Questions about Amazons

Some things I want to understand better about Diana & her Island.

-How do they reproduce without men? They're not all shaped from clay are they?

-What is their average powerset? If Artemis can make a good challenge for Diana, are they all powered up the same?

-Where DID that invisible jet come from?

This is research for a story I want to write.

Ask Draco or Nvr. They're the forum experts on Wondy.

Not too sure but I think the invinsible jet plane was an army craft and was used during Diana's time in the military.

How they reproduce? Test tube babies. 😛

Don't know about Wondy's Amazons, but I think I remember learning that the Amazons of myth would kill their male babies but they would keep some imprisoned to be used solely for reproduction.

Sounds like a rocking good time to me.

Well, I think those men also had both their arms and legs removed so they wouldn't be able to retaliate or something, so that had to be a buzzkill.

The average amazon is about 1- to 20 times stronger than a normal man. Queen Hippolyta for what ever reason is class 100 at least. She's picked up airplanes and hefted them like nothing. Artemis was a good challenge to Diana becuz Diana can power herself down if she wants to.

The invisible jet is a piece of advanced tech. It can actually take the shape of any form Diana chooses. And is home to all of wondy's magical artifacts. The disk has some size changing properties and can shrink everything in it when it shrinks. So Diana could keep the disk behind her belt if she chooses.

If they're real men they can take it.

😑 F*ck Me...

Haven't seen these guys on the comics page, I don't think. Maybe someday as an offhand remark Hippolyta will talk about the Man they keep in a box downstairs...

So that jet could be reshaped into something else? Hmmm...and it helps as a storage place for all her gear?

Thanks for everyone's help. I've been look at the JLAunlimited site for fanfiction, and I feel like contributing a story.

Some may frown down on it, but I'd suggest checking wikipedia:

The spirit is willing, but the flesh is spongy and bruised...

Does anyone know where Accel got his signature? Because it's funny.

I can't stand the retroactive continuity that made the Amazons into the victims of male aggression. It changes characters who were paragons of female ass-kickery and examples of how women didn't need to exist only as foils to male characters and could be heroic in their own right. It changed the reasoning for the Amazon's from beings who managed to figure out how to build a society without the need for excessive violence, but were still capable of protecting themselves, and it victimized them.

I agree with you. It's the misrepresentation of women not only within this ancient culture but today's society that has branded them as helpless victims of discrimination......

....still it's just women, everyone knows their brains are significantly smaller and inferior to their male counterparts 😛

I'm not touching that one. I want to keep the company of women around me - they have special gifts I sometimes need. 😉
