DC Nation Podcast Week 57 (Standard) "You're a Wonder, Wonder Woman!"

from Across the Airwaves Podcast (Standard MP3) · host Dan Schmidt & Nico Reifsteck

Hey DC Nationites, did you happen to catch the movie with Gerard Butler that came out in the spring called Olympus Has Fallen? Well, in terms of the Smallville universe Olympus is rising as Clark and Lois visit Washington DC where they meet the first superheroine in her white tights, fighting for our rights and the old red, white and blue, Wonder Woman! Wait a minute, that's not right. It should be satin tights but that's not what the artwork shows, as Diana has got her bracelets but she does her heroing in a white jumpsuit instead of the traditional Wonder Woman costume but some future cover artwork showed that it's coming  but at this part of the story, the Amazon Princess isn't quite the full-fledged Wonder Woman just yet as we think she's in The Blur stage in achieving her destiny. Anyway, with this episode's review of Smallville Season 11 Digital Issues #56–58: Olympus Chapters 1–3 otherwise known as Smallville Season 11 Print Issue #16 we talk about the decisions Bryan made to give Wonder Woman a Smallville twist comparing it to our frustration over Superman and Wonder Woman having a romance in The New 52. However, don't think that's all we talked about as we  formed theories on how many of Bryan's ideas behind the Smallville version  of Wonder Woman could be used in a live-action film. We also discussed how seeing Martha Kent again was able to recapture the sense of nostalgia for previous seasons that made the Season 9 episode Hostage so successful and how the mentioning of Connor Kent a.k.a. Superboy going to a school in San Francisco for superpowered teens makes us want to see a side story featuring the Smallville version of the Teen Titans with Cyborg as their teacher.
