As further evidence of the companies attempts to alienate old readers with the New 52, DC Comics has recently revealed that the new Wonder Woman has been retconned a father in the figure of the Greek god Zeus. Details at the Source, DC's blog, and a reaction at the New York Post.
Originating in 2010, Saving the Day: Accessing Comics in the Twenty-first Century is designed as a aid to furthering studies of the comics, comic art, and translations of comics into/from other media.
