You're saying I don't? How presumptuous.

You really think you're getting an accurate picture by asking Carver?

Anyway a bit off topic but does the lasso seem alot weaker nowadays. ****ing super girl (and superman) broke out of that shit with out too much difficulty.

Well against Superman it did work though. It was against the power of the Sirens that is was being resisted.

The Supergirl bit seemed odd indeed but wasn't Diana trying to get Kara to see the truth and not to incapacitate her? I could be remembering this incorrectly.

I'm not going to sign on to the lasso being a lot weaker until we get a story that really delves into its power and origin. There have been similar instances in the past. It depends on how Diana is using it.

I do miss the way Gail handled Diana's gear during her run though.

I guess but in the past under almost no circumstance was someone able to resist or much less break out of the rope.

Anyway T2 wins imo.....

Uhh.... There was this character named Bizzaro who broke the lasso.

Not canonically, I thought.

Are u guys gonna argue whether Trinity was canon?

Not much to argue, really.

Its canon. It tells us the first meeting between Superman, batman and wonder woman. Just like the upcoming "Batman/Superman" or Superman/Shazam:First thunder. Why is it non-canon again?

I'd be more inclined to ask why it's canon, as it's harder to prove a negative.

Just look at the solicitations.

It doesn't even had any "Elseworld" or something like that printed on cover.

That's easy, just look at the covers. Every non-canon story involving mainstream characters had Elseworld logo on it at that time.

It's not on the front because Didio didn't think it would sell as well if it did, I read.

It doesn't exactly fit well in continuity either.

I don't think Didio was in-charge back in 2003.

Well, it retcons some things like wonder woman's plane, Artemis' backstory and stuff but that doesn't mean its non-canon. Take any comic that is retroactively happening in the past and it would always contradict something. Its the first meeting between all three which at the time was un-documeneted, you can't just call it non-canon due to some minor stuff here and there. Well, WW fangirls have done that.

It always seemed retconny, but it never seemed to mesh with continuity.

That wasn't why i said it wasn't canon.

I did some checking, and I know that wagner intended for it to be in-continuity when he wrote it. So yeah, you can argue that it's canon, which I'm sure will thrill you.

It doesn't help that the book is pretty unflattering to Diana in general, though, and that it by and large doesn't seem to mesh with canon very well.

Yeah, you just implied it. Small difference.😛

Absolutely, how can anybody not enjoy bizzaro beating the shit out of wonder woman?

It was better than Mesner-Loeb though.
