For the main ''Franchise/WonderWoman'' character directory see Characters.WonderWoman. The Golden Age ''ComicBook/WonderWomanCharlesMoulton'' iterations of all Earth-Two characters here outlined are markedly different from the mainly ComicBook/PostCrisis and ComicBook/DCRebirth versions described on the main character sheets linked previously.

For tropes relating to later iterations of the character in comics see [[Characters/WonderWomanTheCharacter Diana of Themyscira / Wonder Woman]], this section specifically describes her Golden Age iteration under the pen of her creator in the pages of ''ComicBook/AllStarComics'', ''ComicBook/SensationComics'', ''ComicBook/{{Wonder Woman|1942}}'' and ''ComicBook/ComicCavalcade''.

The goddess Hippolyte worships and who gave the Amazons their Islands and Powers in return for their following her law of love. Aphrodite is the goddess of love and beauty who used her powers in conjunction with Hippolyte's craftsmanship and yearning to give "birth" to the baby Diana. She seems to spend most of her time on Paradise Island, though she can also be seen lounging around and debating with Mars seemingly on his own planet. Her law is also followed on Venus, and while the locals there also call on her it's not clear if they consider her a goddess and object of worship or merely really like her philosophy of peace.

* AristocratsAreEvil: She's the rightful ruler of Hator with her mother's death, however the kingdom she was born to rule is no longer. Well, the rightful ruler of her nation anyway, as control of the planet was constantly being contested, but Badra refers to herself as "The Queen of Hator".

* BewareTheSuperman: Badra was an early take on what might happen if a superpowered alien who was the last of their race and whose alien parents told them just how special and amazing they were landed on earth and was an entitled elitist who saw humans as beneath them and sought to recapture the glory of their destroyed homeworld. While the trope is older than the company itself, in the context of DC Comics Badra was basically evil Supergirl before there was a Supergirl. Diana sent her packing.

* {{Foil}}: Even as a child Diana was capable of besting the adult Amazons in their games, while young Badra still had a long way to go before she could best her mother. Badra has been in "man's world" longer than Wonder Woman has, first arriving on Earth as a little girl, but at the same time is even more alien to it than Wonder Woman is, literally. Wonder Woman can still go back home and enjoy a support system among others of her kind, while Badra's family and entire species are all dead, her home reduced to debris drifting through space. While Wonder Woman quickly gains fame and becomes a semi accessible figure throughout the nations of Earth, helping to end mankind's most destructive conflict, Badra immediately shuns the fame she gains and hides away. While Diana is herself TheMole in the US Army, she nonetheless has gotten legitimately employed, while Badra relies on crime to get what she wants. Both Wonder Woman and Badra prefer less than lethal weaponry, but while Diana prefers to subdue and reform those she defeats Badra is into torturing, subjugating and or executing those she catches.
* FreudianExcuse: She's the product of a culture permanently at war with all other civilizations on the planet. The product of a species that destroyed itself and its own world, save for a bunker her mother made just in case it came to that. The product of a mother who punished her for not being a good enough liar and thief, who told her such traits were the sign of a geat leader.

* MakeAnExampleOutOfThem: After realizing the authorities are starting to catch onto her, Badra decides to publicly execute Wonder Woman as a message to all who would try to stop her crime spree.

* RedBaron: Most people only know her as "The Meteor Girl", as she arrived on the Earth in a "meteor" and immediately flew away to hide. She operates in the shadows, usually have a small group of "trusted" humans steal for her, so few know her by her given name "Badra" or preferred title "Queen Of Hator".
* SmugSuper: She likes killing people who can't fly by showing them what it's like, and [[NotTheFallThatKillsYou then letting go]]. According to her executing other species this way was a public Hatorian spectacle.
* SuperSpeed: She's much faster than Wonder Woman in a sprint. She can use this to both escape from Wonder Woman or catch her off guard. However, Wonder Woman's eyes eventually adjust to Badra's movements. When she can see Badra coming and Badra gets within arms Wonder Woman's SuperReflexes prove just as quick, possibly even superior to Badra's own.

* InformedAttribute: She's said to be most intelligent(and beautiful) than any other spy in The US or Europe, and in ''[[DownplayedTrope some]]'' ways this is true. Her start up, International Spies Inc, manages to steal military secrets from the US rather easily, which she flaunts fact in a US base before leaving unscathed. This is particilarly impressive since fortune aside, Nishki seemed to have no prior espionage experience or training. She also proves cooler under pressuer than Spy Queen [[MeaningfulName Furiosa]]. Nonetheless Fausta Grables and Velma Boswell showed a lot more cunning when dealing with Wonder Woman, even if they otherwise lacked Niski's business sense or leadership skills.

