A long awaited 2 issue crossover arc of Batbrick and Wonder Woman.

And it’s first part feels quite inconciquential. It is nothing but a setup for an interesting part, the part that DC by their tradition given out to Batman…

>:(

Never stand behind a centaur!

As you could’ve guessed i don’t realy like crossovers with Batman, i think that Bats is the parasite on any of this crossovers, he always becomes the center of attention, even if he dies he still lives. THAT HAPPENED TWICE!!

ABSOLUTE ZATANNA IS HERE!!! For whole 3 pages

AND NOW SHE IS A BAD GIRL!!! In a Suicide Squad and her own book was announced. So most likely she is not really evil

AND SHE’S HOT! Which is true

Honestly out of the annual issue i expected more. Of course it was good to see how much compassion Diana is holding and how she was impacted by her temporary transformation into Medusa. And it was good to see her try to fix real Medusa’s curse after feeling how torturous this form was. But it could’ve been done better

In this episode of “Life and torture of Bruce Wayne” we finally have long awaited debut of Poison Ivy. And damn she is fabulous, especially in her true form

This issue has three plots run simultaneously. First is Bruce’s daily life going to hell. Second is Ivy’s origin full of delightful deranged philosophy. And third happens in current time with Ivy taking over the center of Gotham and corrupting it with her idea of “the Seventh Kingdom of Life”

Tropelet Annataz ot ytefas.

As i predicted Absolute Zathana is not evil. She was mindcontrolled by a starfish living in her throat. On literally third page she had coughed it out and ran away

Also this issue had a fight between two giant women :)

Proper status quo Absoulute Superman was pretty good. This small arc continues breadcrumb trail from the Absolute Evil. Hawkman sucks in the best way possible. Clarks daily life is fascinating and shows that realistic and gritty Superman still can and should be a kind person. Parasite given me some long needed dose of body-horror. And Absolute Lex Luthor is a kindest and chillest family guy ever. Untill Brainiac comes to his home

And this part was truly painful to watch. Especially the reveal page on which Lex just sits alone in the aftermath of the massacre that Brainiac done for some idiotic reason. The only thing the open brain accomplished by that was gaining the enemy potentially far worse than any kryptonian

What a disappointing mess. Ivy was beaten by pointing a gun at her still human heart. And Batman in the end shot her anyway because fuck her i presume. What he expected by that? Snapping last straw between her humanity and godhood? And Bruce got not one but two pep-talks with Gordon and got nothing from them

Zatanna saved Diana’s life and got a useless, almost completely unjustified beating for it. Because what would a superhero comic be without pointless fights due to misunderstandings >:(

On the other hand, it was a really cool pointless fight due to misunderstanding. Both sides were creative and fully utilized their skills. I especially liked how Zatanna(whose magic depends on language) casted a spell in actual ASL (i checked, she gestured “TSOHG”) when Diana put her in a chokehold, expecting that by depriving her of her voice, she would be deprived of her magic. It’s a small thing, but it’s cool thing. I’m sure they hung the Chechov’s gun on that.

And there’s also a whole page of dialogue about love, vulnerability, and compassion between a young Diana and the winner of the 1184 BC Sexy Halloween Costume Contest (see Absolute Wonder Woman #16)

So, it wasn’t a bad idea to miss a month to read the latest issue today :)

Now we are talking. Everything finally makes sense. And the writer finally remembered that the Absolute is supposed to be more depressing. So long story short, Aphrodite accidentally gave Diana a very serious curse. Simply put, Wonder Woman miraculously makes people fall in love with her, as if she unconciously poures a diluted Love Potion into everyone’s tea. And this will likely break Diana’s impressive 19-issue long optimism marathon, because sooner or later this fact will surface, and the question arises: who’s going to be more freaked out by this fact? Diana, from the shock, or the entire planet from betrayal?

The fight with Zatanna’s dad ended rather quickly, thanks to the use of a lasso called Troika. It’s essentially the good old Lasso of Truth, but to use it, you need to get inside someone’s head.
