Can't you see Manga Achilles standing in an up-shot with his Wonder Warrior cape flapping around him, his long flowing golden tresses halo-ing his head, in a non-existent indoor wind with an inexplicable lens flare just slightly behind said haloed head as he declares "We have a war to Kill"?<br />There are so many over the top drama moments like that in these last few issues that I now just blame editorial rather than the writer (doing her best) and the artist (wrong for the material).skyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17848675121972689806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392489189136721402.post-60326185217869229652009-11-29T22:23:31.597+00:002009-11-29T22:23:31.597+00:00I think the switch was odd-panel, Pirate, as so mu...I think the switch was odd-panel, Pirate, as so much of the current story is.Martin Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09574149543260175962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392489189136721402.post-49371901676160159312009-11-28T00:54:51.542+00:002009-11-28T00:54:51.542+00:00The climax of the issue confused me, as I can'...The climax of the issue confused me, as I can't tell the supporting characters apart well enough to recognize when they pulled the switch.

(see my last Wonder-blog in which I was very grumpy indeed) but I was thinking of doing something about male WW costumes, so I need to get this now. Gah! The curse of being a complete gimp!!<br /><br />Sounds a bit weird that WW doesn't do anything in this issue though. <br /><br />And Donna's got another horrific frock to add to her collection.
