Look, I'm sure many people probably think that I'm some "crazy" Wonder Woman fan already from the title. Possibly, if what I think is true.
It seems that in the New 52, Wonder Woman has possibly been depowered. Now in Justice League,s he's been shown to be quite strong as she effortlessly defeats several Parademons. In her own title, though she hasn't fought very much, she was shown easily knocking down trees on Themyscira. So her physical strength doesn't seem to be much different.
However, I'm afraid that one of the best additions to Wonder Woman's toolbelt from George Perez was the ability to fly. She's WONDER WOMAN, not Mediocre Woman! She should be able to fly on her own power! I know Azzarello might be trying to highlight her athleticism, but please let her freaking fly still!
In Justice League #5, Hal Jordan has to use his ring to lift the other non-flyers, which is everyone except Superman( of course John Jones should be a flyer and should be there, but that's another topic entirely). So basically all Wonder Woman would appear to be is Aquaman except without the Atlantean abilities.
Also, PLEASE do not make the Invisible Jet her main source of transportation again. I don't necessarily hate the Invisible Jet, in fact it's one of the few elements I tolerate from Wonder Woman's crappy pre-crisis history, but to depower her to, most likely, MAKE HER MORE REALISTIC is just absurd and almost brings back memories of the vile "mod girl" era Wonder Woman.
