Best Let-Down Ever Written


This must be a blind first date. She's recoiling at his touch and getting an "emergency phone call."

And that is the best excuse not to stay with someone I have ever heard in my life.

  1. Could you imagine setting that up beforehand?

    "Okay, after 20 minutes, signal me with some global emergency."

    "What kind of global emergency?"

    "I don't know. Starro, The Injustice Gang; whatever."

  3. Hey, if I had Aquaman sending me vibrations through his A-belt, I don't think I'd date at all...

  4. I just love the use of his full name. "I already told you I can't marry you, Steve Trevor! Now go to your room!"

    I was actually just thinking of this panel recently, and how excellent a line it really is. "I can't marry you until my services are no longer needed. So no more crime, war, or natural disasters. Also, when chickens have lips."

  5. I really like that panel. Some unintentional symbolism, probably, but I find it interesting that the distant Statue of Liberty is silhouetted beside her. Wonder Woman also carries the torch, symbol of liberty, blah blah ... I like it.
