I think that is contingent upon who's writing her.

Generally, I find her interesting but many times I feel as though there's more to the character than what is being presented.

No such thing as a boring character. Only uninspired writing.

This. Wonder Woman's also been screwed up a lot, especially in elsewhere stories and in almost every popular novel like Trinity, Red Son, Injustice, Kingdom Come where she's quite unlikable and in thrall to the Superman brand. These stories that should be used as springboards for lesser known characters, have only helped bury Wonder Woman deep under a ton of chauvinistic bullsh*t. Wonder Woman may have her own separate mythos but to all intents and purposes, she's a Superman supporting character, she's affected by badass decay, her villains are super lame and I think the world of Wonder Woman is not as quaint and good-looking as it's got the potential to be. One of the reasons Azzarello's run was so well received was because Chiang took an okay script and made a sumptuous comic book with it.

I've never been that interested in her when I read Justice League and I wasn't a fan of her first New 52 trade.

There have been points in her history were her series was very interesting, such as in the Messner-Loebs run; but, than, there has been the more recent attempts to mellow her character away from Messner-Loebs; I suppose that has now been successfully accomplished; Dr. Psycho has not appeared in her own book for some time now.

@outside_85: agreed ... The character has depth and can be presentd in fascinating ways, but clearly all writers (or fans for that matter) are created equal. Personally I think people need to look past all the feminist rhetoric that gets attached to her then they start to realize that the charcter is exciting and fu. To read.

His feats are proof enough.

@comicstooge: Oh really? Is that why he is currently bed resting from the Amazo virus while she was unaffected by it? So much for being superior. Lets not forget she is the only one that lasted more 5 seconds against Doomsday.

@zhurong: New 52 Wonder Woman isn't superior to New 52 Aquaman just because that he was affecte by the Amazo Virus, but not her. That's bad logic; that also means Batman is superior?

Aquaman has better feats in the new 52, and her highest showing is from the Justice League series. Pre-52 Wonder Woman is superior to Arthur by a good margin, but there's not proof that New 52 Diana is,

This is all coming from a huge Wonder Woman fan.

@captain_batman_ftw: It depends on what you mean by feats. Strength/Durability? Possibly but she has too many abilities now. She can absorb the energy from wars and blast him away like she did to Superman.

Why does having a better immune system make her more impressive in terms of combat?

@comicstooge: Combat? She made him bleed while he left no damage on her at all. She beat Zod and Faora at the same time with ease. Zod alone would demolish Aquaman. She also beat Mongul and another kryptonian together. Since when Arthur can match Mongul?

Eh, you're probably right.

She's a boring character regardless.

Agreed
