    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.

    Wonder Woman '77 releases tomorrow! Check out the preview.

    That's some good art. I'm hoping we see First Born 77. I also hope this series hits it off so we can get that crossover Andreyko promised us

    I don't know about that, but it would definitely be fun to see the gods in the future since they never were even mentioned in the series.

    Edit: Hm, I think Athena actually was mentioned in the 1st episode of the 2nd Season...

    It's a possibility, especially if the series goes on long enough. First Born would just go through a campy transformation like the rest of the characters.

    I know I already said this, but this art is stunning. Kinda shocked they went this realistic looking. Kinda expected a more cartoony look like in Batman 66. I wonder if different artists are going to be working on this book

    I think the more realistic look give it more of a 70s tone. Also the background ornaments and the vintage colors.

    Maybe it will be the same artist during the entire first arc, then it will change.

    @csg_cl: This is based on Golden Age Wonder Woman? This is definitely going to be worth reading.

    @zhurong: partially. The TV series took elements from the Golden Age rather than basing the charaters off of the (then) current comics. The Amazons in particular were more GA than anything else and were depicted as somewhat naive to man's world rather than as antagonistic toward men. They were also all powerful like Diana rather than her being mystically empowered by the gods.
