Have some Amazons.

NUBIA QUEEN OF THE AMAZONS (2022) #4 by Joëlle Jones

Y'all ever noticed that in every single continuity Nubia get associated with a different Pantheon/God? It's really weird.

Pre-Crisis:

Nubia is Diana's twin who is kidnapped by Ares/Mars and raised to fight the Amazons. Kay first off: Diana's evil Black twin? Really? Glad that pretty much immediately revealed she was only evil cause mind control and once that was broken she was one of the god guys, but why'd you do it the first place DC? Pantheon: Greco-Roman, The tendency to treat the Greek and Roman names of Gods as interchangeable is something that annoys me, since there is over lap between the two but there's more nuance than that. But that's a personal annoyance that probably isn't going to go away anytime soon, so whatever. I am curious though, why is Ares/Mars always villain? Like obviously the answer is War Bad. But mythologically Ares is Hyppolyta's father. Wouldn't that be an interesting thing for DC to canonize.

Post-Crisis:

Many centuries ago Nu'bia won a contest like Diana did and became the guardian of Doom's Doorway. She crossed over to the other side and was never seen again leaving many Amazons with the assumption she was dead. In truth she lived in Hell for centuries and even became the lover of the god, Ahura Mazda Sidenote: Why did they add an apostrophe to the middle of her name like that? Trying to make it sound more foreign or something? Religion: Zoroastrianism, is actually still an active religion. Impressive considering it's almost as old as Buddhism though the number of practitioners is significantly smaller. Honestly, points for not doing a big name mythology. Seeing as I had never even heard of this religion before I don't dare speak to the accuracy of Ahura Mazda in this comic. But still interesting someone chose this out of all the possible options

Rebirth/Infinite Frontier:

Nubia came out of the Well of Souls around the same time Diana was born. And the two were especially close because of that. Nubia was selected to to become the guardian of Doom's Doorway like her pre-crisis counterpart, but she never goes missing. Instead she eventually becomes the queen of all Amazons. After this she starts having memories of her past life before she came through the well of souls. Which is how it's revealed she used to be a Madagascar princess named, Zahavah, training to become the avatar of Skehmet. Honestly, wtf is this? Madagascar is is it's own country with it's own gods. There is absolutely no reason she would be worshiping a goddess from over 3000 miles to the north of her. This is just treating the entire continent of Africa like a monolith. And it's also annoying because there is an entire tribe of Egyptian Amazons who almost never get stories about the pantheon they are supposedly bound to.

Anyway, I know asking for consistency from DC is tall order especially with how minor of a character Nubia was until recently. I just think the constant pantheon shift is an odd detail to keep changing. Overall, it's a shame how underutilized Nubia is as a character. Especially since according to Wikipedia she's DC's first black female superhero. But how come in every major continuity they manage to make a decision that is not great? Evil Black twin is bad, but makes an unfortunate kind of sense, since it was the 70's. At least she showed some heroic traits while still mind controlled? Nu'bia is an odd little detail, but probably not that big of a deal? But damn if the Egypt/Madagascar thing does not annoy the hell out of me.

Seriously DC, why are you like this?

Queen Nubia formerly known as Zahavah Nubia: Coronation Special (2022)

Wanted » Nubia alias Zahavah

Nubia war ursprünglich die Prinzessin und Generalin eines Antiken Königreiches auf Madagascar bevor sie von ihrem Untergebenen Verraten wurde und ihr leben verlor. Wie viele andere Amazonen erwachte sie in der Quelle der Seelen auf Themyscira wo sie ein neues Leben als Amazone fand. Aus einem unerfindlichen Grund war das die letzte Geburt in der Quelle der Seelen und Nubia war somit die letzte Amazone die auf diese Weise geboren wurde. Nubia war eine mächtige Kriegerin der Amazonen und so wurde ihr die ehrenvolle Aufgabe gegeben als Wächterin des Portals zum Hades zu fungieren. Nubia gilt als eine der mächtigsten Kriegerinnen auf Themyscira und sticht nicht nur aufgrund ihrer Kämpferischen Fähigkeiten heraus, sondern auch für ihre exzellenten Führungseigenschaften und charakterlichen Stärke.

Rumors

There have been rumors circulating about a secret mission undertaken by Basha, his close disciple Sari, and several other Rovers: Alec, Rophiandis, Guy, Kellian, and Zahavah. 

Some say that Basha got his ass handed to him by some evil cleric. But you didn’t hear that from me...

Remade my charr, Zahavah. She’s now a thief and sky pirate captain! She tends to rule her crew with an iron fist, but actually cares deeply about them. She’s also an ally of Noire’s and an old friend of Celty’s.

I’m lowkey in love with her now tbh. She looks sooo much better. Plus I’m a sucker for pirates.
