      Great work Sasha! Can you do videos that cover the different versions of the Amazons? The peace loving and kinky pacifists from the Golden age? Badass warriors, scholars, artists, etc with personalities and characteristics from the Post Crisis era? To the rapist and child killers in the New 52? There's so many different versions of them and the New 52 completely ruined their reputation. Incels still use that era as an excuse to hate on the Amazons. Love your videos?

    This was the period in comics where the main character got swapped out for more violent replacements.
    Batman was replaced by Azrael who had an even more extreme attitude than Bruce Wayne and wore a costume that made him look like a transforming mecha. But the Knightfall saga sold really well.
    Since it worked with Batman, they tried it again with Wonder Woman.
    Because it's not comics if they don't beat a good idea into the ground.

    Your constant upbeat view on comics and being willing to accept change from any writer if its done with care, has really been a constant bright spot in my life. Your vocal support of fanfic is what inspired me to share the double self insert fanfic i was writing to deal with my loss.

    Artemis’ introduction was the most true to Wonder Woman mythos as you could get. It had all the shock sexuality (Charles Marston would approve), fused with Greek Tragedy (Hippolyta sacrificing another for her daughter) and it’s injected the series with some electricity desperately needed after years of cookie cutter good-girl Diana.

    I'm a fan from this time. When this storyline was going on, in was generally known that John Byrne was taking over after #100, so anything that happened those 10 issues wouldn't last. Not expecting much, this run was much better than I expected! I love Mike Deodato's art, and I liked the biker shorts! I also liked how Diana was more down to earth for awhile; it was a time when the creators could be experimental, and they were! I'm a John Byrne fan, but when he took over, it felt like everything was returning to the status quo.
    As for all the cheesecake art, that was the 90's!! Not only were comic book publishers putting out swimsuit issues of their female characters, on the newsstand there were all the men's magazines like FHM, Maxim, etc., all ln competition for the same (male) audience.
    Getting back to Deodato, I'd love to see what you think of his Catwoman run!! It's disappointing how popular she was in her own book, created her own identity apart from Batman, but that seems to be long forgotten.

I remember being really mad at Hippolyta over the new contest lol. I also remember being very confused because I was a young baby gay with an affinity for redheads lol So it was like, I hate you for being mean and taking Diana's place, but you're also kind really hot. lol
    Ok, so you should totally cover Hippolyta's run as Wonder Woman, and their arch in Our Worlds at War. And just because it's one of my faves, JLA Vol 1 #90 for all the glorious Wonder Bat

    I enjoy cheesecake, I think it's a good indication of an artist's style and talent and it's just also pleasing to the eye, though I like it to feel a little more naturalistic. In a weird way Artemis' outfit being so strategically ripped is somehow _more_ revealing than actual nudity, as you could argue the latter falls within the confines of 'heroic nudity', as you see in a lot of statues and paintings (as well as characters like Dr Manhattan).
    I must say I really do like this art, though. Artemis' crazy ponytail is very larger than life and dynamic.

      Jane Foster as Thor was handled very differently than Artemis as Wonder Woman, save for the parental characterization. Odin was depicted as a complete and utter asshole, much like Hippolyta. Although, TBF, it was hardly Odin's first go-around as a completely unreasonable, horrible, abusive parent.
      Aside from that, there were many key differences. Thor had become unworthy through his own self-doubt, as opposed to anything Jane did. Jane was a long established character with a relatively rich (although often one-note) history, and she wasn't written as as a complete jerk, as opposed to Artemis.

It did feel like it lasted longerwhile it was happening but looking back it was a quick blip in WW's history. I will also always have a place in my heart for Diana's new look here, yeah it's dumb but it was also a fun era where Clark was made of electricity and Jean Paul was running around in a giant metallic batsuit. I'll always be nostalgic for the early 90's since that's when I started reading comics.

    This was really interesting. I never got familiar with Artemis, but the context makes perfect sense since early ‘90s DC was all about shaking things up, killing Superman, replacing Batman, and apparently Wonder Woman isn’t immune to shock writing trends of the time.
    After this video, seems like Artemis at this time was the Faith to Diana’s Buffy. Pretty interesting.
    As for over/underrated comic book costume designs, I prefer Wolverine’s mid-2000s yellow and blue costume over either of his classic looks. Brown costume, Tiger Stripe costume...both great, but the redesign just hits right for me.

    I love all of Diana's alternate costumes. In my ideal DC world, she could just open her closet and put on which ever iteration of her uniform that suits her mood on a given day. I really do love her original look best, though. I hope she returns to the classic outfit eventually. I love the Gal-centric take on her costume that our princess sports now, but do miss the iconic star studded trunks and the red and white striped pointed mid-calf boots. Silver age is my all time fav, when she featured an actual golden eagle on her bustier instead of the "kinda-birdish" double W she's had for the last few decades. Any time an artist does a costume design that makes it look more full and bird-like, my little heart goes pitter patter.

      Thor in the crop-top is definitely one of my "WTF?!" ones. Especially the times when it got so small he was basically just shirtless, and he had Mjolnir on a big-ass chain instead of the leather strap because...reasons? Plus, the weird headpiece thing instead of the winged helmet, that just looked like so many 90s characters (Gambit, Havok, so many Image characters, etc.) that I legit for a moment mistook him for a long-haired version of Havok that was for some reason not in an X-family comic, especially since that was one of those weird places when they also often took away his archaic dialect.
      Also, Hawkeye in the skirt...is not half so weird as Hawkeye in the lavender shirt with the neckline that plunged to his belt, and the shorts. Never actually read comics during that point in Avengers history, but man...that one was a little bit too disco-era, even compared to things like disco-collar Nightwing.

    Hi Sasha. I love when you talk about Wonder Woman and any of the characters associated with her. First, I didn't mind Artemis. It was good that the writers remind the readers that Wonder Woman is a role in the Amazon's government and not a title given to Diana like "Superman" was given to Clark/Kal-El. I didn't like the art with that particular story arch but I realize that you have to accept some over blown depictions because of the financial needs at DC; gots to make those little "hungry" boys want to buy the mag. Personally my favorite WW artists were George Perez and the Terry and Rachael Dobson. The last point that I would like to respond to is the absence of a consistent writing/art team. I think the stories from the past that were always the most successful were the ones where Diana was an agent of Athena and the Greek Gods would invade her world and interrupt her life. Sadly, I would borrow a lot of story structure from Xena, Warrior Princess with the members of the Greek Pantheon consistently like Greg Rucka's "The Hiketeia". Still like that one 17 years later.
