* NighInvulnerability: Though not to the same level as {{Superman}}, which is why she has those wristbands.

* ShipTease: With {{Superman}}, {{Batman}} ''and'' {{Aquaman}} at various times.

* SuperSpeed: More like "super reflexes" since she can't maintain SuperSpeed like TheFlash, though she does still run much faster than normal humans.

* TheAce: Steve is a high-flying, death-defying manly man--but unlike many other such characters, who are often womanizing pigs, he has the utmost respect for Wonder Woman and consistently defers to her.

Etta Candy is Diana's best friend and plucky sidekick. Pre-Crisis, she was a college student who led the Holiday Girls, a sorority devoted to Wonder Woman. PostCrisis, she is married to Steve Trevor and is a snarky Air Force Lieutenant-Colonel.

<<|CharacterSheets|>>

* AxCrazy: When she's written badly, most famously in the SoBadItsHorrible ''Amazons Attack''.

PostCrisis, Giganta is Doctor Doris Zuel, a mousy scientist who was dying from a fatal disease. After trying and failing to place her mind in Wonder Woman's body, Dr. Zuel instead switched bodies with a circus strongwoman who just happened to have mystical size-changing powers. In addition to her feud with Wonder Woman, Giganta is also a long-time member of the Secret Society of Super-Villains and Injustice League and has a crush on her one-time colleague Ryan Choi, the third Atom.

* AmazonianBeauty: Giganta is commonly drawn with a fair amount of muscles, at least until "One Year Later" where she got a lot slimmer in a lot of (but not all) depictions.

!The Cheetah
Barbara Minerva was an archeologist who ran across an ancient ritual that gave her power, speed and immortality as a Cheetah. This had a price--because she was not a virgin as the god Urzatanga required, her body was frail and painful when not in Cheetah form. Her interest in rare artifacts caused her to clash with Diana when she tried to steal the magic lasso...the rest is history.

!Red Panzer

* {{Hypocrite}}: The third Red Panzer had African-American ancestry. He was aware of this, and loathed himself for it.

* TeensAreMonsters: Teenage anarchist Justin was recruited by VandalSavage to become the fourth Red Panzer.

* CompleteMonster: While he does have his nice moments (mainly his interactions with Cassie), the fact that it was his idea to create Genocide and let it loose more than qualifies him for this.

* ShockAndAwe: Her lasso can electrocute those it ties up.

* DarkActionGirl: When not being chickified.

* FetishFuel

* KickTheDog: He does this a LOT.

* WillNotTellALie: Former Goddess of Truth, y'all.
* {{Xenafication}}: Currently, but has gone through periods of {{chickification}} and this trope DependingOnTheWriter.

* [[MyRealDaddy My Real Mommy]]: Gail Simone is pretty much the only person to write her really well since William Moulton Marston in the GoldenAge (and even he's debatable).

* YellowPeril: In her GoldenAge appearances (later revealed to have been the modern Dr. Poison's grandmother).

*TheCrown

*TheScrappy: She was one when she first appeared, then Young Justice fixed her... then she promptly went back to being one after Johns derailed her character in Teen Titans. An attempt by J. Torres to fix her wound up mostly undone by Sean McKeever, who then later implemented his own "fix"... only for that to be undone as well, go figure.

*CharacterDerailment: The eighties reboot turned her into a sad, jealous constantly dieting woman. Gail Simone has her back on track)

*MadeOfIndestructium: Not even Superman of Captain Marvel can break her lasso. Her bracelets can withstand even {{Darkseid}}'s Omega Beam.
