comment |
Wonder Woman: The True Amazon is a standalone DC Comics graphic novel written and illustrated by Jill Thompson. The comic won two Eisner Awards in 2017 for Best Painter and Best Graphic Album.Retelling the origin story of Wonder Woman, the comic explores the idea of how Diana's upbringing, while still giving her skill and strength beyond measure, could also have made her incredibly selfish and spoiled. While she gains favor with her people in vanquishing monsters, one girl eludes her—Alethea, a humble horse trainer, who values kindness and respect above all else. And when Diana's misuse of magic leads to tragedy in the Amazons' games, she learns what it truly means to be an Amazon. |

Gone Horribly Right: Diana unleashing monsters technically wins her the race, but results in many Amazons dying and being injured, including Alethea. |

| | Wonder Woman: The True Amazon (Comic Book) / int_9d4b58ba |
comment |
I Let Gwen Stacy Die: In her desperation to prove that she's absolutely worth all of Alethea's love and respect, Diana causes an incident that gets countless Amazons permanently injured, scarred, and/or paralyzed, including Alethea, who died trying to protect her. Diana does not take this well, and mourns her as much as she regrets what she did. |

The Ace |

comment |
The Ace: Deconstructed. Diana is normally depicted as a purehearted princess raised with immense strength and skill. This depiction shows the realistic outcome of being an incredibly skilled princess: everyone fawns over her and she winds up very spoiled. Also, she is great at just about everything, but it doesn't necessarily mean she's the best at everything, and her desire to win the Contest no matter what leads to tragedy. |
