Fictional character biography

Golden Age

In her debut in All Star Comics #8, Diana was a part of a tribe of female women named the Amazons, native to Paradise Island- a secluded island set in the middle of a vast ocean. Captain Steve Trevor's plane crashes on the island and he is found alive by Diana and a fellow Amazon. Diana has him nursed back to help and falls in love with him. Her mother, the Queen of the Amazons Hippolyte holds a competition among all the Amazons to decide who is the most worthy of all the women. The winner would then be given the chance of delivering Captain Steve Trevor back to man's world and fight for freedom and liberty. Diana enters the competition wearing a mask to conceal her identity, as her mother forbids her to enter the competition. She wins the competition and then reveals her identity. The winner nevertheless, she is chosen to take Steve Trevor back and is awarded a special dress made by her mother for her new role as Wonder Woman.

When she came to America for the first time, Wonder Woman came upon a weeping army nurse named Diana Prince. The nurse wanted to leave for South America with her fiancé but was unable to due shortage of money. As both of them looked identical and Wonder Woman needed a job and identity to monitor on Steve, who was admitted in the same army hospital, she gave her the money she had earned earlier to help her go to her fiancé in exchange of her credentials. Thus, Diana's secret identity of Diana Prince was created and she started to work as an army nurse.

Wonder Woman then took part in a variety of adventures, mostly side by side with Trevor. Her most common foes during that period would be Nazi forces, and sometimes villains like Baroness Paula Von Gunther, The Cheetah, Doctor Psycho and Duke of Deception.

Silver Age

In the Silver Age, Wonder Woman's history received many changes. Her earlier origin, which had significant ties to World War II was changed. Wonder Woman's powers were the product of the God's blessings- "beautiful as Aphrodite, wise as Athena, stronger than Hercules, and swifter than Mercury". The concepts of Wonder Girl and Wonder Tot were introduced during this period.

Wonder Woman Vol 1 Issue #179 (November, 1968) showed Wonder Woman giving up her powers and returning her costume to her mother in order to continue staying in Man's World as all the other Amazons were moving to a new dimension and Diana needed to stay back to help a wrongly-convicted Steve. Thus, she no longer had the title of Wonder Woman and after meeting and training under a blind martial arts mentor I-Ching, fought crime as the powerless Diana Prince. She also ran a mod-boutique as a business and dressed in a series of jumpsuits while fighting crime.

Bronze Age

Starting from Wonder Woman Vol 1 #204, Diana's powers and costume were returned to her and her memories were restored by her mother. She was once again reinstated as Wonder Woman. I-Ching is killed by a sniper in the same issue. Diana also meets her 'sister' Nubia, who is Hippolyta's daughter fashioned out of dark clay (hence Nubia's dark complexion). Nubia was the Wonder Woman of "The Floating Island", she challenges Diana to a duel which ends in a draw. Returning to her home, Nubia would have further adventures involving Diana.

The last issue of Volume 1 showed Diana and Steve Trevor announce their love for each other and their subsequent marriage.

Modern Age

The events of Crisis on Infinite Earths greatly changed the history of the DC Universe. Wonder Woman's history and origin was also considerably revamped. Wonder Woman was now an emissary and ambassador from Themyscira (the new name for Paradise Island) to Patriarch's World, charged with the mission of bringing peace to the outside world. A variety of deities and concepts from Greek mythology were blended into Wonder Woman's stories and origin. She was formed out of clay of the shores of the island by Hippolyta, who wished for a child and the clay figure was then brought to life by the Greek deities. She was then blessed with unique powers and abilities by the Greek deities- beauty from Aphrodite, strength from Demeter, wisdom from Athena, speed and flight from Hermes, Eyes of the Hunter and unity with beasts from Artemis, and sisterhood with fire and ability to discern the truth from Hestia. Due to the reboot, her previous history, and her marriage to Steve Trevor was erased. Trevor was introduced as a man much older than Diana and would later on marry Etta Candy.