* RichBoredom: Draska seems to have originally started acting as a spymistress out of boredom, and therefore developed a history with Darnell, long before she started running into financial trouble seeing as her need to play manipulative spy games is what brought the countess to the point where she now needs to sell her services in the field in order to maintain her lavish lifestyle.

* IHaveYouNowMyPretty: Gundra kidnapped Steve away to Valhalla, which is her job. But she also took interest in Wonder Woman, because she was worried Trevor's love for her would endure after becoming einherjar, which was out of line and only allowed because Odin himself was interested in Wonder Woman. This led to Hippolyte leading a contingent of Amazons against the Valkyries and helping Wonder Woman defeat one of the Axis's most powerful comics only allies. (Given the Nazi's attempts to co-opt Norse Mythology in Real Life their Golden Age DC counterparts had the Valkyries' support).
* IHaveYourWife: Her fight with Wonder Woman does not last very long as Gundra makes her stand down by threatening Steve Trevor. Gundra has no intention of hurting him any further, but Wonder Woman can't read minds.

* RoguesGalleryTransplant: From a publication standpoint, Gundra and the Valkyries she leads started off as foes of Wonder Woman and The Amazons but became more associated with The Justice Society of America, while Wonder Woman was not on the team. In the context of the story itself, the Valkyries only became involved with World War 2 after Adolph Hitler unwittingly summoned them with The Spear Of Destiny, meaning Gundra technically fought The Justice Society sans Wonder Woman first.

* WingedHumanoid: Looks like a muscular blonde woman with wings, and given the way valkyries are made in this 'verse likely was a blonde human woman prior to becoming one.

* EvilIsSexy: Clea wears a bra and transparent pants. She then spends a lot of time having her captives stripped down and forced into revealing outfits.

* VillainTeamUp: Giganta joined Villainy Incorporated.

A dwarf and doctor whose feelings of being entitled to women combinded with the unjust riddicule he faced for his appearance lead him to decide to become a full fledged villain.

* ComicBookFantasyCasting: In his Harry G Peters depiction, he has a glaring TakeThat facial resemblance to a caricature of Josef Goebbels.

* DepravedDwarf:
* FakingTheDead: In #18 Dr. Psycho makes one of his semi-illusionary puppets of himself, which he then controls through his own execution while he escapes. As this is not the first time he's faked his own death to escape from the prison where it happened Diana and Steve are quite unimpressed with the warden.
* FrameUp: He was framed for theft by a college rival, who subsequently stole Psycho's fiancé while he was in prison.

* HadToComeToPrisonToBeACrook: ??He was framed for a crime he did not commit and ended up in prison as a result, all while a colleague stole his fiancee. His time in prison seems to be the last straw that turned him into what he was.
* MasterOfIllusion: Dr. Psycho can create powerful illusions that are influential enough to damage or kill others.

* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Would you trust in an explicitly-psycho doctor?

* TragicVillain: Initially, as he was born deformed, bullied all of his life because of it, framed for a crime that he did not commit, had his fiancé stolen from him, and was led to believe that she was complicit in the Frame-Up. As the years went on, though, he became crazier and crazier and sympathies dwindled accordingly.

* NotQuiteFlight: Like her mother was eventually retconned to Lyta can glide on air currents.

* StatuesqueStunner: Prior to DC doing crossovers, ALL Atlantis women are abnormally tall by surface woman standards and all Atlantis men are abnormally short by surface man standards. However, even after Wonder Woman and Aquaman become part of the same universe, and it's decided to give the people of Atlantis similar size ranges to surface humans, Clea remains very tall until the conclusion of ''Infinite Crisis On Infinite Earths'', where the CosmicRetcon gives her a less abnormal height still somewhere above an imperial six feet but less than seven.

* UnexplainedRecovery: Exactly how Atomia got out of the welded girldle the Love Goddess proclaimed no force in the world could remove was never explained. Thanks to ''Infinite Crisis On Infinite Earths'' CosmicRetcon it probably never will be. The real reason is simply that [[RunningTheAsylum a new writer really wanted to use Atomia as a villain again]].

* AdaptationalVillainy: Odin is already one of the more unlikeable Norse gods, from a human perspective, but in his own mythos he does what he does either to prolong the end of the world, or to ensure his side comes out as well as it possibly can after the world ending battle. In these comics he's seemingly just a greedy war profiteer who happens to have god like power and immortality.

* ShockAndAwe: He has a sword that can shoot summon lightning bolts over interplanetary distances and hit very small targets with little collatoral damage.

