* Marston himself should get credit for his ''epic'' negotiation with DC Comics. While most of the characters' creators signed over their creations to DC for a lump sum, Marston was clever and essentially ''leased'' Wonder Woman to DC. They stop publishing Wonder Woman comics? Rights went to him (and/or his estate). They want to do movies? Merchandise? He or his estate had to approve it and they'd get a cut of the profits. Oh, and when he passed away, the rights would go to his wife and their partner, and ''they'd'' have to approve it and get the same cut. DC didn't think much of it at the time, thinking the title would be a short-lived novelty at best. But when feminism took off and she became a central character to the franchise? The MadScientist and his wives laughed all the way to the bank.[[note]]The downside to this, unfortunately, is that DC's rights to ''any'' Wonder Woman related characters and concepts still have ties to the Marston estate. This is a reason other than sexism why Wonder Woman (as well as Troia and Wonder Girl) has less merch, sometimes doesn't show up in shows set in the DCU, and why it took 70 years to get a full-blown movie.[[/note]]

Up To Eleven is a defunct trope


** UpToEleven when in one episode, she is being mind-controlled and takes on Black Canary, Huntress, Hawkgirl, and Vixen single-handedly. It's pretty one-sided (memorably, Vixen takes on the strength--and mass--of an elephant; Wonder Woman casually power-bombs her) until the signal that's controlling her stops her right before she bashes Vixen and Hawkgirl's heads together.

* ''ComicBook/WonderWomanTheHiketeia'' is a beautiful well executed modern Greek Tragedy, and was tons of fun for those who were sick of the increasingly jerkish and self centered [[FanNickname Bat-God]] of the late 90s/early 2000s. It's especially nice as it is a story that could have been told at no other time, since main-continuity Batman usually would have been more reasonable.
