    Wonder Woman

    Character » Wonder Woman appears in 8808 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.

    Is the DCnU Wonder Woman looking a little more Greek?

    She looks a little less American to me in her first issue. Diana has always been pictured as more of an Americanized woman version in my opinion. I like the new design with slightly darker skin and features that remind me more of a Greek/Mediterranean woman. It might just be me though.

    Not to me, its just the art style.  Though I agree a more Mediterranean look would be better

    Wonder Woman can't look less Caucasian. If she's looks more based off of a greek woman(Mediterranean) she's still looking Caucasian.

    She looks as Caucasian as ever. 
     
    You mean she looks more Mediterranean? Not uncommon for Wonder Woman artists, Nicola Scott in particular liked to try and make Diana look as Greek as possible. I consider current artist is probably following suit, but bet this will change from artist to artist as per usual.

    She does look much better to me in the comic... Different Artists have different takes I guess I am not expecting them to keep her looking that way. Anyway I have been working on creating a Wonder Woman character for a private project of mine. This is my take. (PS not finished I know my creation still needs some work. I specifically tried not to make her so American PIE and more GREEK/Mediterranean

    Is it just me, or does Diana's head look tiny in the second image?
