message: Wasn't Diana a goddess? I don't know too much about that, can someone else fill in the gaps?
There is also the possibility that you read something about the John Byrne run in the mid 1990s.  He briefly made Diana (WW) the Goddess of Truth. Luis Dantas 10:46, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: WW is named Diana, but she most certainly is not particularly linked to the Roman Goddess that shares that name with her.  Nor with Artemis, the corresponding Greek Goddess, for that matter.  As for how WW became the Goddess of truth, Zeus ascended her when she died.  But she ended up too stuck with mortal ways and was restored.  I did not directly read that material, though.  Word reached me that I probably will not want to.

message: I'm not sure the mention of Birdman in this article is accurate.  I thought Birdman was an Alex-Toth-created made-for-TV superhero. Taco Deposit | Talk-o Deposit 02:08, Sep 29, 2004 (UTC)
:Maybe there's been more than one Birdman? --Paul A 04:50, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)
replies: text:  Apparently the "Birdman" in question in this article was "Wingo the Birdman," if this website[] is accurate. Someone can also look up Wonder Woman 161 (Jan 1965) or 165 (July 1965) to confirm this. SterlingNorth 23:31, 12 May 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, we finally have proof. Here's an article with a picture of one of the bird-people.[] And yes, this is from the age when Wonder Woman's writing fell down a cliff. SterlingNorth 23:32, 28 May 2005 (UTC)

message: This article's handling of Steve Trevor is a bit odd: it mentions him here and there, mostly in reference to ways he changed over the years, without ever bothering with an initial explanation of who he actually was. --Paul A 04:50, 30 Sep 2004 (UTC)

message: Is it really necessary to include plot details about recent stories?  (e.g. "Diana now has grey eyes.")  We don't provide that level of information about the stories published in, say 1975, after all.  I think the article should stick to an overview of the character and general description of her current status, and leave the "and then in issue number...." stuff to the fansites. Tverbeek 2 July 2005 15:47 (UTC)
:It's not the eye colour thing. It's the "After saving Hermes, and putting Athena on the throne, she was rewarded by binding her eyesight with Diana's." If the character was blind, and now she's not (or something to that effect), I do think is relevant. The colour of her eyes may be an irrelevant detail. The fact that she can now see again it's not. -- Andromeda 2 July 2005 20:17 (UTC)
::But do we need a plot synopsis of how it happened?  If she was blind, but now she's not, then why not take out the statement that she's blind, because it apparently was just a temporary thing (and therefore, not all that notable).  Adding info about each story arc as it comes along like this is (I think) unnecessary detail. Tverbeek 2 July 2005 23:07 (UTC)
According to recent issue's blurb from Greg Rucka's website, I am fairly sure that it is a consequence of her fight with a Gorgon.  Shades of Saint Seiya's Shiryu, who had a similar predicament while fighting Algol.  I may be wrong. Luis Dantas 10:49, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

message: Someone should upload pics by Ross Andru and Adam Hughes of the character, as those two have probably been the most influential in depicting the character besides Peter and Perez. They certainly deserve it more than J.G. Jones who gets two pics on here!! Hueysheridan 15:01, 19 July 2005 (UTC)

message: I've read the article Wonder Woman myself, that is how I had found out about the battle going on.
Does DC Comics intend that Paradise Island be destroyed, these women exterminated, or is this one of those "cliff hangers" ? Will Wonder Woman be destroyed ?!Martial Law 05:09, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: With a movie version of Wonder Woman just around the corner, I think the odds of her dying in Infinite Crisis are slim to none. But it's possible some sort of reinvention/reboot may be in the offing considering how things are developing in the storyline. 23skidoo 05:50, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

message: I'm surprised not to see Artemis mentioned (the stand-in WW that is). I don't have the knowledge to start an article on her, but I want to start one for the OTHER Artemis / Tigress in the Injustice Society. I suppose my question is: should Artemis have her own article, or just a mention in WW's article? Korvac 22:26, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

message: I don't think I read anything about where on Earth Wonder Woman resides. Mind you, I don't know much about the character; I don't know if she lives in a city, travels the Earth a lot, or maybe only comes to Earth at certain times. So, if I could get some help, that would be wonderful.--Kelly Chartier 06:37, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Opps! Now I get it: she lives in Themyscira (which is somewhere in the Bermuda Triangle), and goes to America when there's trouble. I see now.--Kelly Chartier 07:49, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: That is a way of looking at things, I guess.  In practice, she lives in some American big city and returns to Themyscira occasionally (sometimes very occasionally indeed).  Pre-Crisis that city would be New York; post-Crisis, it was Boston, then (during Byrne's run) the fictional Gateway City, CA (based on San Francisco, I think).  I think she has since moved again. Luis Dantas 14:10, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Have you ever noticed how many bleeding comic book character's fight crime in New York? Is there one that fights crime in Los Angeles? I know this isn't important, but darned if it isn't bothering me.--Kelly Chartier 06:38, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: In the Marvel Universe there were several.  First The Champions of Los Angeles, then Spider-Woman (Jessica Drew), and finally The West Coast Avengers.Luis Dantas 13:21, 17 January 2006 (UTC)

text:  My understanding is her present home is the Themyscrian Embassy but I don't know which city that's located in (this being the DC world, Washington is not necessarily the automatic assumption). Given her present legal status, her home is probably more accurately the UN prison. 23skidoo 15:11, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Shouldn't someone put this information into the article? If I've missed it and it's there: my mistake. But I haven't read anything pertaining to where she fights crime.--Kelly Chartier 10:13, 8 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps those most frequented places should be listed? Not sure though.--Kelly Chartier 06:09, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

message: The recent reappearance of the Earth-Two Wonder Woman in Infinite Crisis #5 piqued my interest about her. Could someone more familiar with the E2 Diana Prince include some information about her in the main article? I know that she was the mother of the Pre-Crisis  Fury, and I know what happened to her at the end of Crisis on Infinite Earths, but I'm interested in knowing more about how her character was distinguished from the Earth-One version, the way (the Earth-Two) Superman & Batman were.
