The question is in the title. How her new status as God of War affect her? Will she get darker eventually becoming an antihero? Will she go bad and be forced to give her power up? Or will it be that nothing changes? I think we will see a darker Diana., which will effect her supporting cast and her relationships with other heroes. What do you think.
Wonder Woman
Character » Wonder Woman appears in 8805 issues.
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.
How Diana being God of War will affect her personality?
Batman is the Dark Knight and he isnt neither antiher or villiain. Why would affect her ? Unless if she drank with power, i dont see a reason why would affect anything.
None of Gods dont seem villiains unless you cross them.
@darkman61288: dont know so far she has rejected the title until now i guess she well be a little more aggressive her super hero friend would be a little freak out about since there all about keeping the peace.
@fallschirmjager: Yet, the Gods are personifications of concepts thus their power and feelings are drawn from them. Diana is now powered by war thus she now depend it on it. Every act of war would either power her up or cause pleasure.

And yet...Ares' personality didn't change all that much. Neither did whats-her-name (Zeus' wife) when she was depowered.
Even so, if Diana isn't exactly weak-willed.
I think that WW being the god of war is a great way to explore the dichotomy of her character. Yes, she's now the walking embodiment of war, but I feel like that also lends a hand in her appreciation for life and peace. I don't think WW being the god of war should make her evil, that seems too obvious (and stupid, IMO) a direction to go. I'd love it if it provided a window to view her personally dealing with war and peace and her role in both.
@divingfalcon713: She's the Goddess of War-Against-Evil as peace needs to be fought for for as long as there's evil in the world, whereas before she was a soldier for this cause. She's a God now.
Our capacity for mercy is what separates us from beast... But it is only in the qualities of cruelty, violence, and, war that we can truly measure a mans soul... To sum up our humanity, is to travel a road that separates divinity from depravity... an abyss of tempestuous lusts indulged by ape and god alike...
who knows hopefully ares comes back and gets it back and goes back to being a villain and not looking like azz himself.
@tigerkaya: lol, guess fans of New 52 Wonder Woman are fools for liking good writing, yes?
Er, I KNOW I don't follow WW on a regular basis- but becoming the God(not Goddess?) of War really doesn't seem compatible with being a self styled Ambassadress of peace and understanding! Granted, Diana may have been trained as a warrior as befits her Amazon heritage( as have several Marvel heroes and heroines, Captain America, Wolverine, Ms.Marvel, Moon Knight), but that is far from enjoying or glorying in battle and the shedding of blood as Gods of War, be they Ares/Mars or his Asgardian counterpart Tyr seem to do. My personal view is that outside of direct self defence, war is a dubious proposition( pace "regime change" in Iraq for a real life case)
I guess I was right about it affecting her.

The battle between the God of War and Nemesis can only spell doom for humanity – but can Kal restore Diana to her senses before it’s too late?
oh Really? I knew it would happen. Azzarello probably has nothing to do with it
So Superman's just gonna save Wonder Woman again and again and again. This makes sense because according to Batman, Wonder Woman's not as good of a person as Superman so now her power's going to go straight to her head revealing her true colors but luckily for Humanity Superman will re-evangelize her because he's pure, besides being 10 times more powerful and smart.
@archizoom: what im surprise is why are they calling him kal instead of superman and in action comic future end supposedly he disappear
@darknightspideyfanboy: maybe he went looking for Wonder Woman's humanity. Knowing Grant Morrison he may have Superman travel back and forth in the timestream and between Universes in search of Wonder Woman's humanity
