The writer also spoke about DC’s position on the topic. “Now, for those of us who are comics-savvy, we go, ‘Well, Earth One is not the New 52 or Rebirth.’ But all the Earth One books thrive on a distillation of the fundamental truths of these characters.” “If Grant Morrison writes an Earth One book where Diana is calling Mala her lover, I don’t think one can get more definitive than that,” he said, referencing the Wonder Woman: Earth One graphic novel released in April. Rucka pointed out that the current title - which sees other Amazons gossip about Diana’s relationships at one point - isn’t even the first to confirm this on-panel. Now, are we saying Diana has been in love and had relationships with other women? As Nicola and I approach it, the answer is obviously yes.” But an Amazon doesn’t look at another Amazon and say, ‘You’re gay.’ They don’t. You’re supposed to be able - in a context where one can live happily, and part of what an individual needs for that happiness is to have a partner - to have a fulfilling, romantic and sexual relationship. “You’re supposed to be able to live happily. “It’s supposed to be paradise,” Rucka explained.
