is wonder woman a chicken?
ok... so we all know wonder woman has an invisible jet.
and, most of us know she can fly under her own power.
so does she really have an "invisible jet"? or does she just sit like she's in a seat when she flies, and pantomime the controls?
(i know, i know, i saw the episode with the jet with other people in it... i'm just trying to point out something people might not have thought about)
perhaps she's like a chicken, unable to fly long distances?
and more importantly, will the toy manufacturers ever make an invisible jet for the JL series? (and then make a clear WW variant to pilot it?)
Comments
And if her jet is invisible, how can she operate the controls and read the instruments?
I think Hasbro should package the Wonder Woman figure in a humongous window box, with bold text reading "Wonder Woman and the Invisible Jet." Then in teeny tiny print at the bottom, "Actual jet not included." Retail $39.99.
On a related topic, why does Green Lantern Abin Sur need a spaceship to fly?

Invisible Jet = idea best left in the Golden and Silver Ages
Best thing Perez did was make her be able to fly on the winds... a gift from Hermes when she was still in utero.

Um. She was never "in utero"? She was created from clay and then given life, right?
I know the answer to the invisible jet question... I've seen "Die Another Day". A complex array of cameras and projectors projecting the image of what's above/beneath/behind the vehicle. Bond's car had the technology, all designed by John Cleese's labs.

Technically she was in utero when the Cavewoman that would one day be reborn as Hippolyta was killed.
All the Goddesses and Hermes gave Diana her powers when she was still "in utero" in the well of souls right as the sould was moved into the clay sculpture that Hippolyta created.
