #41 - DC

While I was thrilled to see Wonder Woman and Power Girl beating on each other . . these women are hot, it's like watching the ultimate 'chick fight' . . my libido enjoyed that aspect, it just seemed like it took them way to long to realize that someone was manipulating them. As soon as they do . . and as soon as Wonder Woman catches a glimpse of these little boys . . it doesn't take long for her to put the pieces together and realize that these are the sons of Ares. She also realizes, through some instinct or feeling, that these children are also of Amazonian blood. So know she knows what those surprise pregnancies were all about. Of course it didn't help that Diana kept punching back. When she doesn't react to Karen . . when she acts like the 'hero', and attempts to help the innocent bystanders that their tussle may be affecting . . Power Girl starts to see her for who she is, and the smoke of the illusion begins to fade. But as soon as they start fighting again . . Karen's back at full rage. Eventually Dinah gets through to Karen enough that she can help her with the boys. First she has Karen tie her up with her own lasso. This way the boys can't get through to her because she's protected by the truth. Now she can approach them and scold them for the chaos that they're sowing. The only problem I really had was that in the end, for punishment, Diana banishes them to Themiscyra. Well that and . . she spanks them. Oookay! Not what I was expecting. I'm sure this isn't the last we've seen of these boys. I can't believe that Gail Simone would create such interesting characters, just to have them taken down so easily. It's just a matter of where? . . and when? As usual Aaron Lopresti turns some great pages of art. I especially liked the scenes of Karen and Diana going at it. I enjoy this book and look forward to it every month. Thanks, for that!
