>Greek goddesses
>supposed to be Princesses of their kingdoms but their fates were changed
>instead were raised by witches and learned magic
>Melinoe has a ghost arm and ABSOLUTE Diana has metal one
Was this a pure coincidence because similarities are uncanny
>>
Who?
>>
>>151006088
Melinoe daughter of Hades and protagonist of Hades 2 game
>>
I don't know but I want that Poseidon trident Diana got in the most recent arc as a Nocturnal Arm.
>>
>>151006060
They're both indirectly pulling from Guts and She-Ra if you're half as schizo as I am.

>>151007291
Outside of AWW's Buster Sword, i don't really see any Berserk references.
Absolute Batman has way more
>>
>>151007540
That's why I said indirectly. Berserk and Masters of the Universe both pulled from Kirby's New Gods in different ways.

>Berserk pulls from Star Wars (and SW pulled from New Gods)
>MOTU pulls from New Gods

>>151006060
Difference is melinoe is a real greek goddess who does have actual ties with the underworld, hecate, persehpone, and a lot of stuff from the game. Also funny enough zagreus is a real god too and not an OC the games made up.

who cares

sounds like you’re bitching about video games

It's Jack Kirby all the way down

It really is. I've seen people make comparisons with Absolute Batman and Kamen Rider, and all that does is tell me how deep the fucking Kirby rabbit hole goes

>Morrison draws a clear connection between Bruce Wayne and Orion in his run of Batman
>Batman = Orion as the horned hunter and (sorta) Christ figure (born from darkness and evil, but choosing to fight for the side of good) - Cernunnos was strongly linked to Orion of Greek myth, and has strong ties to Pan, the Green Man (and Jesus by proxy)
>Darkseid describes himself as the tiger-force (see The Tyger by William Blake)
>Kamen Rider and Absolute Batman both have the main character be forcibly augmented by some nebulous evil force, and left with scars and fearsome power
>Kamen Rider pulled from The Stars My Destination (Tyger Tyger), hence why Takeshi Hongo has the "tiger scars" on his face
>like Orion and Batman (and Count Edmond Dantes, the inspiration behind Tyger Tyger), Kamen Rider is a hunter of evil getting revenge on his enemies

I wouldn't be surprised if Absolute Batman actually has Bruce die or forced to leave, and someone else then becomes Batman (at least until Bruce returns).

/co/umblr troon seething yet again about innocuous shit

>>151006060
Melinoe is way more pragmatic and focused than Wonder Woman, she's almost more masculine than Zag
>>
>>151012603
Fair, Melinoe is slightly autistic child soldier who fails to fix problems of her friends most of the time. Zagreus who was raised as a proper prince is much more well-rounded in character and actually helps his friends like reuiniting Achilles and Patroclus
>>
>>151012603
More masculine? I think she represents a primarily female character archetype. She's the dweeby class-striver and teacher's pet. She's probably never missed a day of homework. She just also happens to fight.
>>
>>151013373
I suppose, she just has an affinity for fighting and dislikes helping others
