yeah, of course! I honestly just really vibe with the alternate retelling of the Amazons’ origin. I will always be a sucker for the classic “they rose fully-formed out of the sea formed from all the souls of women killed by domestic violence,” but this one goes in a really creative direction where the original Amazons are created by the gods, but a large sect (including Hippolyta) are actually sex-trafficking victims who join up with the group in an effort to protect themselves and others. I love how it really doesn’t shy away from how Hippolyta herself in the beginning helps perpetrate sexist violence, and how she feels a need to atone for it afterwards. the touch of making Diana the female infanticide victim Hippolyta left to die is such a good touch, and of all her origins, I do think this one is my favorite

I honestly do feel like the main draw is the art though – the designs for all the gods are legitimately just so cool-looking, in a way where I feel like I need to just bite the bullet and get a hard copy, just because reading it on your phone really can’t do the intricacies of the panel art justice, especially for the more complex two-page stretches (of which there are so many)

I’ll say it’s definitely not my favorite ww storyline out there, just because I tend to be drawn towards more “Diana acts as an ambassador” storylines over ones that draw more from the mythological side of things, but it’s definitely one I recommend reading at least once if you get the chance, if only because it’s a fairly short read (three issues long!) and has such gorgeous character designs

Wonder Woman Historia: The Amazons - Absolute Edition by Kelly Sue DeConnick, Phil Jimenez, Gene Ha and Nicola Scott. Out in July 2026.

“From writer Kelly Sue DeConnick and artists Phil Jimenez, Gene Ha, and Nicola Scott comes an epic tale of goddesses, gods, rebellion, and retribution.

Millennia ago, the goddesses of Olympus aired their grievances about the faults of man to Zeus, king of gods. When their petitions were ignored, they gathered in secret to create the Amazons: six warrior tribes born from the souls of women who had endured violence. Under the cover of night, the Amazons successfully brought justice against those who harmed women and increased their ranks with those they rescued, leading to the creation of a seventh tribe. But with great victory also came spite from the male gods, and a war the likes of which neither heaven nor earth had seen before.

This is the story of Hippolyta, a slave who became a warrior, a warrior who became a queen, and a queen who became a mother to one of Earth’s greatest champions. Wonder Woman Historia: The Amazons: Absolute Edition presents the multiple Eisner-winning miniseries in oversize format with a collectible slipcase, a behind-the-scenes look at how this masterpiece was created, and more.”

Wonder Woman: Historia - Le Amazzoni

Benvenuti o bentornati sul nostro blog. Nello scorso articolo abbiamo continuato a parlare di animazione e in quel caso siamo passati a parlare di un film della Pixar, un film molto atipico per questo studio animato che sembrava in tutto e per tutto a un’opera della Disney. Il film in questione è Ribelle – The Brave. Merida è una principessa scozzese che desidera poter essere libera, facendo ciò…

On today’s episode, I talk to Eisner Award-winning comics writer Kelly Sue DeConnick. Born in Columbus, OH, Kelly Sue moved around a lot as a child and eventually got into comics professionally through adapting translations of manga. Since the mid-aughts, she has jumped between creator-owned work for publishers like Image such as Pretty Deadly and Bitch Planet, and work-for-hire at Marvel and DC, including a defining run on Captain Marvel. Most recently, she created FML for Dark Horse. It returns this July, and is easily one of the best comics of the last year!
