The Amazon princess, blessed with god-like super abilities, Wonder Woman is one of Earth's most powerful defenders of peace, justice, and equality and a member of the Justice League. She is considered an archetype for many heroines outside of comic book. Her initial origin depicted her as a clay baby brought to life by patron goddess Aphrodite, but in recent years she has been depicted as the daughter of Zeus and Amazon queen Hippolyta.
All y'all kept complaining that Azz the Great Satan wasn't using Diana's rogues' gallery? He was trying to keep them safe. You should be thanking him on bended knee.
Heh this is just going to irk some Azzarello haters you know. But I agree, the New 52 Wonder Woman has been far more lax in how she deals with her foes. Why Superman is still with her I have no idea.
I love this! I never understood or accepted a Diana who did not kill. She explained it beautifully when she fought Medousa & then Max Lord! She has no issues killing monsters even in human form. If death is the only way to stop them, then so be it!

I kind of liked that point also, but I would still like to see her rogues gallery in the New 52.

There are around, just not in her title. Giganta (Pandora), Circe (Men of War?) & Dr. Psycho (Superboy) have all showed up elsewhere.
In this scene she never specifically say she kills them. Out of the Trinity, yes she is the most likely to kill but it would have to be a last resort thing for her to do. She shouldn't be jumping to straight up killing people right off the bat.
This is possibly the best thing i've ever read. It's like yeah i kill villains so what. It's true most villains just come back and start more crap. It's a very realistic approach to an unrealistic situation. so really im saying WHY DON'T WE ALL JUST STAB DESPARO!
I like the idea that she won't sit around and let innocents get hurt by some maniac every time they escape from prison, but I wish Johns had acknowledged that she tries to get them to change before she just offs her villains. It shows in her solo book: she's not afraid to throw down, but she usually tries to talk people down first.
Also, I would never troll a Citizenbane thread ... that's like .... imagine something you wouldn't do then keep multiplying it be a number greater than 1...its like that!
Killing should be part of her character as she is warrior and from a different time where slaying was the most acceptable term. There is also the gods who would demand it from her. This is what makes her stand out and she needs that.
That being said, Wonder Woman needs a Shredder type of villain. She needs a character where killing him/her makes the problems far worst.
