I came across an interesting comic today while reviewing some Wonder Woman issues.  It was issue 218 of volume 2 and is not a very old comic (just about six years old).  This issue basically serves to wrap up some storylines before pushing Wonder Woman off on the Infinite Crisis tie-in stories.  One of the stories involves Ares, recently appointed as the ruler of the underworld, who goes to Themyscira to retrieve his daughter.  This is kind of a complex story, as Ares at the time was sort of inhabiting the body of Ares Buchanan, who had a child with Donna Milton, who was the secret version of Circe (secret even to herself).  The child, Lyta, went through various years of almost being ignored until eventually Circe was trapped on Themyscira with Lyta, where the two would learn Amazon ideals.  This concept is not that foreign to the title either.  Also in volume 2, Cassie (Wonder Girl) would undergo training in order to become an Amazon (though this is not the same as she actively sought out the training.)  In the first volume, villains were often taking to Paradise Island for reprogramming as model citizens.  In contemporary Flashpoint issues, Wonder Woman is the ruler over the British Isles, where others are taken to be reprogrammed in a sort of dystopian society.   
 

I'm excited to see what the new Wonder Woman after Flashpoint is like. I'm not sure what path would be better for her stories to take though, set in Greek mythology and monsters, or a more real world setting? Maybe a bit of both.

And about the criminals being taken back to Themyscira, is it just female criminals exclusively? Or do they allow male criminals to live among them as well? The hole thing sounds out of order really, I mean do they inform the countries government that they are kidnapping one of their citizens and forcing them to undergo Amazonian reprogramming?

For me personally, it depends you know? One is dealing with real life serous and ethical questions, and like most serious and ethical subjects, I am not fond when comics lays a heavy hand into the matter with all its bluntness and often over simplicity. Then it also depends on how flawed or perfect you wish the Amazons to appeared, and whether that be ambiguously so, or more specific, and as a reader who would rather them be written with a touch of idealism I am not sure any writer could easily incorporate such issue into their culture successfully, and so ambiguously ideal it is.  
 
Then again, I also like such topics and questions and discussion and I'd think a good writer could really create a multitude of great stories paying closer attention to this idea/plot. Cool blog by the way as well. 

It's hard to imagine that DC would actually have Wonder Woman ruling a dystopian society in anything but an alternate reality or timeline.  It's interesting to see, but it definitely doesn't belong in the main DC storyline.
