Very impressive fight from WW, though she does suffer from a poor rogue's gallery:

The art and the writing are spectacular.

Yeah, it seems Giganta is really being written up - was she always that uber?

I guess she IS amped in WW, and Godzilla is non-canon, but still....

Also, John Constantine: Hellblazer: Dead in America is such a good comic. I always liked Simon Spurrier because he wrote such a funny Dr. Nemesis but this guy writes Constantine so well.

Also, Simon Spurrier's The Sandman Universe Presents: Hellblazer 2019 single issue and John Constantine: Hellblazer #1-12 2019 series are the prelude to the Dead in America series.

It's a pitch-perfect, tragic, horrifying, dense story. It all comes together by issue #12. And it ain't even over.

If you're tired of regurgitated spandex comics schlock, read it. And even though it's very British, it is just so good.

It's easily the best fight I've read in years. Several pages are missing but I get that KMC limits how many images can be contained in a single post. It's the best mainstream comic being published IMHO.

The art and the writing are spectacular. Giganta is being amped up by Circe to the point where Circe is exhausted. Strikes me as a low feat by Circe but it easily explains why Giganta did so much damage.

It really was, I had to skip some pages because it was just so drawn out which was fun.

The art is really spectacular.

Those KO stars (final scan with Grail) were completely redundant, though.

Guess some carver decided to add them.

Glad to see Wonder Woman working Grail yet again. The same Grail that ripped through a gang of Justice League members.

JL members tried gangbanging Grail, you're saying? 😂

From 2017:

The more showings a character has, and the more they start interacting with other characters, the more their fights get diluted. Lobo is a good example, as are the Lanterns. You yourself acknowledge, in team books Lobo is less impressive. Lanterns are terrible against bricks. That's when their feats become more of a gauge, where writers don't have to dilute them. Batman and Cap are also good examples of this.

Looks like it's happening with Grail. We already saw it with Damage, it got so bad they had to retcon a second Prometheus in, etc etc

This is how Superman and Hulk should be treated by a Saiyan, but not at this level, I'm talking about your standard Super Saiyan...

The more exposure, and the more that character begins to interact with the wider community, the more feats beqqgin to matter - more so than fights. Because a new character will start to 'job' to established characters.

As a good example of this, look at Damage. When he first arrived on the scene, one could make a good case that he was high herald/trans. Then as he started to interact with the wider community, Batman, Poison Ivy and Congorilla happened.

Look at Grail. In her first appearance, she was oneshotting Shazam, breaking GLs, outspeeding and outfighting WW. Now? She's casually beaten by WW (who, it should be noted, no longer has the GoW amp she had when Grail won against her).

Even has Grail mentioned lol.
