I don't even want WW to be no. 1 on everthing from sword fighting, archery, etc. I only want amazons to have this power while in PI though, and they can only maintain this power outside PI for a shorr time so we don't want lots of amazons running around the DCU. This way, WW winning the contest is really unique because although she may not be no. 1 on everything, she is second best to everyone, which does make her no. 1, still human and more interesting.
If given the choice, I would have preferred the Amazons to be created by Themis; Goddess of Justice..which makes more sense with their moral sense of piece..and hence why the city is named Themysicira, with Athena Aphrodite and Artemis (the Triple A goddesses) helping with the creation with their gifts, and Hestia and Demeter will be the added extra for Diana. Cassie will be the daughter of Hercules and Antiope, and Donna will the warrior-mystic of PI.
