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.
I don't really know much about the atlanteans. I'd imagine they are closer in strength to Aquaman then the amazons are to Wonder Woman. That would probably give them the edge but I'd guess that the amazons are still better fighters.
@darknightspideyfanboy: @rustyroy: No C'mon man ......1) there's hardly any activity on the aquaman or atlantean forums. and in the DC forums there's not as much activity as this one. 2) I'm not trying to attack any fan base, start battles or be a troll; i was just thinking of the JL flashpoint movie when i posted this thread. I apologize if it came across that way.
3) I honestly don't know, i just wanted see if others knew.

thanks, that helps a bit, i didn't know their strength relative to aquaman's. and yeah i would assume that the amazons were more equipped in physical combat
@marvel123: No problem, it was probably a misunderstanding. I'd say Atlantians, they are possibly stronger and more durable. I don't know which one is faster though, Atlantians should be fast swimmers but in land Amazons will beat them.
@rustyroy: cool, thanks. out of all the superhuman races in dc,(with the exeption of krypton/daxam) these two seem to be the closest match to each other (relative to their strength, speed,and durability) from what i've seen.
In new 52 we don't really know yet the level of strength of the Amazons. It has changed a lot among the years, anyway. Originally their strength derived from training and mental energy, and Wonder Woman's powers had the same origin of the other amazons, then it changed, with her blessed by the gods and now daughter of Zeus.
Anyway, maybe we will know more soon. The amazons have returned in wonder woman's solo title in the last issue.
