The new comic, Amazon Attack, puts us inside the head of a sniper from DC Comics’ peacekeeper Amazon.
He’s the ultimate hero anyone would expect to see locked in mortal combat with Wonder Woman and the Amazons. However, a Peacekeeper, armed with a new anti-Amazon weapon and backed by Amanda Waller, poses a deadly threat to these legendary warriors. Banning Amazons from US soil not only worsens the situation, but also makes them vulnerable targets for the lethal precision of peacekeepers.
In the comics, Peacemaker has different goals that reflect his complex nature as a character. Originally conceived as an extreme pacifist, his main goal was to avoid war at all costs, even if that meant using violence. This paradoxical approach brought him into conflict with various opponents, including common criminals and corrupt politicians. He is also a peacemaker focused on dismantling terrorist organizations and ending international conflicts, demonstrating his commitment to peace, even if it is often morally ambiguous. His versatile nature has led him to team up with and sometimes clash with other heroes and anti-heroes of the DC Universe.
The latest law of the United States, called the “Amazon Security Act”, prohibits these fighters from entering the territory. This action occurred after Amazon Emily responded with force after being harassed. This led to the creation of the Amazon Extradition Entity (AXE); This group binds and in some cases eliminates the Amazonas. In this horror and prejudice, Wonder Woman and her sisters face dark and dangerous forces, including a peacekeeper now on a mission to destroy the Amazons.
Peacemaker and constant hunter
The Amazons, led by Diana, are in a desperate fight for their survival. Despite their combat skills and experience, the Amazons face an enemy armed with technology specifically designed to defeat them. The crucial question is whether Wonder Woman and her sisters can overcome this deadly threat. Will Peacekeeper be able to defeat these powerful warriors with his newfound firepower and Waller’s support?
In “Amazons Attack #5,” the comic series where this plot takes place, we see the Peacekeeper targeting cold and Amazon victims. The cover, by Clayton Henry, shows Christopher Smith with his telescopic sight aimed at several Amazons and his partner Mary Marvel. The tension and panic was palpable as the peacemaker prepared to fire. This twist in the story shows a darker and more dangerous side to the character, usually as a simple thug.
The future of Amazon: uncertain and dangerous
“Amazons Attack #5” is scheduled to be released on February 27, 2024, and the plot promises to be a turning point in the history of the Amazons. Writer Josie Campbell and artist Vasko Georgiev take these characters into new narrative territory, where loyalty, strategy and survival intertwine. The question that hangs over the fate of the Amazons is: Can they face and defeat a formidable enemy as peacekeepers?
The story of “Amazon Attack #5” is not just a conflict between heroes and villains; It is a fight for justice, dignity and survival. Wonder Woman and the Amazons, symbols of strength and resistance, now face a new challenge that will test their courage and principles. This chapter in the DC Comics saga promises to be exciting and action-packed, leaving fans wondering about the fate of these iconic characters.
