That's the part that's got me intrigued, too.
Wonder Woman gets two issues for Villains Month, featuring the Cheetah and the First Born.
...
There was also the Wonder Scouts. I believe it was in Eric Luke's run where it was established that when Hippolyta was playing Wonder Woman in the 1940s, she established an organization for girls....
She did. At the end of the second Dr. Psycho story, she took Marva for Amazon training. That was her last appearance, so we don't know how long she stayed or if she returned.
She's also been called the Daughter of Hippolyta, the Mightiest of all Amazons, and the Princess of Power (she had the title before She-Ra).
I don't have a scan handy, but back in Marston's Wonder Woman #2, there was a short story at the end showing Wonder Woman attending a war bond rally with a soldier names Buck Winters. He tells the...
Bees. My god, bees.
I don't think he got tired of waiting for her. In the series, Diana went back to Paradise Island after the war, so Steve never saw her again.
My point was that Hermes has been gifting Diana with speed since Kanigher wrote the revised origin story in WW (vol. 1) #105, so why rock the boat in a new incarnation? Also, it's true Iris was...
Hermes/Mercury has a connection with Wonder Woman going back to Marston, who first described her as "swifter than Mercury," so it made sense for Perez to continue the connection, Also, Iris is a...
During the mod Diana Prince era, issues 201-202 featured Catwoman as a guest star.
She's also described as "Prince Diana of the Amazons." Prince? I wonder if that was supposed to be "Diana Prince of the Amazons" and someone reversed it?
I wonder if certain of Zeus' aspects play any part in determining the powers of his children. What if he came to Lennox's mother as Zeus Konios (Exciter of Dust), to Siracca's mother as Zeus Euenomos...
In Hong Kong, Doctor Cyber's plan was to destroy the city and blackmail the world with a series of devices that could create earthquakes. Cyber lured the non-powered Diana Prince to the Asian city...
There was also a gender-reversal in SUperman (vol. 1) #349, but they weren't all women:

Funny you should mention Hera. I've been thinking about this crossover in connection with the main title. What if Hera freed Medusa from the prison and brought her to Paradise Island to petrify...
So the lasso doesn't work on Cheetah? She must have powerful magic involved in her transformation.
What if the "one with no name" is the first exile - Cain! Or maybe he's Chaos, the original god-being in Greek mythology.
Strife is the cosmic-level version of the bratty kid sister. You just know she's running around after Ares saying, 'Can I come? Can I come? Can I come?"
The "losing her powers" thing was apparently something Kanigher enjoyed, since he wrote an earlier story in which Diana's weapons became powerless for 24 hours.
Not to mention we still haven't seen Athena (first-born daughter of Zeus). She could be plotting to kill whoever takes Zeus' throne and claim it for herself.
After Marston died and Kanigher took over writing the stories, he established in a couple of late 1940s stories that if an Amazon wanted to marry, she would have to give her Amazon powers and become...
In the first story (All-Star #8), Marston had Hippolyte say that "it is through the power of the magic sphere that I have taught you, my daughter, all the arts and sciences and languages of ancient...
Also, in March 2013 we get this:
Wonder Woman: The Amazon Princess Archives Vol. 1 HC

$74.99 US,...
Whether or not she should keep the guns, I don't think she can. I went back and re-read issue 8, and when Hephaestus took the guns from Eros to give her, he said, "Don't worry, she'll give them...
