Marvel tends to have their disposable mooks either masked to hide their humanity or just be aliens, robots, etc. who all look the same. It's the Imperial Stormtrooper logic. It's much easier to forgive death and murder when the thing they're killing is faceless.

Is it really that big a deal. While It's not how she was created WW it seems more so than any of the trinity has been shown having little problem with taking a life when necessary.

>We see Chris Pine’s character in the cockpit of an old airplane, ready to take off. We see Wonder Woman in a room fighting a group of soldiers, throwing a slow motion spin kick. She deflects a bullet off her forearms and it kills three soldiers in one shot.

Does he mean, an old airplane because it's the 1910's or an old/dilapidated airplane. I just assumed he meant off one of her bracelets but now I'm not sure it's not just off one of her forearms. Either way this guy is a shit writer.

It's io9; shit writing is a given. They used to be the only reputable Gawker media site, but then they went through a "we want to be socially impactful but are a nerd media site and lack the ability to do so in a logical fashion, so let's write up a shitload of poorly thought-out editorials about how x thing is literally rape; all of our affiliates are doing it, what could it hurt!" phase for a while.

Now they've pretty much given up on that and basically just write up literal press releases and write about how awesome they are, and also post an endless stream of nerd merchandise for you to buy if you click this article to save 20% off your next Batman mug/Star Wars plush/whatever stupid thing we're shilling at the moment.

The old writers who are still around are barely active and clearly hate themselves, and all the "new talent" that they've accumulated over the years are barely competent in the English language and have no scruples hawking merchandise for ad revenue.

In her original stories, she didn't have just a pure warrior culture. The Amazons progressed in sciences, art, and technology. Grant Morrison's Earth One is based off of that Golden Age era of the Amazons, for example.

In the original WW comics I don't think the Amazons had much influence from Greek culture. I'm pretty sure Marston just called them Amazons because they were a famous all female society.

Wonder Woman was one of the original super heroines back before third wave feminism ruined a lot of female characters and she has in most runs survived to this day as a model of an strong caring intelligent and self sustaining woman who isnt one giant fucking pandering self insert like half the other female supers out their. If there were more women like her in the world or more women who idolized her and strived towards the kind of person she is we would have a lot less SJWs in the world.

Not every hero is represented by a no-kill rule being part of their moral fiber.

Daredevil should always wrestle with no killing. Some characters sit on the "wrestle with temptation to do it." part of the dramatic scale. Others DO kill, and it's okay. Like the Punisher, or Captain America. They're soldiers. Wonder Woman is a Amazonian warrior.

And then there are those whose character sits on a no-killing pillar. Batman and Spider-Man are those characters, most of all. Green Lantern can kill people. Aquaman can kill people. Wonder Woman can kill people. But it is always a last resort, similar to the situation Superman was in in Man of Steel. But Superman is only allowed to kill in the most dire of situations, and I'm not talking about "Zod will laser two and a half people" situations. I'm talking about fate of the universe, Darkseid/Anti-Monitor level foes. And even then, they imprisoned Superboy Prime. They didn't kill him, they imprisoned him in a crazy red-sun prison dimension.

These three (Superman, Batman and Spider-Man) in particular should not be depicted as killing, because they represent moral paragons of their respective universes. If they kill, then every other hero in their universe is even less pure than them. It degrades their entire continuity and makes the universe a nasty mess.

He even openly shot and blew up Hydra agents in Winter Soldier. Steve Roger had always killed, he just only kill when he has to. The thing with both Steve Rogers and Wonderwoman, is that both took it upon themselves to fight for ideals that needed to be defended with blood. Compare that with Batman, who is constantly worried that if he started killing Bruce wouldn't know when to stop. Bruce Wayne couldn't trust himself to kill responsibly, Batman is always afraid of becoming just another crazy super-villain in a silly outfit. The comic showed more than once, in a few alternate worlds, that Batman can go on a killing spree if he gets pushed off the deep end and no one could stop him.

Sucker Punch is NOT a good movie, but it is probably the most misunderstood film to come out of Hollywood in a long, long time.