Starting in Wonder Woman Vol 2 #51, The Amazons, who had revealed their presence to the outer world in Wonder Woman Vol 2 #50, are blamed for a series of murders and the theft of various artefacts. The Amazons are taken into custody, Queen Hippolyta seems nowhere to be found and Steve Trevor is forced by General Yedziniak to attack Themyscira. These events lead to the major crossover event titled "War of the Gods", with Wonder Woman as its main character. The culprit of the murders, thefts and the framing of the Amazons is revealed to be the witch Circe, who "kills" Diana by reverting her form back into the clay she was born from. Later, Wonder Woman is brought back to life and together with Donna Troy, she battles Circe and ultimately defeats her. Circe would later return by unknown means.

In Wonder Woman Vol 2 #73, Wonder Woman started to work as a waitress at a local Taco Whiz franchise due to her facing a money deficiency. She later left the job and started working as a private eye.

When Hippolyta and the other Amazons were in a demonic dimension, she started receiving visions about the death of Wonder Woman. Fearing her daughter's death, Hippolyta created a false story that she claimed Diana was not worthy of continuing her role as Wonder Woman, and arranged for a contest to determine who would be the new Wonder Woman, thus protecting Diana from her supposed fate. The participants of the final round were Diana and Artemis, and due to some mystical manipulation by Hippolyta, Artemis won the contest. Thus, Artemis became the new Wonder Woman and Diana was forced to hand over her costume, who then started fighting crime in an alternate costume. Artemis later died in battle with the White Magician- Hippolyta vision of a dying Wonder Woman did come true, albeit not of Diana as Wonder Woman. Diana once again became Wonder Woman, a request made by Artemis in her last seconds. Artemis would later return as Requiem. Prior to Artemis' death, Hippolyta would admit to her daughter about her own part in Artemis' death, which strained their relationship as Diana was unable to forgive her mother for sending another Amazon to her death knowingly for the sake of saving her own daughter.

The demon Neron engaged in battle with Diana in Wonder Woman Vol 2 #125 and managed to strike her fatally and kill her. Diana then attained divinity and the status of the Goddess of Truth and started to reside in Olympus, her mother Hippolyta then assumed the role of Wonder Woman and wore her own different incarnation of the costume. In Wonder Woman Vol 2 #136, Diana was banished from Olympus due to interfering in earthly matters (as Diana was unable to simply watch over people's misery on earth). She immediately returned to her duties as Wonder Woman, but ran into conflicts with her mother over her true place and role as Hippolyta seemed accustomed to her life in America. Their fight remained unsolved, as Hippolyta tragically died during the Our Worlds at War event. Even Themyscira was destroyed during the event, but was restored and reformed as a collection of floating islands. Circe later resurrected Hippolyta in Wonder Woman Vol 3 #8.

One of the events that led to Infinite Crisis was of Wonder Woman killing the villain Maxwell Lord in Wonder Woman Vol 2 #219. Maxwell Lord was mind-controlling Superman, who as a result of this was near to killing Batman. Unable to mind control Wonder Woman, Lord made Superman see her as Doomsday killing Lois Lane. Superman then attacked Wonder Woman, and a vicious battle ensued. Buying herself time by slicing Superman's throat with her tiara, Wonder Woman caught Lord in her Lasso of Truth and asked him how to stop his control over Superman. As the lasso forced the wearer to speak only the truth, Lord told her that the only way to stop him was to kill him. Left with no choice, Wonder Woman snapped Lord's neck. Unknown to her, the entire scene was broadcast live around every channel in the world by Brother Eye. The viewers were not aware of the entire situation, and saw only Wonder Woman murdering a Justice League associate. Wonder Woman's actions put her at odds with Batman or Superman, as they saw Wonder Woman as a cold-blooded killer, despite the fact that she saved them.

At the end of Infinite Crisis, Wonder Woman, along with fellow members of DC's Trinity Batman and Superman, temporarily retires from her costumed identity. Diana, once again using the alias Diana Prince, joins the Department of Metahuman Affairs. Donna Troy became the new Wonder Woman, but is captured by Diana's enemies. Diana then goes on a mission to rescue her sister, battling Circe and Hercules. In the end, Diana defeats the villains, frees Donna and takes up the role of Wonder Woman again. Circe also places a spell on Diana, which renders Diana as a normal human being without any powers when in the role of Diana Prince; her powers come to her only when she is the role of Wonder Woman.

