    Wonder Woman

    Character » Wonder Woman appears in 8805 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.

    When has current WW done that? Are we back to Marston era and i didn't notice? That'd be cool to see her that powerful again. But i haven't seen it yet.

    as you can see above I mentioned she's always OP, current version or not and that was for general however with witchhour it's safe to assume she's above something like that one way or another

    So the most characters above mid tier, Diana, Clark, Thor, Hulk, Spawn and even worse Goku, Seyas, Jin Mori, Sailor Moon, Odin, Thanos, Dark Schneider, the Endless, Living Tribunal and douzens more are all just silly?

    @alsimmons77: We know why Clark is OP not just he's an alien but we know his body is a solar battery and receive energy from yellow sun.

    We Know Thor is OP not just he's son of Odin but also it was his destiny to fight evil (Ragnarok).

    Hulk is OP because Banner worked on some kind of super soldier serum which increase physical abilities combined with gamma it affects Banner the way he's already now, plus we know some of his strength comes from his anger.

    Never read spawn

    I don't know those anime stuff

    Odin same as Thor

    Thanos is an alien with some genetic experiment and natural enhancements from some kind of OP race.

    Living tribunal is just an angel of GOD, you expect him to be weak???

    We know she's from a strong race but just every Greek god appear and give her their powers just because they wanted to, is something silly.

    @michaelbn: Technically she is currently the daughter of Zeus and thus a demigodess. As a result she should be powerful. If anything she should be more so than she currently is. If the solar battery thing is enough to justify Clark's then this is more than enough.

    In Rebirth her origin is a confusing mixture of the original and the new but if you read it, you'll see that it was to help her with her mission in "man's world". In order to fight Ares and other threats she needs to be powerful.

    She's either a demigodess/ a being designed by gods and thus should be more powerful than she is. She was also destined to fight Ares and other god level threats.

    She also needs to be powerful character-wise. She's DC's premiere Warrior. She needs to live up to the title of greatest fighter and thus needs to be the most capable combatant on the JL. It's the purpose she serves. On a team with The Flash and Clark, she needs to be capable of fighting at their level and possibly higher.

    @agent41: certainly I prefer that original concept, this one seems dull like "yo, she was always a powerhouse so let's make her daughter of yada yada and let her do that tada tada without any explaining blah blah"

    They literally explain it. She was rewarded super powers by her gods as a result of winning their contest. This type of thing happens in all manner of myth and fantasy stories. It's no more nonsensical than any other reason for super powered characters being so powerful.

    What feats did you mention to as her being too OP? Is she became more powerful than her Post Crisis counterpart?