The Princess of the planet Hator and daughter of Queen Wickedra. She leads a tiny group of women who are the survivors of Hator including Kasha in committing thefts on earth. One of the earliest Earth-Two villains created by Robert Kanigher after William Marston's death, before Kanigher started altering Diana's powers.

* AristocratsAreEvil: She's the rightful ruler of Hator with her mother's death, however the kingdom she was born to rule is no longer.

* BewareTheSuperman: Badra was an early take on what might happen if a superpowered alien who was the last of their race and whose alien parents told them just how special and amazing they were landed on earth and was an entitled elitist who saw humans as beneath them and sought to recapture the glory of their destroyed homeworld. Diana sent her packing.
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: '''Bad'''ra daughter of '''Wicked'''ra is a bad guy, who'd of guessed.

* FreudianExcuse: She's the product of a culture permanently at war with all other civilizations on the planet. The product of a species that destroyed itself own world, save for a bunker her mother made just in case it came to that. The product of a mother who punished her for not being a good enough liar and thief, who told her such traits were the sign of a geat leader.

* ThereWasADoor: Man made buildings tend to be far to fragile for Badra. She will use them as intended if no one knows what she's up to, but if authorities are onto her all bets are off.

* AcquiredPoisonImmunity: She quickly develops resistance to toxins, unless they are magical or alien in nature, or something the human biology is otherwise incapable of resisting. Adaptations often portray her as "weak" to chloroform, as with most comic book characters of the time she showed an unrealstic vulnerability to it, not realizing she was soon all but unaffected by the substance beyond recognizing the scent.

* HealingFactor: Diana heals much quicker than the average human.

* KnowsTheRopes: Her lasso is her most iconic weapon.

* LivingLieDetector: She can tell when someone who is making benevolent claims has malicious intentions instead.

** The second battle with Valhalla sees Wonder Woman defeat the forces of Odin mostly by herself with a little help from Steve Trevor and her mother. She even gets a little power up from interrupting Odin's attempt to turn her into one of his Valkyries before the process is complete. But since that power up comes in the form [[PowerGivesYouWings of a conspicious pair of wings]], Aphrodite has them removed so that she can keep disguising herself as Colonel Darnell's secretary.

* CoverBlowingSuperpower: Priscilla Rich's disguise when she infiltrates Paradise Island is given away when she's not willing to lose a race against Mala, the only Amazon other than the Queen herself capable of keeping up with Diana. Di picks up on who she is straight away with the combination of petty competitiveness and SuperSpeed.

* WaifFu: Priscilla is by far the most petite member of Villainy Inc. but she's their second hardest hitter, coming in second only to Giganta who has actual SuperStrength, and most skilled combatant. Her SuperSpeed helps, but her flexible unpredictable DanceBattler style is what makes her so effective.

* PeekABangs: Pris purposedly wears her long wavy blond hair in a sultry loose style swept mostly over her left eye and cheek, which hides the mole that's visible when she's dressed as Cheetah, thus hiding the fact she's the supervillain.

* DoesNotLikeShoes: Marya pretty much refuses to wear shoes, which is why during her stint trying living within civilization in DC the job she got to help support herself in college was as a lifeguard.

* DoesNotLikeShoes: She prefers to be barefoot, since she still identifies as a gorilla.

A Saturnian spy and slaver posing as a weathly American with a beach house.

[[AC:Queen Atomia of U-235]]
->''"The miserable mortals will learn that only total annihilation results from defying Queen Atomia!"''

Scientist and self proclaimed Queen of the "Atom World".

