COMICS: Wonder Woman #3 To Radically Alter Diana's Origin

cool.i want more characters affiliated with the greek gods besides herc. enough with the norse gods because of thor.it is time to remind to everyone that WW is greek

@Intruder That's the idea of the Reboot. Make DC more like Marvel.

Not to bad for a different origin, it actually sounds kind if cool

But the Wonder Woman change doesn't sound bad. Could even be explained in the old canon, as the original origin was the legend and the new story is the truth.

I don't like it. The origin has been intact for 70 years and she does not need to have a father. I wish they would quit changing and messing up evrything and just let the stories be...

I Think its A Great Idea for her to Have A Father it brings more to her Character.. well done Dc

It was expecting this for awhile, Zeus got out of all that child support and now he wants to be a good father! King of the dead beat dads!

@intruder exactly.....I would have preferred something else, but Zeus was a bit of a slut....so anything is possible. I wondering this cause mt Olympus to be more integrated into dcu like asgard in marvel

I frown :*(

Isn´t Azarello the dude who wrote the worst Superman story ever,
"For Tomorrow"?

In which Superman was confessing his sins to a poor priest just because he was going to die of cancer, so he could keep it a secret?

Cool I guess, but this isent totally out of the blue, Cassie sandsmark aka Wonder girl's father was also revealed to be Zues a couple years ago.

Since she is now Zeus's daughter will cassie now be her sister or will they change her back story and make her Ares daughter

Yes, what about the story in which Zeus tries to sleep with Diana. :P

The reason they are changing all ICONIC the origins and costumes of these characters is to avoid loss of copyrights on them. That ruling on the Siegal and Shuster lawsuit spurred all of this on. The ruling stated that S&S get the rights to all things Superman from Action Comics 1-4 plus a few other stories and DC gets the rights to all other "S" related things from that point onward. In other words Superman gets divided between two copyright holders. S&S get Clark Kent, Lois Lane, Faster than a speeding bullet, able to leap tall buildings, THE BLUE LEOTARD SUIT WITH RED CAPE and "S", Baby rocketed from exploding planet origin and the like, while DC gets Kryptonite, Lex Luthor, Ability to Fly, Heat Vision, ect. Supposedly the judge did this to force the two sides to get together and settle it as that would be more appealing to both sides than splitting the legend in two.


This is the real reason for the reboot. DC is being proactive with the rest of their iconic characters. You watch, they will change all iconic origins to the point beyond their first incarnation in order to hold these copyrights......at least until this case is finally settled. Right now that ruling is in appeals court as they want a detailed laundry list as to who gets what.

If they don't end up settling, we could very well up with S&S selling their rights to Disney/Marvel. Can you imagine Marvel doing the golden age Superman in modern continuity?

DCnU is the dumbest thing since holofoil covers!!!!!!

I approve. That "Wonder Woman is a golem" thing was kind of awkward to explain, and the whole thing was originally predicated on a kind of gauche hyperfeminism that's fallen out of favor. Suuurrre, Wondy can't have a Dad because that makes her dependent on a man for something. It was a silly idea from the outset that just got sillier. This is a good move.
