    Wonder Woman

    Character » Wonder Woman appears in 8808 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.

    Would/should she have an accent(in a movie/show)?

    In Super Best Friends Forever, Donna Troy is given a darker skin tone and Greek accent to match her character. Shouldn't Wonder Woman have a similar voice? Should this trait also be implemented into Wonder Woman in other media? Should an accent become the norm for her, similar to how a deep and/or gravely voice has become the norm for Batman?

    Pre new 52 she was supposed to have an expert ability to master languages (thanks to the blessing of wisdom by Athena). I am not sure if this still holds but if yes then she should should presumably have no accent unless she wanted to.

    It would make her stand out and not just be "white"

    It could also be a hard thing to cast.

    I think that she should have an accent as it would lend a little authenticity to the character, perhaps curse every once and again in her native language. "D

    Opa! Would be awesome! My Big Fat Greek Wonder Woman! Somebody make this happen!

    Joking aside, I don't think it would be that hard to cast as the plight of a quality actor is to make the roll believable. Give me your best Greek accent and . . . .ACTION!

    It'd be cool to have her curse in Greek too, like how Holly always goes D'Arvit!

    Meh, I don't know. I'm not an expert on Wonder Woman, so I think it would be OK.

    It would make sense if she did but I don't think it's imperative that she have one.