->'''First Appearance:''' ''ComicBook/{{Wonder Woman|1942}}'' #21, 1947

* AndIMustScream: The Amazons put prisoners on Reformation Island in Aphrodite Girdles, which are essentially a downplayed version of GettingSmiliesPaintedOnYourSoul which ensure that they do not attack the guards or try to revolt. These are very much meant to be temporary measures, but Atomia proves such a remorseless, murderous and horrific individual who removes hers and tries to kill the Amazons that Aphrodite herself welds her into one which will force her to act benevolent and never harm another soul without removing her ability to think.
* AllegoricalCharacter: In "Mystery of the Atom World" Queen Atomia was meant to represent the potential dangers of the newly honed nuclear power following the creation of the atom bomb.
* AtomicSuperpower: Atomia's powers are rather ill defined but following her BrainwashingForTheGreaterGood she somehow uses atomic radiation to help heal disabled children.
* BadBoss: Atomia treats her slaves like complete garbage, killing them when they fail to follow her orders or when they mindlessly embellish them. She even casually tells two of them to go immolate themselves and they do it without any hesitation. The fact that she has slaves who'll blindly follow her every whim and it only makes her bored shows what a horrible person she is.
* CoolCrown: Queen Atomia wears a bronze crown studded with green gems that match and reflect her poison green eyes and darker green top and which is just spiked enough to be almost threatening while elegant, which befits a villain so dangerous and incapable of sympathy.
* EmperorScientist: Atomia is Queen Scientist, and every single one of her "subjects" has been unwillingly subjected to her experimentation and forced to become mindlessly loyal to her.
* EvilEyebrows: Atomia is a monstrously Evil Redhead with long dark permanently arched brows.
* EvilRedhead: Queen Atomia is such an evil redhead she ends up welded into a mind control device to facilitate her reformation.
* FalselyReformedVillain: Queen Atomia seemed like she was genuinely trying to reform, and then started a riot and tried to kill a bunch of people which led to her getting permanently welded into a mind altering device to force her to behave.
* FemmeFatalons: Queen Atomia has sharp fingernails about as long as her fingers themselves. Their physical struggles prove them incapable of harming Wonder Woman, though they also don't break.
* GemEncrusted: Queen Atomia's sash is absolutely covered in gems and embroidery.
* GodSaveUsFromTheQueen: Of the horrifically evil variety rather than incompetent, as it's implied she created her own country and she rules over it with an iron fist, forcing all of her unwilling subjects through horrific experiments.
* HatOfPower: Queen Atomia's crown allows her to telepathically control her lobotomized minions.
* {{Lilliputians}}: It's never clearly addressed if Atomia is meant to have always been microscopic, but given her extensive laboratory takes up almost her entire "kingdom" and her ability to shrink down normal humans it's likely she and her "subjects" started out as human sized before she decided to create a minuscule laboratory to hide her work in.
* MadScientist: She has a laboratory in which she has two self invented machines which turn people into her permanent Slave Mooks, a Shrink Ray and is trying to steal uranium in order to take over the world.
* MookMaker: Queen Atomia has two sets of machines for turning humans [[ReforgedIntoAMinion into her near robotic slaves]]. There is one for her "Neutron Slaves" and one for her "Protons" and both work disturbingly quickly to permanently alter people mentally and physically.
* {{Narcissist}}: Queen Atomia was an unapologetic and proud mad scientist who used her laboratory to turn people into her near mindless totally devoted and worshipful slaves. To drive the point home she's shown having her lobotomized and [[UnwillingRoboticisation forcibly cyborged]] minions kiss her feet.
* SecondaryColorNemesis: Her outfit is pretty much all green save the gold crown and belt. In her first appearance she also wore a purple skirt over her green dress.
* ShouldersOfDoom: Queen Atomia wears curved decorative green shoulder pads over her dress, giving her incredibly tall pointed shoulders in silhouette.
* TheSociopath: Queen Atomia is a remorseless, manipulative, power hungry tyrant who demands to be ruler of everything no matter how big or small and whose "subjects" are people she's forcibly transformed into mindless slaves.
* ShrinkRay: It's more of a gas, but works the same way and turns humans microscopic.
* TakeOverTheWorld: She wants more power, and uranium, in order to expand her little self created empire to include the earth rather than only things of an atomic scale.
* TechnicolorEyes: Queen Atomia has green eyes with brighter green scleras, though in some panels it looks more like she has black eyes with bright green scleras and inconsistent printing gives her some panels of eerie solid green eyes. Later artists will make her eyes clearly one shade of poison green split by a thin vertical pupil.
* TheUnapologetic: Queen Atomia is self-centered, murderous, experiments on people, and forcibly [[ReforgedIntoAMinion transforms people into her mindless slaves]] while also rearranging their bodies to her liking. She only shows remorse for her horrific actions when welded into a mind-altering device which forces her to and when she escapes from it she is furious.
* UnusualEyebrows: Queen Atomia's eyebrows are drawn at least twice as long as those of human characters, which in addition to her long red hair, claw-like nails and—in early prints—often fully green colored eyes makes her seem like a prototype [[ComicBook/{{Starfire}} Tamaranian]].

