"The Lies" storyline reveals that numerous events from the previous Wonder Woman series, in which Diana was made the Queen of the Amazons and the God of War, were in fact all an illusion created by a mysterious villain, and she had never once been back to Themyscira ever since she left, nor is she capable of returning ...
The next day, Diana learned from her mother that she was in fact Zeus' daughter and, hurt by her existence being a lie, she decided to renounce the name Diana, and swore never to return to the island again.
Her strength, speed, near invulnerability to physical harm, and equipment (particularly her golden lasso) make her a strong character. She is part of the DC “trinity,” along with Batman and Superman, and is a founder of the Justice League, humanity's defense against powerful threats.
Though Diana had saved Themyscira, with the help of the other League members, she had broken the sacred law that forbade anyone from bringing men to the island. Because of her actions, Hippolyta was forced to banish Diana from Themyscira.
Expert deceiver: Hippolyta is highly skilled in deception and covert information withholding, as she lied to her daughter Diana for centuries as the latter grew up, never revealing her true heritage as the demigod "god killer", and instead claiming that she had sculpted Diana from clay, after which Zeus had brought the ...
What was the secret Wonder Woman's mom kept from her?
In writer Brian Azzarello and artist Cliff Chiang's New 52 run, Wonder Woman's origin is changed: Diana learns she was never made out of clay, and — like what the movie implies with Ares — the clay story was used as a cover by Wonder Woman's mother to hide that she and Zeus had had a relationship.
Wonder Woman is the strongest and most powerful of all the Amazons thanks to her goddess-granted powers from Aphrodite. She is even said to be "Stronger than Hercules", and able to physically outmatch other beings such as Superman and Supergirl.
In fact, Diana's fading powers were a result of her own wish. When she first came into contact with the Dreamstone, she expressed a desire to have Steve Trevor back. That wish promptly came true when Steve was resurrected (sort of). As was later revealed, though, the Dreamstone doesn't give without also taking away.
Deborah Harkness says in an FAQ somewhere that Diana will age normally. Apparently, in the author's mind, the satisfying/romantic conclusion is that Diana will help her husband age along with her, and then both of them will die when Diana reaches the end of her lifespan.
As Diana Prince, she worked in the U.S. War Department as an assistant to intelligence officer Steve Trevor. Decades later she and Trevor married and had a daughter, Lyta (also known as Fury).
She has no convenient weakness. She used to be rendered powerless if she was bound or shackled by a man, but that's been phased out. She would also go mad when her bracelets were removed. Not treated consistently either.
In her original stories, and up until the 1980s, Diana's main weakness was being bound by a man. If captured and bound by a man, Wonder Woman couldn't access her powers. If a woman tied her up, however, Diana remained as strong as ever.
The authors Tina Brown, Sally Bedell Smith, and Sarah Bradford support Diana's admission in the interview that she had suffered from depression, bulimia and had engaged numerous times in the act of self-harm; the show's transcript records Diana confirming many of her mental health problems.
The sword was ultimately and casually destroyed by the real Ares, who revealed that the so-called God Killer sword was not the true "God Killer" meant to kill him, but that Diana herself was. The blade was almost completely disintegrated, but the rest of the sword remained intact. What became of it is unknown.
To reproduce and keep the Amazon race alive, the Themyscirans raid ships on the high seas and copulate with men. At the end of the mating, they take their lives and throw their corpses into the sea rather than marry them. Triumphant, the Amazons return to Paradise Island, and wait.
She was already weaker than in the original because of the contract where she lost her powers for her lover, but she still didn't feel like the strong superhero we all know and love. The other aspects of the movie were also weak and underplayed.
Could Diana have been saved? Brewer believes she could have been. She was killed by a drunken driver, but an emergency medical system that was too slow did not save her. Her chances of survival were diminished by a system that took 101 minutes to get her to a hospital that was 6 kilometers away.
This is first hinted at when she struggles to break the garage lock at Maxwell Lord's company headquarters, but it becomes obvious when Lord's security detail shoots Wonder Woman; the bullet pierces her skin, thus making her bleed for the first time from a mortal weapon.
Starfire may be most well known for being scantily clad or her role in Teen Titans but she should be known for her undeniable ability to beat the pants off Wonder Woman (or underwear rather).
If close allies Superman and Wonder Woman were forced to fight to the death, it's no contest: Diana would absolutely be able to kill Clark. The two unfortunately found out how a match-up would shake out after Superman was manipulated by Maxwell Lord's mind-control powers.
Does Wonder Woman ever have a child? Depends on the storyline you follow. Wonder Woman has two children, fathered by Superman. The oldest, a daughter, is somewhat rebellious, trying to find 'her' way, the youngest, a boy, is a bit to young to do so.
In this continuity, the Queen Hippolyta is depicted as having blond hair and is the biological mother of Diana. She conceived her daughter after an after-battle liaison with Zeus, master of the gods of Olympus. She invented the "molded from clay" story to protect Diana from Hera.
With the 2011 relaunch of DC Comics dubbed The New 52, Zeus has received a prominent role in the Wonder Woman mythos, as he is now the biological father of Wonder Woman through Hippolyta.
"On close-up I looked very much like Wonder Woman," she said. "On wide shots, I looked very funny, like Wonder Woman pregnant with Kermit the Frog," because the costume department covered her bump with a bright green fabric that could be digitally altered in postproduction.
