Wonder Woman officiates gay ‘marriage’ in new comic

HOLLYWOOD, CA, August 25, 2015 (LifeSiteNews) -- Comic book superhero Wonder Woman will officiate a same-sex "wedding" in an upcoming issue.

Jason Badowerhe, Wonder Woman's cartoonist, says it was his idea to make Wonder Woman, as the comic will say, "a proponent of gay marriage."

Badowerhe says DC Comics was "fantastic" over the idea. He told The Sydney Morning Herald that his editor "was like, 'Great! I love it! Let's do it!'"

In the comic, Wonder Woman solemizes two women's "marriage." "By the power vested in me," is replaced with "Bound by the lasso of truth." At the conclusion of the ceremony, when traditionally the celebrant says, "I now pronounce you husband and wife," Wonder Woman simply says, "I now pronounce you married."

An amazed Clark Kent questions Wonder Woman, who says gay "marriage" is no big deal to her, because her home island, Themyscura, is all women. "To us," she blithely explains, "it's not 'gay' marriage. It's just marriage."

The two lesbians are portrayed as heroes as well: they are volunteers helping people after Hurricane Katrina destroyed much of New Orleans.

The goal is to promote same-sex "marriage," and to portray it as normal. "Wonder Woman is such a recognized icon, she's like an international diplomat," Badowerhe said. "When she says 'This is what I do and it's no big deal to me,' she can pave the way to make [homosexual marriage] more normal for everybody."

Badowerhe explained that he is projecting for his readers "who we want to be." "Popular culture reflects who we are now, but it can reflect who we want to be," he said. "I think DC superheros are who we want to be."

Critics say Badowerhe and DC Comics are perverting the character Wonder Woman away from the character's original 1941 composition. The creator of Wonder Woman, psychologist William Moulton Marston, clearly intended Wonder Woman to be heterosexual, as she was in love with Steve Trevor. Wonder Woman even called Steve Trevor her lover.

Wonder Woman was created during World War II, and she often fought Nazis. Her depiction as a muscular heroine fighting for justice and peace has led to Wonder Woman being adopted as a feminist icon.

The issue will be online Friday, and the printed comic book will be published in November.

If they come from a place with no men, how do they maintain a population?

Technically, it is an island of amazons. Not lesbians. And the propagation of their order is explained in the original stories.

When the “Batman” TV series premiered in 1966, the character of “Aunt Harriet” was created because ABC did not want to have a show about 3 single men living together and dressing up in tights. The network insisted that they have a woman living there as well. How times have changed.

Manipulation of children should be a prosecutable offense.

You can’t escape PC-madness anymore, not even in comic books. Why does everything have to be agenda-driven?

UUU

Because the perverts want access to our children.

What boggles the mind is how after this comes out, the dark Internet is going to mass produce WW lesbian porn comics.

It will not be in good taste, have good artistry or writing.

Uuuuuughhhh..... my list of comics gets shorter and shorter....

Well I'm a gonna get here, but once I hit my teens I was down to two or three comics, Sex to Sexty, Eerie and Creepy, I know, but as I said I was a teen. Never had a real passion for the traditional comics, ever.

super hero’s used to fight evil and the show was about good v evil. Now the lunatics of the left want to have super hero’s pushing two women or men getting their sham marriage.

Sick F@@@@

Like I said, media types create their works of art primarily to promote an agenda. Entertainment is merely the vehicle used to put you into a state of suspended disbelief so that they can slip the agenda into your mind without you knowing it.

Totally agree.

Conservatives and Christians need to come out with media that is much better but opposed to all that is PC. We can do it! Lets leave them in the dust.
