Unlimited Awesomeness

All Awesome. No Limits. That's what the sign says.

DC, you can’t make Amanda Waller thin. Nobody gives a skinny bitch and awesome nickname like “The Wall.”  fumettidccomics: danhacker: DC Went And Made Amanda Waller Skinny At the end of Suicide Squad #1 readers got their first look at the new younger, skinnier version of Amanda Waller. Suicide Squad #1 already had a fair amount of problems without this controversy. I get that DC wants some of their movie properties to align somewhat with their comic-counterparts, but why make Amanda Waller skinny and younger? As a character she worked perfectly before the reboot and represented an underrepresented group of people in comics, she wasn’t just a woman in a position of power, but a woman of stature and size too. Making Amanda Waller into a young skinny bitch to match Angela Bassett’s portrayal of her in the ‘Green Lantern’ movie is a bullshit excuse. DC is doing pretty good with their relaunch titles, but when they miss, they miss the mark really fucking hard.  I guess us loyal DC readers should be thankful that Amanda Waller is even still an African American character still. Between this and taking Barbara Gordon out of her role as Oracle, I’m really question if some of these decisions make there way to editorial or if they are just the creative team’s call. Because if that’s the case, fire the entire creative team on Suicide Squad. .