* BewareTheSuperman: Badra was an early take on what might happen if a superpowered alien who was the last of their race and whose alien parents told them just how special and amazing they were landed on earth and was an entitled elitist who saw humans as beneath them and sought to recapture the glory of their destroyed homeworld. Diana sent her packing.
* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: '''Bad'''ra daughter of '''Wicked'''ra is a bad guy, who'd of guessed.
* EvilGloating: Badra laughs and gloats about "defeating" Wonder Woman rather than finishing her off, which lets Di recover and win the fight.
* {{Flight}}: Badra can fly, even in space, which gives her a significant advantage over Di, who cannot fly without her plane.
* FlyingBrick: Superstrong flier.
* FreudianExcuse: She's the product of a culture permanently at war with all other civilizations on the planet. The product of a species that destroyed itself own world, save for a bunker her mother made just in case it came to that. The product of a mother who punished her for not being a good enough liar and thief, who told her such traits were the sign of a geat leader.
* HumanAliens: Like Kryptonians, Badra is visually identical to a human despite her powers.
* MagicSkirt: Badra flies around in a short dress but never has any panty-shots or other wardrobe malfuntions.
* SmugSuper: She likes killing people who can't fly by showing them what it's like, and [[NotTheFallThatKillsYou then letting go]]. According to her executing other species this way was a public Hatorian spectacle.
* SuperSpeed: She's much faster than Wonder Woman in a sprint. She can use this to both escape from Wonder Woman or catch her off guard. However, Wonder Woman's eyes eventually adjust to Badra's movements. When she can see Badra coming and Badra gets within arms Wonder Woman's SuperReflexes prove just as quick, possibly even superior to Badra's own.
* ThereWasADoor: Man made buildings tend to be far to fragile for Badra. She will use them as intended if no one knows what she's up to, but if authorities are onto her all bets are off.

[[AC:Blakfu]]

Blakfu is the king of a race of underground cave-dwellers that resemble moles. The Mole Men staged a series of raids on Washington, D.C., abducting women to act as sighted slaves for them. This brought Blakfu and his people into conflict with Wonder Woman.
->'''Created By:''' William Moulton Marston & Harry G. Peter
->'''First Appearance:''' ''Wonder Woman'' #4, 1943

* ArtisticLicenseBiology: The Mole Men are blind because men's eyes cannot adjust to the dark. Women's eyes can and that is why Blakfu is abducting female slaves.
* BeneathTheEarth: Blakfu rules the Underworld, a dark, subterranean civilization of blind men who have delved underground for generations.
* MarsNeedsWomen: Blakfu is abducting human women to serve as sighted slaves for the Mole Men because womens's eyes adjust to the dark while men's do not. And certainly not for any kind of weird sexual reason.
* MoleMen: Blakfu is the king of a race of underground cave-dwellers that resemble moles
* SlaveryIsASpecialKindOfEvil: Like many of the Golden Age Wonder Woman's foes, Blakfu is a slaver, and one who is specifically depriving women of their freedom.

[[AC:Ely Duel]]
A corrupt police chief who moonlights as a masked crime boss.

->'''First Appearance:''' ''ComicBook/SensationComics'' #32, 1944

* TheBadGuysAreCops: Ely is both worse than the non-cop criminals in the same issues as he and a career criminal himself, whose officers are complicit in his crimes and helping cover up that their department is responsible.
* ComplexityAddiction: Ely has Wonder Woman at his mercy, but instead of just shooting her he decides to rig up a deal to electrocute her in Paula von Gunther's lab. Paula intervenes at the last minute and ends up killed by the contraption in Diana's place.
* DirtyCop: Ely isn't just working with criminals, he's outright leading a gang and using his position to further poison the cops under his juristiction.
* MeaningfulName: Ely '''Duel''' has dual identities.

[[folder:Draska Nishki]]
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/draska.png]]
A vile countess who has fallen on hard times financially and become a spymaster and blackmailer for cash. She has a history with Gen. Darnell.

->'''Created By:''' William Moulton Marston · Harry G. Peter
->'''First Appearance:''' ''ComicBook/SensationComics'' #40, 1945

