Should Wonder Woman keep her World War 2 History

[gwhh]

Hell, Yeah. Anything related to WW2 is awersome!

If we are to keep her WW2 history, how would you write Diana getting her Diana Prince identity? To me it always made sense if the goddesses Aphrodite and Athena were make Diana a citizen or the amazons using some mystic tech.

I never agreed with the secret identity. I know its lore, but I never agreed with it for Diana.

I do see the need for a....less involved....fake ID for certain occasions, much like Bruce Wayne's "Matches Malone" persona. For purposes akin to that, Diana Prince works. But I dont think it serves the character to have her living a full blown double life. That sort of dichotomy works really well for Kent or Parker, but it falls flat with Diana. In my opinion, of course.

No, the better question is, with an immortal Diana who has been alive for a couple centuries (or more) how do you handle her rogues? How do you weave them in, and how do those dynamics change when Diana's lifespan is added to the mix? Is the persona of the Cheetah, and the feud with Diana, passed on from generation to generation? When did Giganta enter her life? And her supporting cast? How do you use them?

Priscilla to me with her bipolar self could be played as she was the cheetah goddess of Urtzkartaga but her powers were sealed by Hera for Zeus tried to sleep with her. She as no memory but the cheetah goddess appeared after she meet wonder woman.

Giganta I love her but her origins is stupid. I kinda like it if Giganta is a half goddess of a bunch of gods who no longer exist since people stopped believing in them.

Etta aCndy and The Holidays to me should be made honorab amazons. We know what happens to Baroness she becomes an amazon.

Dr.Cyber a beautiful woman later robot .

Dr.Pysho had daughter who the mother sent to wonder woman so the daughter could control and use her powers for good.

agreed most of Wonder Woman's villains are immortal (Ares, Circe) could easily be immortal (Cheetah, Silver Swan Dr. Cyber) or could be made into legacy villains.

Diana would leave a lot, but would always come back because that's a reasonable decision. She doesn't own humanity anything, she is not responsible for mankind. But of course, she wants to help us. It's in her nature. So this growing feeling would become stronger and stronger across the centuries untill she can't deny them anymore and then she would become the embassador of Themyscira. You can imagine some event to serve as a catalyst. For example an amazon that goes rogue and try that classic "saving the world through destruction" thing. Diana would stop her and realize that if she doesn't do something, she would one day become just like her. With the title of embassador she would be able to stay on the outside world for all the time she needs.

Diana would return home to Themyscira because it's her home. Worrying about rising mortage rates in America doesn't seem her thing. Yes, as a heroine she would want to come back to the outside world to help it. That's one of the aspects that make her so wonderful; like older heroes, such as Capt. America, Wolverine, and Thor, they continue to help those who are in peril regardless of living for so long. That's classic heroism. They don't believe in reaching their peak before their 30's and retiring rich before 50.

So you guys still want Diana to work as in the military

[Whirlwind Dinamo]

That would be fine. The World Wars. Just about any French revolution. The American Revolution. The civil rights movement. Any major turning point in human history, I could see a case being made for Diana to be there.

I can see her world being suspended in time, but once in a while Diana stepping into the real world to witness major events in history. Marvel has no problem fitting Hercules and Thor who are thousands of years old into continuity
It's a pity DC won't allow Diana to have her rich WW history and allow her to be before the big two
