Wonder Woman, also known as Diana of Themyscira, is a legendary superhero from DC Comics who first appeared in All Star Comics #8 in 1941. She is an Amazonian warrior princess with divine origins, often portrayed as the daughter of Queen Hippolyta and, in some versions of the story, the Greek god Zeus. Raised on the hidden island of Themyscira, a paradise inhabited only by Amazons, Diana is trained from a young age to be a fierce warrior, deeply committed to justice, peace, and truth.
She eventually leaves her homeland to enter the world of men, often motivated by a desire to end war and protect humanity from destruction. In the outside world, she adopts the alias Diana Prince and becomes a founding member of the Justice League. Her iconic costume, inspired by ancient Greek and Roman armor, includes her indestructible bracelets, a magical tiara, and the Lasso of Truth—a weapon that compels honesty from anyone it binds.
Wonder Woman is known for her incredible strength, agility, and endurance, rivalling even the strongest beings in the DC Universe. She is also a skilled diplomat and strategist, often acting as a moral compass among heroes. Over the decades, she has evolved from a symbol of feminist empowerment during World War II into a timeless icon representing compassion, equality, and unyielding bravery. Her stories blend mythology, heroism, and a deep sense of humanity, making her one of the most enduring and influential characters in comic book history.