* TheBaroness: Countess and spymistress who sells her work to the highest bidder.
* ImprovisedWeapon: She thinks she can take the Queen Of The Amazons hostage with a sock that is filled with sand. The resulting sneak attack does knock Hippolyte down, but she pays Draska back rather quickly.
* InformedAttribute: She's said to be most intelligent(and beautiful) than any other spy in The US or Europe, and in ''[[DownplayedTrope some]]'' ways this is true. Her start up, International Spies Inc, manages to steal military secrets from the US rather easily, which she flaunts fact in a US base before leaving unscathed. This is particilarly impressive since fortune aside, Nishki seemed to have no prior espionage experience or training. She also proves cooler under pressuer than Spy Queen [[MeaningfulName Furiosa]]. Nonetheless Fausta Grables and Velma Boswell showed a lot more cunning when dealing with Wonder Woman, even if they otherwise lacked Niski's business sense or leadership skills.
* NoSenseOfPersonalSpace: Draska Nishki uses her very intentional invasion of personal space to exert dominance over others, especially her targets like Gen. Darnell and Steve Trevor. She likes to sit on people's desks or otherwise give herself a perch that makes her closer than they'd like while also allowing her to loom over them.
* RichBoredom: Draska seems to have originally started acting as a spymistress out of boredom, and therefore developed a history with Darnell, long before she started running into financial trouble seeing as her need to play manipulative spy games is what brought the countess to the point where she now needs to sell her services in the field in order to maintain her lavish lifestyle.
* TheVamp: Draska Nishki spends most of her time flirting with male marks and cops in order to take advantage of them. She poisons Steve Trevor's drink while kissing him, in the full knowledge that he's been sent to act as a Honey Pot against her, and manages to convince an Officer of the Court to leave her alone and unsupervised to go get her some cigarettes.
* WickedCultured: Countess Draska Nishki is a high class woman with expensive tastes that chose to turn to a life of blackmail and spy wrangling in order to continue to be able to afford her lifestyle.

[[folder:Emperor of Saturn]]
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/emperor_of_saturn.png]]

->'''Created By:''' William Moulton Marston · Harry G. Peter
->'''First Appearance:''' ''Wonder Woman'' #10, 1944

* DastardlyWhiplash: While his schemes are too deep to fully fit the arhetype his appearance as an ObviouslyEvil Emperor with a thin handlebar mustache certainly fits.
* TheEmperor: The Saturnain Emperor rules over the bodies orbiting Saturn with an iron fist, has developed a ranking within the nobility based entirely on AsskickingLeadsToLeadership with failures in battle harshly punished, and is plotting to invade earth using abducted human slaves to build the infrastructure needed to do so. For bonus points he looks like a horned Devil.
* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: The Saturnian Emperor is only ever called by his title with his name never revealed. The later decision to put all of DC's Golden Age stories in one 'verse termed "Earth-Two" means that retroactively he's likely the Saturnian Ool that Zatara thought he'd frightened out of attacking earth five years before, or one of his sons Gorla and Porra. (This, consequently, would mean that the Saturnians can shapeshift as they did when facing Zatara and use telepathy in the Earth-Two continuity, just like the Post-Crisis Saturnains who are descended from Martians).
* HornedHumanoid: Looks mostly human save for the horns on his head.
* HornsOfVillainy: A sadistic villain with a pair of horns.
* KnowWhenToFoldEm: When Wondy shows up threatening him in his throne room for a second time, and he doesn't have Steve properly held and out of her sight so she can't just rescue him right away the Emperor listens to her terms and actually forms a treaty which he follows to the letter.
* RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: Every one of his outfits contains only red and black, his hair is black and parts of his skin are splotched/patterned with red, though this may be a coloring mistake. He's also a sadistic emperor who rules his subjects with an iron fist, has expansionist schemes, uses mind control and abducts people for use as slave labor.
* SatanicArchetype: The Emperor of Saturn has the appearance of a BigRedDevil, has an empire full of frequently beaten human and Saturnain slaves, his subjects are mostly terrified of him even those that revere him and when he makes deals and treaties he holds to the text while fully intended to use the loopholes therein to screw over whomever he made the deal with.
* {{Telepathy}}: Like all Saturnians the Emperor has telepathy.
* VillainousWidowsPeak: His hairline has a pointed widows peak, which shows off his horns.

[[folder:Great Blue Father]]
[[AC:Great Blue Father/Prof. Protus Plasm]]
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/fatherblue.png]]

A disgruntled biologist once employed by the government, he was responsible for creating a "moron hormone" that made adults act like children. Tired of having to answer to people he thought were dumber than him, Plasm secretly used his concoction under the guise of "The Great Blue Father" to instigate a pandemic among government officials seemingly having mental breakdowns.

-->'''Created By:''' William Moluton Marston & Harry G. Peter
-->'''First Appearance:''' ''Comic Cavalcade'' #10

