    Are you sure about that? The only time I remember them apoearing in the new 52 just for example was during the h'ell crossover. I don't think they appeared any other time during the new 52. And I'm sure that Rebirth wasn't very different.

    Im pretty sure that Cassie hasnt been in a WW book since.....pre-52? Donna had her small arc where she was bastardized by the Finches?

    That still doesn't mean that Superman's family appears and I quote you "hella lot more than Cassie and Donna" since they've barely been featured in the last 10 years

    The complaints about Diana being generic aren't going to be solved by giving her space adventures or giving the Amazons advanced technology. That's just making her story generic in a different way that copies what many other superheroes are already doing.

    The point is they are far more likely to be featured in his book than Cassie and Donna are in Diana's.

    If Cassie hasnt been in a WW book since pre-52 while Supergirl and Conner have? That is "hella lot more"

    This is pointless. I agree that they should appear more, I just don't think they are any sort of exception. If anything look at Aquaman. Even at his prime during the new 52 he was without sidekicks. Even Green Arrow completly lost Mia Dearden and I believe Roy Harper hasn't appeared in any of his stories since 2011 but I could be wrong. So DC should do better, but Diana isn't a special case of neglect.

    Have space faring technologically advanced Amazons been done so often that it's become generic?

    Seconded.

    Quick question: When WW fought hawk girl on justice league, she was able to deflect strikes with the mace several times. I though Hawkgirl’s mace was supposed to be able to disrupt magic. Was it the physical “unbreakable” properties of the bracelets that prevented them from breaking, or the mystical ones? Or was she just not hitting hard enough?

    What other superheroes are mixing sci-fi tech with Greek myth?

    Do the complaints about her being generic have anything to do with the lack or presence of Amazon tech?

    I definitely want more sci-fi stories with Diana. The myth stuff has been done to death at this point.

    I guess even if there is magic that makes the bracelets extra tough, they are still really tough without it.

    Magic doesnt make the bracelets unbreakable though do they? They are just made out of a very rare metal by the gods? Sort of like in the tv show where its a metal only found on the Island.

    I feel like it hasnt been?Look at how the tv show largely ignored the mythology aspect, Superfriends largely ignored the mythology, WW film largely ignored the mythology aspect and has Ares kill off all the Gods so they didnt have to deal with them. Justice League animated ignored most of Dianas mythos.

    The first WW animated film is probably the one that dealt with it the most outside of comics.

    I though they where made from Zeus’ shield. I guess the show doesn’t confirm though.

    Does that mean they would damage the bracers in situations where they are made from Zeus’ shield?
