Wonder Woman. The character gets the shield of Zeus (the Aegis) as a new weapon (it creates storms) and the hammer of Hephaestus (it can create volcanoes). So she gets nerfed up. And then Authority the fuck out of the character: Trigon the Terrible appears and is poised destroy the world, and WW chops off his head and mounts it on a pike. Starro takes over the planet, and WW decides to deal decisively and barbecues him. Kanjar-Ro's invasion fleet destroys the Philippines and blows up Manila ("Neil! Nooooo!") and Wondy repels the invasion and drops him into a lava pit.
I'd really like to see a major DC character be kick-arse in a real war instead of pussyfooting around with "Oh, let's imprison this insane mass murderer so he can escape again and kill more people". This character is the only one which has the potential for it.
Not that I read the cultural gutter which is superhero comics anymore. Next!
I was talking to someone the other day about why Wonder Woman hardly ever works anymore.
we basically agreed that she has no reason to be in Man's world. WWII made sense, but the ambassador didn't work, etc. There has to be a reason for WW to leave a place like paradise island. A good reason, and there hasn't been one recently.
World eating monsters like starro and Trigon could help give a reason.
