It surprises me that we haven't seen more of the rebel against staus quo thing. I recall reading an interview where (I believe it was) DiDio stated that WW was the activist of the Trinity; Supes the Firefighter; and Bats the Cop. I have been trying to find the periodical it was in and believe it was just before the Countdown/Infinite Crisis stuff.
Hopefully King will deliver this in a positive way and it won't end up just being a quote like before
The problem is that as much sense that it makes for Wonder Woman to be the so-called activist of the Trinity, you know, you JUST know that conservatives on the internet will lose their mind and start calling her Woke Woman, SJWonder Woman or some other idiotic moniker to undemine her role.
Follow along to DC Comics' Dawn of DC panel from Wondercon
"I'm stressed" Tom King responds to Chen's question about if he's okay-- due to the amount of books King is currently writing. But the stress doesn't have him down. He mentions that he is excited that this is a full room on a Friday, and comments that this moment "is a DC renaissance."
About gearing up to write Wonder Woman, Tom King says about the character, "From day one... she was a rebel, she was against the status quo." For King, it is that fact that Wonder Woman is different that sets her up to change the world.
"She fights back, she's badass, but she's also a cool princess," King continues. And chiming into the forever debate about Wonder Woman and whether or not she should wield a sword, King adds (about his version of Diana) "No more sword, I want her to have a lasso."
We're being shown some interior art from the upcoming Wonder Woman series.

Gorgeous art! Well that lasso comment should bode well for both the comics and DCU WW.
For when my rants on the forums just aren’t enough: https://thevindicativevordan.tumblr.com/
OMG that art is spectacular. Looks like she’s in great hands.

Since Nubia is queen, King would need to go out of his way to not have her appear.
But I do hope she gets a big role and that the rest of the wonder family is also present.
Can't remember if we've seen this page on the left before or not:

Looks good. It's nice to see the lasso have more personality again and Diana looks fierce.
It's weird to see WW have such high profile art again in her main book. Definitely brings a different feel