* {{Cult}}: His "Retreat for Child-Minded Individuals" is for all intens and purposes a base for a cult Plasm's constructed as the Great Blue Father. Its location is secret and it's filled with people he regularly drugs with his moron hormone, and they all think of him like their father. Plasm even refers to his victims as his "family."
* DidNotThinkThisThrough: Sure Plasm got a laugh out of humiliating Sissok with his moron hormone, but he didn't think of what Sissok would do once it wore off. Subverted in that Plasm didn't mind getting fired because he thought Sissok was a stupid man.
* DudeWheresMyRespect: Plasm is a talented biologist and chemist who gets little respect from higher-ups.
* IgnoredExpert: His boss Mr. Sissok chose to ignore his findings on the proper diet needs for regular people, insisting he knew better than Plasm. Plasm did not take this kindly.
* MadScientist: Plasm created a serum he dubbed a "moron hormone" that mentally regresses grown adults to children. Small doses can brainwash people into following his command without making them act childish.
* PunnyName: A play on the word "protoplasm."
* {{Sadist}}: Using his moron hormone, he makes grown men and women (including Steve Trevor) act dangerously reckless and foolish to the point several of them almost kill themselves due to suicidal over confidence. Plasm does all this because he thinks he's better than them and enjoys their humiliation.
* SmugSnake: His smug belief in his own intellect proves to be his undoing when his attempt to kill Steve Trevor and several others with a nitroglycerin-filled baseball leads to them being shaken out of their drug-induced stupor.
* TamperingWithFoodAndDrink: Plasm gets his hands on people by making them ingest his moron hormone without their knowledge. Because seriously, who in their right mind would consume something called a "moron hormone."
* WhosLaughingNow: He started using his moron hormone to force government officials to act like little kids and humiliate themselves because he was tired of everyone thinking he was "child-minded."

[[folder:Gundra]]
[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/gundra_earth_two.png]]

Leader of Odin's valkyries.

->'''Created By:''' William Moulton Marston · Harry G. Peter
->'''First Appearance:''' ''Comic Cavalcade'' #17, 1946

* CantKillYouStillNeedYou: She stops Odin from executing Wonder Woman arguing that a living hell is more appropriate for her. Gundra herself wants to kill Wonder Woman, but wants to convince Steve Trevor his love for her is misplaced, which she believes will be easier to do while Wonder Woman is still alive but enslaved.
* DefeatByModesty: Gundra is usually fine with killing enemies, but she plans to make Steve Trevor love her more than Wonder Woman by humiliating her in front of him first.
* DependingOnTheArtist: In some stories she has wings, in some stories, including her first appearance in ''Comic Cavalcade'', she does not. She is consistently shown to be be capable of flight, with or without her horse that also flies with or without wings, regardless.
* IHaveYouNowMyPretty: Gundra kidnapped Steve away to Valhalla, which is her job. But she also took interest in Wonder Woman, because she was worried Trevor's love for her would endure after becoming einherjar, which was out of line and only allowed because Odin himself was interested in Wonder Woman. This led to Hippolyte leading a contingent of Amazons against the Valkyries and helping Wonder Woman defeat one of the Axis's most powerful comics only allies. (Given the Nazi's attempts to co-opt Norse Mythology in Real Life their Golden Age DC counterparts had the Valkyries' support).
* KungFuProofMook: She makes use of atomic power sources, since the Valkyries and Aesir are immune to the radiation. This does not extend to the warriors the Valkyries bring to Valhalla, even after converting them to einherjar, but Gundra simply doesn't care. In fact she counts on it to kill Wonder Woman, again not caring that some of Odin's mortal guests may be caught in the fallout.
* NiceJobFixingItVillain: Steve Trevor is many things, but he does not condone needless cruetly, which is why Gundra's plans to make him her own fail, and usually bring down her other schemes with them.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: It was originally "Gundra", but after the "Golden Age" DC has gone back and forth on that or "Gudra".
* VillainessesWantHeroes: The Valkyries have access to several generations worth of heroes converted into servants of Odin, but Gundra specifically wants Steve Trevor, which motivates her antagonism of Wonder Woman
* WingedHumanoid: Looks like a muscular blonde woman with wings, and given the way valkyries are made in this 'verse likely was a blonde human woman prior to becoming one.
* YourSoulIsMine: As a valkyrie Gundra can steal the souls of those she kills, making her an dangerous opponent even beyond death.

[[AC:Mask/Nina Close]]
The seemingly mousy and timid Nina Close dons a disguise to get back at her husband and the world when she realizes he's cheating on her with another woman since said woman is more confident and Nina lost her confidence due to the abuse her husband showered on her any time she showed the littlest bit of initiative.

