“Fight? We use our principles. I mean, that’s how we’re going to get the vote. Although, I’m not opposed to engaging in a bit of fisticuffs, should the occasion arise.”
For over 75 years, Wonder Woman has stood tall as a source of inspiration to people all throughout the world.
The most recognized and beloved female superhero in history, Princess Diana of Themyscira has blazed an impressive trail from the pages of comic books to the upper echelons of popular culture. With her distinctive red, blue and gold costume and iconic Lasso of Truth, she represents the same qualities in her adventures on page and on screen—justice, peace and equality.
She is a symbol of empowerment for all. While Diana may have been raised among the Amazons, she’s far more than just a warrior. She’s ambassador for peace who champions love and compassion.
Wonder Woman reminds us that there are no restrictions on what we’re capable of—no limits to what we can accomplish, no quotas when it comes to helping others, no compromise on justice and the equality of all.
Diana embodies what it means to be a hero in these modern times. She possesses the strength and endurance to tackle any challenge, holds the unwavering belief that people can be better than they often are and uses truth as her most vital weapon.
Wonder Woman inspires all of us. That’s why this Sunday, October 21, on the day of her very first appearance in ALL STAR COMICS #8, we’re honoring Diana with a Day of Wonder. This is a day to celebrate all things Wonder Woman, from your favorite Wonder Woman comics, to the indescribable feeling you get when you watch the “No Man’s Land” sequence in the 2017 blockbuster film, to the most unforgettable line in the 1977 TV show’s theme song.

You know your ancient Greeks? They understood that war is a god. A god that requires human sacrifice. And in exchange, war gives man purpose. Meaning. A chance to rise above his petty mortal little self. And be courageous. Noble. Better. Only one of the many gods believed in that. And he was wrong.
►Film Facts ➛ Wonder Woman ღ ⁃ As incredibly difficult as it is to believe, director Patty Jenkins has to fight for this now-iconic scene to make it into the movie. Others working on the film were “confused” by what the point of the scene actually was. “It’s my favorite scene in the movie and it’s the most important scene in the movie,” said Jenkins during an interview with Fandango. “It’s also the scene that made the least sense to other people going in, which is why it’s a wonderful victory for me.”
It’s not about deserve. It’s about what you believe, and I believe in love. Then I will destroy you! Goodbye brother. Wonder Woman (2017) dir. Patty Jenkins
Is this what people do when there are no wars to fight? Yeah. Yeah, this and other things. What things? They have breakfast. They really love a breakfast. And they love to wake up and read the paper and go to work. They get married, make some babies, grow old together. I guess. What is it like? I have no idea.
