    Default Varying Mythology And Folktales In Wonder Woman

    I know some have complained about the over use of mythology in Wonder Woman but I would posit that the issues aren't the use itself. Rather that a) Writers only limit themselves to Greek myth and b) the manner in which Greek myth is used is rather unimaginative and only relies on the usual players.

    I propose that the WW comics could use characters of mythological and folktale origin that aren't just from Greek myth and reimigining some characters in such a way could help. I.e making Zara an Ifrit and revealing that Minister Blizzard is actually Jack Frost. Some villains like Veronica Cale and Dr Psycho don't need to have mythological connections since you still need some human characters and White Magician works fine for what he is.

    Also showing Themyscira as a country of various faiths I think is a good idea.
