Okay, So Maybe Wonder Woman Isn't The Worst Mother In The DC Universe (SPOILERS)

Published Wed, 04 Oct 2017 08:49:42 -0500

In recent weeks, Bleeding Cool has run a couple of articles about the current Justice League storyline, in which their children from the future have visited them in the present, from a world ruled by an evil superbeing known as Sovereign. And apparently it's all these superheroes fault. But especially Wonder Woman.

And Hunter Prince, the son of Wonder Woman has a lot to say about his being abandoned by Wonder Woman and being brought up by Superman and Lois Lane, alongside Jonathan Kent. Not a happy bunny.

And then ends up threatening the others that she will kill him with her sword.

So there's that. Admittedly, a lot of the kids have some issues with their parents. Such as in today's Justice League #30 by Bryan Hitch, Fernando Pasarin, Andy Owens, Mick Gray, Batt, Scott Hanna and Brad Anderson, Serenity, the child of Aquaman and Mera, who it seems did not take the death of her mother well.

I think that's called cultural appropriation, Aquaman? Anyway, with Sovereign making her way to this time and Wonder Woman being considered by the children for elimination to stop their timeline from happening, it all kicks off as everyone teams up against the Big Bad. The one who will rule a terrible world and who suffered a loss herself.

Who could it be?

Yup, Wonder Woman's own mother is the one who will bring a world to its knees when Wonder Woman died. Man, that's some legacy, to bandy around a word being used a lot today. So that's okay, Diana, you didn't destroy the world as we know it, you just abandoned your son to Superman. Sounds a little better in context. And now officially no longer the DC Universe's worst mother. Indeed, you probably only got that through clay/genetics…

Justice League #30 is published today from DC Comics.
