Did anyone else think Achilles was a little "forthcoming" with Alkyone during their little beach moment?
Alkyone: There will be on physical congress
Achilles: Of course not. I would NEVER... I don't even....

Interesting...

OMG!!! I got a reply from GAIL!!! WOOOHOOO!

Thank you for writing some amazing tales of my favorite heroine. I would say, if there is any way of connecting Diana to Donna and Cassie a little more in the future.... I would be one ecstatic reader.

That would seem to depend on what stance Achilles takes in this arc. Friend or Foe....

Yeah, no point in being coy. Historically, Achilles was bi, but in this era, he's absolutely gay.

It's just part of who he is. DC has a ton of lesbians, but not that many gay heroes or even anti-heroes. He's not meant to be a token, I think he's a pretty cool character on his own and if he gets a chance to shine, I think we'll see that--up til now it's mostly been potential.

But RotO was about good intentions and how even people with good intentions can destroy worlds if they're not careful, so he's been put in a terrible position--his faith in the gods is pretty much absolute, but it puts him in direct conflict with what he believes is right, like his respect for Diana and Hippolyta. I have a lot of sympathy for a person in that position, I think we've all been there where what we believe in conflicts with who we have faith in.

I hope soon he takes off the armor and has a costume that goes with Diana, Donna and Casies...

But there really is very little even similar between Donna, Diana, and Cassandra and Artemis in the way of costumes... and Achilles is a man, so his outfit might take a very different look.

Perhaps the only thing I liked about Amazon's Attack was there seemed to be a unifying look to all of the Amazon's Armor. I do think the similarities should exist, though each should have her own distinctive parts and perhaps even unique colors for some parts of the costumes.
