‘Wonder Woman’ Comics Writer Confirms Diana Has ‘Obviously’ Had Relationships With Women
Variety ^ | September 29, 2016

“Wonder Woman” just became wonderfully inclusive. In an interview with Comicosity, Wonder Woman comics writer Greg Rucka discussed the new thematic elements his comic series following the superhuman Diana, including the much talked-about sexual orientation of its titular character. When asked about the subject, Rucka confirmed that his Wonder Woman is, indeed, queer.

“When you start to think about giving the concept of Themyscira its due, the answer is, ‘How can they not all be in same-sex relationships?’ Right? It makes no logical sense otherwise,” he

Comic book characters, two queer comic book characters and it is noteworthy ....this ought to throw all the “adult children” into a real tizzy!

Comics, like movies, are done almost exclusively by anti-Christian, anti-American leftists. To leftists, everything is political, and everything must promote leftism.

As for Batman & Robin, they were actually regarded as having a homoerotic subtext (due to communism in the media) in the early 1950s, as propounded in Seduction of the Innocent by Fredric Wertham, and were the focus of the Senate hearings that resulted in the creation of Comics Code Authority, with the consequent blandness of DC superhero comic books from then until the 1960s when upstart Marvel decided enough time had passed for comics to again become innovative and daring.

Whether or not there was any truth to the charge back then - which was seen as very negative and dangerous - it is spectacularly true now, but viewed by the communist media as wonderful and beneficial.

In the 1950s, Americans by and large opposed communism; now they embrace it.

The irony is that this is one time that the secular, leftist media are not subverting and destroying an original character and concept.

William Marston was a brilliant but decadent inventor and creator. He intended Wonder Woman from the outset to be a combination of a suffragette and a centerfold.

He lived in a threesome with his wife and mistress, and fathered children by both. Those two lived together after his death.

He intentionally included dominance and submission themes in the comic, and used frequent physical bondage (exemplified by the magic lasso).

Wonder Woman is really the only Golden Age comic that really was intended to follow anything close to the modern narrative of sexual perversion.

Truth is indeed stranger than fiction.

These freaking losers working for comic books can’t come up with any new characters that anyone cares about, and definitely won’t buy if they are perverted. So they go and ruin and pervert the characters people have grown to love over the decades. Just what leftists do, tear down and parasite off of the wealth and creations of free societies until they have sucked it all dry!

So, is Louis Lane still happy with the Man of Steel ?

Comics have been going down hill, from a very low starting point, for a long, long time. Absolutely everything the "artistic" crowd comes up with starts and ends with propaganda for the far left agenda. Comics are no exception.

They should a summer full of superhero movies where all the caped crusaders act the way they’re written in the comic books these days and see how much money they make—or lose.

Really, who cares about the sexual life of comic book heroes? More important things I can think of...
