Grant Morrison expresses his desire to write Wonder Woman

Scottish writer Grant Morrison has expressed his desire to write Wonder Woman.


Morrison says that he wanted to write a story for the Amazon princess and the Flash. In addition, he would also like to explore Wonder Woman's untapped sexuality.

"I think one of the things that was lost on the Wonder Woman strip early on was a kind of slightly strange sexuality that the creator, William Marston, brought to the book," said Morrison.

"So, I think over the years a lot of people have had trouble dealing with the character - you know, she's an icon, she's a representation of women, but at the same time there has been a sexuality there that most people don't want to go near, which is quite understandable.

"But because the character was so rooted in it, I think she kind of lost a little bit of her 'sauce'. There have been great versions - I'm not saying there haven't been good Wonder Womans over the years, but I think there's always that little bit of something that Marston took with him.

"So, that's my feeling on Wonder Woman: it'd be nice to restore a little bit of that without being purient or sensationalistic."

Morrison has previously spoken about his interest in exploring Wonder Woman's heritage of bondage. Bondage, was a favorite aspect of Wonder Woman's creator, William Moulton Marston.
