@divingfalcon713: Completely agree, i think that is also a unique characteristic which makes a her really interesting and also separates her from the other members of DC Trinity. Where as Supes and Bats never even considering to kill, Wonder Woman, with her warrior background, is willing to cross that line if there no other alternative. She does everything in her power to avoid taking a life, but if it's no other way, she will take a life for the greater good. "Sacrifice"* and Maxwell Lord is the prime example, she was totally bashed from Supes and Bats for killing Lord, but she new in her heart and mind, that she saved hundreds maybe thusends of people at the expense of one evil man, when there really was no other alternative.
Take that in perspective, how many lives would had been saved if Batman disposed of The Joker?
Don't take this the wrong way, i don't won't WW going around killing people as some kind of anti-hero, but i really find it makes her far more interesting as a character that her warrior background makes her at least considering all options. That's what makes her on of my personal favorite heroes.
* = I know the "Sacrifice" storyline has divided the fans, many hating WW crossing the "no kill" code for heroes, but personally i think it was a brilliant way of evolving her as a character. It's only a shame that the writer Gred Rucka was not given the time to fully explore the ramification of her actions in the afterwake of Infinite Crisis.
