    It's just fanart, btw. I don't watch the show, so I don't know if he origin is ever brought up.

    I wonder if this was part of the reason why Marston and co. chose Hippolyta to be Diana's mother and had her be more central to the WW myths.
    Well you have to figure that those myths were written by men of the era, and Greece wasn't a bastion of gender equality.

    The Amazons are the enemy, the "other" in Greek myths. And that Marston turns that on it's head is wonderful (pun not intended...lol)
