DescriptionTwo thoughts on this page:1. For some reason Maxima’s leg has always looked weird to me in the one panel. 2. I love Maxima’s being totally good with slavery. People often complain about alien characters having exactly the same views as Earthlings in comics, but I really love that we’ve got this gorgeous human-looking alien, part of the world’s greatest superteams, spouting off worldviews that prove she’s, well, alien. There’s a Grant Morrison JLA story that had a “Superman is not like us” moment that fell flat on its face, but this page really struck home that there are races in the DCU with views vastly different from what Earthlings would find acceptable.

She's only experienced it by contact as an upper class. She would not be so accepting if she was a slave. This was why we were all for Starfire since she was royalty, humbled by it and still was able to be a loving person when freed. We accept it in fiction to remind us what evil it is.

Maxima's home planet is all kinds of insane. If memory serves she discusses beating her personal slave, as well as being beaten herselg, like it's totally normal. Another story has her being comfortable with being stoned to death for apparently failing her queenly duties; I guess Almeracian rocks are like kryptonite to her or something. We won't even get into her mind controlling kids to use as expendable shock troops.
Now I'm picturing the Almerac of the Earth-3 universe as a place of subshine and hugs after typing all that.