>>81840817

>didn't seem that upset

The issue after, and the one after that, in fact the whole remainder of Rucka's run following the death of Max Lord was about dealing with the external and internal consequences of that action. She tells Bruce the decision to kill Max pained her, that she regretted the need to do so if not the act itself, because Max had proven himself an irredeemable monster. And yet, she admits to Ferdinand that she is troubled by it nonetheless, admits to Bruce she is seeking some justification, because perhaps doubt does remain in spite of certainty. She knows that her actions have consequences, and they clearly weigh heavy on her, heavy enough to submit herself to judgment in court. And in the end she all but breaks down because she fears that in killing Max she ruined everything, destroyed everything she spent her life working toward, failed her people, her mission, and yes even failed Max.

Killing Max was supposed to be a big deal for Wonder Woman, and it is but for the wrong reasons because people just use it to cite her being "the one who kills."

All this. It was a huge deal but people post it all the time saying "she kills all the time"

Which is odd because it's the only occasion that is repeatedly posted aside from Elseworlds or her killing monsters

I seem to recall her killing some japanese soldiers or at least letting them die in Marston's early stories though. But it's the only time I remember (if I'm not entirely wrong)

Wonder Woman kills when there's no option or it's urgently necessary.

Is killing 3 regular soldiers (minimum) while she can just knock them out necessary?

But maybe the soldiers were simply wounded and the guy who wrote this is just stupid.

Wonder Woman can kill but it should be incredibly sparingly as her biggest character trait is she respects all life. It should be a very big deal, and not casual in nature like this. For example when she killed Maxwell Lord it was a huge deal for her character and affected her for a long time.

I agree Ultraman isn't a fair representation because he resides in a universe where all heroes are villians.

Superman once killed a totally powerless Zod and Co. just because he was worried they would find a way to get their powers back.

Supes doesn't like killing, but he is capable.

I really wish MoS Supes showed more remorse for breaking Zod's neck and have been far less threatening in BvS. Supes talking about breaking people in pieces and talking about how he was granting mercy was so fucking stupid.
>>
>>81843745
It's almost like context of mortality matters.
>>
>>81844021
My problem with Superman killing Zod at the end and then screaming with remorse felt off place. The movie doesn't lead us to believe he would feel remorse. On the contrary, it makes us thinl why he didn't do it before.

The issue is Snyder pushed the Jesus comparison too far. He went so far that the original goal of showing Clark as a "Super-MAN" in the MoS trailer, got buried by the need to portray him as "Super-GOD". Superman didn't die in BvS because he is one of us; he died because he is superior to us and we are all maggots. "Granting Mercy" is basically god-talk, not the talk of an Earthling.
>>
>>81833271
wonder woman isn't a super hero, she's a princess. princes and princesses are allow to kill.
>>
I don't mind if Wonder Woman kills. She has a sword, she's going to use it. You don't just carry that round for show. Same goes for Aquaman and his Trident.

In Superman's case it was pretty much the only method he could use given the situation. He was going against a pre-programmed soldier with his own power level but with actual combat prowess and genocidal intent. There really was no way that was going to end well. I will say given how strong Clark is, he really should have a better grasp on some situations. He crashed two ordinary humans through buildings and walls in the same movie. The scene with the African warlord was especially hard to watch without laughing a little. It was ridiculous.

Batman feels a little weird, though. I'm sure it was a phase, but he caused a lot of damage besides the scene where he saves Ma Kent.
It leaves a bit of a bad taste in my mouth but we'll see how he sizes up in the next couple of movies.

Sure if this is your only reference then you're right but I would argue what constitutes as "always" would be her comic series where the most and best stories are told that go the most in depth to her character and this has not always been the case. If that movie is all you know of Wonder Woman and is your prime example that's just silly and I think you're totally wrong and misinformed.

She isn't a female Superman, thats just what you got out of what people posted probably without reading any material yourself. People call the Perez run definitive and Superman is in it a bit and influences Wonder Woman's character, there are clear differences in every aspect about them even if their core ideals are the same and there's nothing wrong with them sharing ideals just like Superman and Captain Marvel do.
>>
>>81846116
What are the ideological differences between Perez's Wonder Woman and Superman exactly? They may have different backgrounds, but they are almost exactly the same person. That image you posted doesn't say any anything.
>>
>>81845580

Diana regretted the necessity of the act, not the act itself. Max was bound by the lasso to tell the truth; she asked him point blank how to stop him and Max essentially said "you'll have to kill me to stop me." At that point she had no choice but to do it, by his own words. Yet Diana regretted that it had come to that, that the situation had deteriorated to such an extent that taking a life was the only solution available to her by Max's admission.

