Here we go with another #Tied_Up_Tuesday! Now, this is a very specific Tuesday! The focus this time around is going to be the Golden Age Wonder Woman and her shenanigans with bondage. So thanks to Comic Captures, I ran across Comic Calcavade #13. It is very interesting.
It's a very simple event. Wonder Woman got lassoed with her Magic Lasso, gagged, hoisted over the bad guys' shoulders, and taken captive. The baddies, of course, are scheming.
It may come as a surprise but I don't see as much bound and gagged. Now I'm not going to claim that I have seen EVERY DiD moment Diana had during the Golden Age--she had SO MUCH that I know she's at least gagged five times that I saw. But given that she was tied up quite often back then, five times is a very small gagged Wondy sighting.
Yeah, that was a thing back then too! And, once more, Wonder Woman is too lazy to even "mmpph" and struggle. But look at that expression!
And the trope of seeing the danger unfold as she is helpless is a Damsel Trope I can't help but eat up whenever I see it! The gag helps a lot too.
Oh, look! She FINALLY gag-talks! Oddly enough, this was a VERY small scene but given that it's one of the rare times I managed to 'see' the complete and the fact that Diana's gagged, it's a good little piece to look at.
Well, that's about it for this week. Empowered closing everything off! And to the 'Modern Climate', the #DiD-ness of the Golden Age is canonical even if it's in an alternate universe. If I find more 'complete' screencaps of Golden Age Wonder Woman... or any DiD scene that isn't shared as often, I'll put it here for #TuT! With that said, I'm out!
Until Next Time!
