Today I was looking through the DC Encyclopedia looking at the dates and reading some old histories of the characters. When I was reading the Wonder Woman pages they made note of the fact that Hippolyta went back in time and was Wonder Woman during the Golden Age of comics. I guess I just wanted to discuss it. Like how do many of you feel about the idea of Wonder Woman's history actually being done by Hippolyta.
Personally I think this was a clever idea on DC's part to keep much of the Wonder Woman history from the Golden Age around while also not making it totally age Wonder Woman. Though I also understand (or think I do) that this change made Steve Trevor much older than Wondie and makes Wonder Woman almost like a legacy character. Something that I don't honestly like. I always viewed the Trinity as the heroes that aren't exactly legacy. Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman always were there own thing. They were never part of some bigger identity like the Flash, Green Lantern, or Atom mantles. So I feel kinda mixed about it. Its stupid I do though I do.
Any other opinions?