The storyline "The Circle" (Wonder Woman Vol 3 #14-#17) was focused on the revelation of a failed assassination attempt on Diana when she was newly-born, by four rogue Amazons. These Amazons were collectively referred to as The Circle, and consisted of Myrto, Charis, Philomela, and Alkyone. The four Amazons were Hippolyta's personal guards and extremely loyal and devoted to her. However, when Hippolyta decided to raise a daughter, The Circle was horrified and considered the baby ill-fate, one who would ruin their race. Thus, after Diana was given sculpted out of clay and brought to life, The Circle decided to kill the baby. Their attempt was foiled however, and the four Amazons were imprisoned. After years, the Circle escaped their prisons with the help of the Nazis, and decided to accomplish their previously failed mission and kill Diana. Diana defeated Myrto, Charis, Philomela and then approached Alkyone, who revealed that Diana could have been her daughter as even she had always pined for one but ignored her desire. Alkyone runs off and succumbs to her death by falling into the ocean. The other three Amazons return to their prisons.

Issue #600 introduced Wonder Woman to an alternate timeline created by the Gods in which Paradise Island had been destroyed and the Amazons being scattered around the world. In this timeline, Diana is an orphan raised in New York who is learning to cope with her powers. The entire world has forgotten Wonder Woman's existence and the main story of this run was of Diana trying to restore reality even though she does not properly remember it herself. Diana has no memories of her prior adventures as Wonder Woman and recollects her memories in bits and pieces and also receives different abilities and resources, such as the power of flight and her lasso during the progression of her adventure. A trio of Death Goddesses called the Morrigan acted as the main enemy of Wonder Woman. Diana ultimately defeats the evil goddesses and returns everything back to normal.

The New 52

In September 2011, DC Comics relaunched its entire line of publication to cater to the needs of a new generation, dubbing the event "The New 52". Wonder Woman now appeared wearing a new costume similar to her older one. Her character also received major changes and her origin was changed completely.

In this new continuity, Wonder Woman's origin is significantly changed in the way that she is no longer a clay figure brought to life by the magic of the gods. Instead, she is the natural-born daughter of Hippolyta and Zeus. The earlier origin story was revealed by Hippolyta to be a lie she concocted in order to protect Diana from the wrath of Hera, who is known for hunting and killing several illegitimate offspring of Zeus.

Wonder Woman meets and protects a young woman named Zola, from Hera's wrath. Zola is pregnant with Zeus's child and Hera, seething with jealousy intends to kill the child. The major event in this story is the revelation of Diana's true parentage- long ago, Hippolyta and Zeus battled each other. The battle ended with the couple making love and thus Diana was conceived.

The story then focuses on Wonder Woman's quest to rescue Zola from Hades, who had abducted her and taken her to Hell at the end of the sixth issue of the series. The male Amazons are introduced and their origin story is revealed- the Amazons used to infrequently invade the ships coming near the island and force themselves on the sailors, and then kill them. After nine months, the birth of the female children are highly celebrated and inducted into the proper ranks of the Amazons while the male children are rejected. In order to save the male children from being drowned to death by the Amazons, Hephaestus trades them with the Amazons in exchange for weapons.

Wonder Woman then tries to protect Zola from Appollo, as it is prophesied that one of Zeus' children will be his downfall which Apollo considers to be Zola's child. Wonder Woman receives the power of flight by one of Hermes' feathers piercing her thigh and Zola's baby is stolen by Hermes at the end and given to Demeter. The issue's last page shows a dark and mysterious man rising from the snow, taking a helmet and disappearing.

A stand-alone #0 Issue was released in September which explored Diana's childhood and her tutelage under Ares, the God of War. The issue was narrated in the style of a typical Silver Age comic book and saw Diana in her childhood years. The main plot of the issue was Diana training under Ares as he thought of her being an extraordinary girl with immense potential. The issue ultimately concluded with Diana learning and experiencing the importance of mercy, as she hesitates and refuses to kill the Minotaur- a task given to her by Ares; however, this show of mercy makes her a failure in Ares' eyes.

Wonder Woman also appears as one of the lead characters in the new Justice League title written by Geoff Johns and drawn by Jim Lee

In August 2012, she and Superman shared a kiss in Justice League Vol 2 #12, hinting a possible romance, which, according to Chief Creative Officer and Justice League writer Geoff Johns, will be the new status quo.
