We have?
Perhaps because I'm actually not doing this, but just approaching the Finches on Wonder Woman with an open mind and no previous bias. No one's knocking what Azzarello did, but as you said in an earlier post, it wasn't everyone's cup of tea.
Why? The writer has only one writing credit to her name and almost little in the way of writing experience since she is actually Finch's business manager. I find it strange you are calling me out for bias when much of this isn't my opinion, but established facts that you are ignoring and then have the gall for calling me out for having "bias". I hadn't realized trying to look at someone's previous work record suddenly made me biased against them.
The mythology really isn't an essential part of her book, it's part of her background, but it isn't something her whole book solely depends on.
Nah, there are many things that Wonder Woman is. First and foremost, she is a superhero in our modern times though.
Um, she was exactly what I expected in the many years I read the book earlier, so that's an incorrect assumption.
And?
So that's the only book ever to have creative turnovers? There are some books that have creative teams that only last 6 to 12 issues these days.
Delays due to either artists and writers falling behind do happen, even for solicited books.
Why not? I have no reason to think it'll be automatically bad.
You really haven't presented any "facts," just your own opinion on things. So, yeah, it's accurate to call it your bias. To be fair, though, it's also accurate to say I'm biased towards a more DCU-involved Wonder Woman book.
A bias is when you have a pre-established like or dislike about something or someone, based on your own views and values. You have a negative view of the new creative team based on how you view their previous work (or lack of it). I don't have that here as I don't know the writer or the editors from Adam and don't know how they will ultimately be on Wonder Woman, although I'm not disliking what I see so far. That could change in time, sure, but that's not the case presently.
I forgot to post this yesterday. There have been rumours of "changes" of some kind coming post-Convergence and teases that things won't be the same after the move is completed in June. I am thinking that we will get "Darkseid War" sometime in late June or July...but there are other things planned. This is among them. Allegedly of course

if only.Back to Pre-Flashpoint?
And absolute wrong. This may have been true for the Silver Age, but post-Perez (and even Post-Flashpoint) this opinion has been completely invalidated. You should at least imo try and engage with the current material before trotting out some misplaced retro-nostalgia.
Just seems to me that you have been reading reprints and haven't been engaging in the stories if you think Wonder Woman is a superhero first. It's an absolutely bizarre opinion.
4 writers in two years for this type of ongoing is considered a very high rate. Almost all of the time that means there is something wrong going on behind the scenes.
None of which justified the editor lying about it and throwing the writer under the bus to cover for Finch who has a reputation for not meeting deadlines.
But I don't. I don't even know the guy, I'm just pointing out that he is a bad editor, which we have seen time and time again. I'm certainly making a value judgement against his work, but that hardly constitutes bias. You just seem eager to pull me down to your level, which I do perceive as certainly over favoring a creative team that just doesn't have the experience to deliver for the book and favor an outdated stylistic interpretation of the character which you seem to favor.
Nope, I'm completely right. As I said, it's an aspect of her book like Krypton is to Superman, but it isn't what she is all about
Nope, it's absolutely right. To claim otherwise is simply denial or just focusing on a small part of her.
Because you're mistaken of all this.
Or just not having found the right team for the book. It happens.
That goes right back to what I said above about delays. Issues--if not out right falling outs--between editors, writers, and artists also do happen.
Sure, you do. If you didn't, you wouldn't be trying so hard to convince me that the new team was bad. In fact, you wouldn't have responded to my initial post at all if you didn't.
But it does.
That's simply false and more than a little of you crying victim after starting this.
Says you. Being that you're speaking for yourself here, your personal take on the new creative team doesn't hold weight with me.
That's what opinions are. Different views on the same subject. Not every fan likes the same things and that's true with any intellectual property. Not every fan liked the previous run of Wonder Woman just as there were those that didn't like the run before that.
When it comes to there having been some behind-the-scenes issues and squabbles between earlier creative teams, perhaps, but other stuff is really just his opinion. And stuff he said about me and how I think is totally false.
What you said is completely irrelevant. Regardless of Krypton, the science fiction based stories are his bread and butter. Superman Unchained, the Morrison Action Comics, the Pak Action Comics, Lobdell's Superman, Johns' Action Comics and Superman, Cornell's Action Comics or Roberson's Superman . These are just a few examples they don't have to revolve around Krypton, but they are grounded in a science fiction based worldview. The same with Wonder Woman except with fantasy/mythology. Azzarello, Rucka, Perez, Simone, Jimenez even Ross they all mine mythology and fantasy
So I guess you missed the last thirty years of WW comics.
So delays justify throwing your writer under the bus to justify why your artist can't meet deadlines. I really wouldn't want to work for you if you want to champion such a dishonest set of ethics.
Actually, it very much is relevant, despite how much you may think otherwise. It's just one aspect of her, not the totality of her.
Funny, I was thinking the same thing about you.So I guess you missed the last thirty years of WW comics.
If it's any consolation, I wouldn't hire you anyway because of your false comments about me. But I see conflicts--even ugly ones--between creative teams as things that do unfortunately happen from time to time. As in real life, not everyone sees eye-to-eye on things and not everyone gets treated fairly. I think what's more important is what happens next on a particular book, even though it will guarantee not to please everyone no matter what.
