@cloudzackvincent:  Only 23 years?....Is that her actual age, or just what she appears to be? What about Pre-52, how old was she then?

She was 1000 years old or I think 10000.

read carefully... Apollo didn't ask her "how old do u appear to be?" he specifically asks "How long have u been alive?" so i gather she really is 23 years old.

but i m not sure about pre 52

Batman has to think of retiring soon.

Yep. Just retreat to some island in the pacific with Catwoman on his right hand, Talia on his left, Damien minding his own got-dang business in Gotham city. I mean really. Every time Batman bends an elbow, he can hear some ligaments cracking. He should just quit while he's ahead in the game.

But he won't. =(

I still marvel at the fact that Cyborg is their age-mate. That is cool in my opinion.

I think all of the Pre-52 Justice Leaguers were in their 30s but Superman and Wonder Women spent 1000 years together in some other dimension.

lol

Cyborg being 22 isn't a stretch for me. He was probably a little older just before Flashpoint. It is hard to see the others as young though. They've been around forever.

For the New-52 I think her solo comic is supposed to take place before the Justice League started. She is 23 in her solo but she would be older in the Justice League. And by the way there's no way Cyborg is 22. He was likely 17 when the team first formed and if 2 years have passed that would make him 19 or 20 at the most.

If we are talking pre-52 then she is thousands of years old but looks like she's 28. I'm pretty sure I read the 28 thing somewhere but I don't have a scan.

Well, according to the most canonical of all Wonder Woman incarnations - the TV show - she was old enough to know Plato personally. So that would make her thousands of years old. But, yeah, in the New 52 she's 23.

Another related question would be, do the Amazons age at all? Hypolitta usually appears a bit older than Diana, so do the Amazons just age much, much more slowly than regular people, or was she that age when she reached Themyscira, and thus has remained frozen there. We know Wonder Woman started as a baby, so do Amazons just grow into adulthood at normal rates, then stop aging? Or did it take her hundred of years to reach maturity?

@dmessmer: As far as I know Hippolya is immortal(she and the amazons were featured in Demon Knights), so I guess the other amazons are as well. I want to know why the Amazons need to repopulate 3x a century. Maybe they are the guardians to Tartarus and 3x times a year some demons try to escape ensuing a war on Paradise Island.

@knightfall225: Eh, I think that's a little too old. I'd say he's roughly in his mid-to-late twenties similar to Clark. After all, as Zero Year displayed (which takes place five or six years from the present day), he was training with several different people at different stages and one point it mentioned him being eighteen and that took place like a year or two prior to Zero Year.

I think that New 52 Wonder Woman is older than 23 years:

No Caption Provided

In the start of this comic page, Queen Hippolyta says that amazons needs to give a present, but if they don't have nothing (fail their 'test'), her passing of their year will not be acknowledged. We don't know if Diana have failed various of her 'tests', and her another years weren't acknowledged. Maybe she has more than 23, 66 or 100 years!!, but her appearance is more like a 29 years old woman for me, and that's why i am uncomfortable with her new age.

She's as old as the writers want her to be. She's 23 now and she'll be another age as soon as someone else with the authority decides to change it. Questions like this don't need to be asked.

I don't know how old she was BEFORE it, but she was first introduced as fighting during WW2. Figuring that she was at least twenty at the time Steve Trevor crash landed on Paradise Island and she went to "Man's World" and fought in WW2 she'd be 90+ by her original story line. It seems with the New 52 retcon, she's at least 23

It is a good point, the 23 years could technically be her officially recognized age amongst Amazons. But if that is the case I dont believe it would make her that much older unless we really want to think Diana failed time and again at these 'coming of age' trials. Also, it may have to be assumed that the Amazons stop with these trials when they reach a certain age, otherwise Diana may well be stuck at 23 for as long as she doesn't take time out from superheroing to complete one of these questes.

I don't know how old she was BEFORE it, but she was first introduced as fighting during WW2.

The first part is true enough, and because we dont know when Aphrodite brought her to life, we can never be quite sure how old she was, only that she was younger than most Amazons.

Post-Crisis it gets even worse because we can't tie her to a specific historic event, and the Wonder Woman reported in WWII turned out to be a timetravelling Hippolyta.

Wow, I'd never even heard of the time travelling Hippolyta thing.

Ah. Byrne was my hero growing up, but he's also a great example of when a great example of when heroes need to retire. EDIT: Kind of like George Perez and George Lucas also (sort of) Steven Speilburg (aliens? in an Indian Jones movie??)

What are you even talking about, retard? How am I a halfwit for pointing out the obvious fact that a fictional character is essentially ageless? Or don't you understand that?

@mollydanger2210: Fictional characters aren't ageless, otherwise we wouldn't assign them so. Also what's with the childish insults. Don't need to be an angsty brat about stuff. I know you get beat up on the playground, but dang.

Yeah because someone who fought in World War 2 would be 23 years old *eye roll* Then again this is the comic world so anything is possible I guess