Wonder Woman is all about changing hearts and minds, and Max was beyond her reach and influence; that's a failure.
>>
>>81846195
I didn't claim there is ideological differences and reading my own post back to myself I flat out say the fact that there isn't and that isn't a problem. They are different people who have the same ideals, as I said at least twice, just like Power Girl has the same ideology as Superman but is a different person who does different things Wonder Woman is also a different person who does different things.
if you read an issue of Wonder Woman and an issue of Superman they are not going on the same adventures. If they swapped places they might do the similar things but thats not an inherently bad thing because there's no reason they have to be wildly different in ideology other than your own standards that everyone needs to be extremely distinct. She isn't Superman, she is a different character who agrees with him, their mannerisms, dialect, and vocabulary is different.

I dont know what you want exactly, no one is saying "I want Wonder Woman to be female Superman" thats what you're getting based on what you already believe. The core of her character was initially bondage and loving submission too, something separate from Superman although if you explain Superman's character that doesn't mean most of those things wont apply to Wonder Woman.
>>
>>81845932
>>81846327
I see
>>
>>81846359
Their personalities are also much too similar. I enjoy the contrasts between batman and superman because they're two very different characters, who behave very differently in situations, but with Supes and wondy they might as well be the same character.This is why I enjoy a radical and aggressive wonder woman, because she offers something new is actually distinguishable from other super heroes. I think most superheroes fundamentally believe in similar things as superman, but have other gimmicks to make them interesting.
>>
>>81846596
Ideally her distinguishing feature should be her compassion, and in some Justice League comics its like that like Morrison's run, but I respect where you're coming from. I just disagree on the basis that I value her solo appearances more than team ones.

But Faora actually was written to have a character, even if it is just liking to fight, loving Krypton and being honorable.

BvS Wonder Woman did not have any character building scenes. She was just there as a token strong woman figure. And even that was undermined by how they chose to show her action scenes. Jungle beat rock music. Pouty look. Then attack. Sexy pose. Pouty look.
>>
>>81833757
Power level. Superman is so powerful he doesnt have to kill people. When that African guy had a gun to Lois's head Superman COULD have grabbed the gun with his super speed and had a great 'looking for this?' line. At the least he could have just put his hand in front of the barrel. Instead he murders him through these buildings. Totally unnecessary given his powers.
Wonder Woman is similarly strong, fast and somewhat indestructible. She should be punching these mooks down or something. There's no reason for her to kill. Similarly Batman has trained himself to such ninja perfection entirely because he needs to be good enough to fight criminals without just capping their ass. If he doesn't mind gunning people down from his jet, then why is he even bothering with the martial arts? Why not just go full Punisher and use an assault rifle in the warehouse scene? It's sure be faster.
DC heroes are not normal people. They're paragons.
Marvel heroes aren't that powerful. They're boosted normal people and they don't have the luxury of never killing. Cap has to stop terrorists man, he can't risk himself and the world by taking it easy on them. Only Daredevil doesn't kill and it's way, way harder for him than it is for any DC character. Which is a large part of his charm really.
SpiderMan shouldn't kill people though for the same reason as DC characters. Dude is just way powerful. I have no doubt Marvel will do that right.
>>
>>81838690

That's not what that pic is about. The big wall of text scene description is what the main populace sees as a strong female character. This is what Joss Whedon does, for instance: Making a woman to be strong by giving her physical capabilities and rad action scenes.

For Wonder Woman, that would actually make sense, because she IS an action hero. But what makes her a good stand alone character has nothing to do with that.

Most mainstream TV and movie writers do not grasp this simple storytelling concept.

Plus, Germany DID invade and occupy neutral Belgium just to get to France. I mean these days we point to all the Imperial shit the rest of the powers were doing and say they were all equally vile, but Germany WAS the invaders. Maybe if Germany hadn't done it first then the Allies would have, but they didn't and honestly they probably wouldn't have invaded neutral, fellow European countries to do so.
So they weren't Nazis but it's actually quite easy to put Germany on the wrong side of that war. Especially when they were allied with the noxious Ottoman Empire.
