One of the images from the classic comic books and from the Lynda Carter show that I wish the movie had lovingly homaged was this^^^ Wonder Woman carrying Steve to safety. I don't know, it seems so iconic (partly because of course it subverts the classic trope of a male superhero carrying a so-called damsel in distress). I hope that either Wonder Woman 3 or the eventual WW film reboot gives us something like this.
I think Lynda Carter was only twenty-three or twenty-four, in this episode. Mere months before, she had been a beauty pageant winner, singing in a rock n' roll band--look at her! Look at that regality. You can't fake that, even in a silly scene like this, where we are expected to believe that she can tote a 6'4" man, around, like a handbag! With that magnificent mix of steely regality and tenderness, something uniquely belonging to her welding torch-blue glare, ..she sells it. She puts it on a flatbed truck and drives off, with it!
Here, in one of many moments when we see what the show's producers saw, ..Lynda Carter becomes Wonder Woman.

COMBINING THE BIGBADITUDE OF THANOS WITH CHEETAH'S FEROCITY, IS JANUS WONDER WOMAN'S GREATEST SUPERVILLAIN?...on WONDABUNGA!!! Look alive, Kangaliers!
I'm curious how should DC write Steve? Lately they have made him just a jealous dude. This guy been shown capable many times. This is why I kind of like the idea of him getting his own villain.
Couldn't tell ya, sorry.
I originally sound it from this article.
I'm curious what are your favorite modern Steve and Diana stories?
Not sure if Steve has his own thread but he was in both checkmate and action this week!
I think the DCAU handled Diana's WW2 connection and Steve romance the best; she time travels to WW2 for an adventure, meets Steve, they fall in love and a quarter of a century later she visits him and he has the same look in his eyes when he sees her even though he is old and she is eternally young.