->'''Created By:''' William Moulton Marston · Harry G. Peter
->'''First Appearance:''' ''Wonder Woman'' #24, 1947

* DeadlyGas: Her signature move is trapping her victims in masks designed to release deadly hydro-cyano gas into their mouths if a ransom isn't paid or someone attempts to remove them.
* DominoMask: Her disguise as Mask consisted of a domino mask and a wig.
* DomesticAbuse: An abused wife that killed her husband.
* {{Housewife}}: Brutus Close beat and berated Nina until she acted like his perfect meek and submissive housewife and stopped showing or acting any of her own desires beyond trying not to upset him.
* MadonnaWhoreComplex: Not Nina herself, but her brute of a husband Brutus has a very set picture for what he wants in a wife--meek, modest, submissive and "innocent"--verses what he wants in a mistress--bold and alluring--which makes Nina finally snap when she sees the double standard he holds women to after her entire personality has been warped trying to keep from upsetting him so that he won't hurt her again.
* MistreatmentInducedBetrayal: Nina spends years being abused by her scumbag husband and finally snapped when he boastfully cheated on her with a more bold woman while talking up his mistresses' bold traits, traits which he had beaten out of Nina and hated her for.
* MurderousMask: The Mask is so known because she locks her victims in masks rigged to fatally poison them if they tamper with them or she remotely activates them.
* SplitPersonality: Nina was an oppressed and frail wife of a billionaire industrialist. She developed a split personality that was patterned after the bold explorer Fancy Framer and began to extort millions for her husband and the U.S. government.
* TilMurderDoUsPart: The villain the Mask, who has targeted and killed the seemingly distraught Nina Close's husband turns out to be Nina Close, who was pissed at her husband for, among other things, showing another woman with affection while ignoring and dismissing her.

[[folder:Odin]]
Ruler of the Valkyries and supporter of Hitler.

->'''Adapted By:''' William Moulton Marston · Harry G. Peter

* AdaptationalVillainy: Odin is already one of the more unlikeable Norse gods, from a human perspective, but in his own mythos he does what he does either to prolong the end of the world, or to ensure his side comes out as well as it possibly can after the world ending battle. In these comics he's seemingly just a greedy war profiteer who happens to have god like power and immortality.
* BenevolentBoss: He is very forgiving when The Amazons defeat The Valkyries, convincing them not to commit suicide in shame and [[GracefulLoser pacify the enemy with a hospitible banquet]]. He loses this trait after Wonder Woman destroys Valhallah.
* DrivenToSuicide: Odin killed himself out of shame after his second defeat at Wonder Woman's hands left him without any Valkyries as Aphrodite took the warrior women and convinced them to live a life with no more killing and join her Amazons. Gundra was still loyal to him, but he was unaware of this at the time. Given his Valkyries themselves were asked to be executed when the Amazons first defeated them, it seems to be a cultural norm.
* EyepatchOfPower: He gave up his eye for wisdom, and wears a patch over where it used to be
* NiceJobFixingItVillain: [[MistreatmentInducedBetrayal Overworking his heroes]] instead of rewarding them for rebuilding Valhalla ultimately leads to them rebelling and helping the Amazons defeat him for a second time.
* ReforgedIntoAMinion: Odin gives women the option of becoming Valkyries, the heroes they choose for Valhalla don't get a say in their fate. After Wonder Woman destroys Valhalla Odin stops giving women a choice either, forcibly converting them into Valkyries. Then it turns out properly motivated Valkyries can disobey Odin, making it more like SuperEmpowering.
* SadlyMythtaken: His spear Gungnir and horse Slepnir are nowhere to be found. Valhalla is doomed to fall to giants from Midgard, rather than Jotunnheim. This paints his use of the Valkyries, his habit of gathering soliders from wars he has started, in an entirely different light.
* ShockAndAwe: He has a sword that can shoot summon lightning bolts over interplanetary distances and hit very small targets with little collatoral damage.
* TookALevelInJerkass: The destruction of Valhalla makes him meaner and far more temperamental, even after his heroes rebuild it.
* WarGod: He sends heroes of war the Valkyries have chosen and brought back to Valhalla for conversion into his fighters, back to Earth for the purpose [[TheMole of starting more wars to get him more fighters]].
* YouHaveFailedMe: His heroes have no desire to fight, only wanting to sleep after rebuilding Valhalla. Odin blames his Valkyries on this and decides to have them replaced with the Amazons who bested them in battle. His reasoning being that they can whip his "lazy" einherjar back into shape.

[[folder:Pluto]]

Lord of Pluto who feeds on the differently colored emotional spectres he divides his human victims into.

->'''Adapted By:''' Joye Murchison · Harry G. Peter
->'''First Appearance:''' ''Wonder Woman'' #16, 1946

* EmotionEater: Pluto and his subjects feed on the living by separating them out into specters of their colored emotional spectrum and then draining said specters.
* EverybodyHatesHades: He's this 'verse's adaptation of Hades/Pluto and is an outright villain who steals people away to the icey planet named after him and feeds on them by seperating their physical forms from their mental/astral/emotional avatars which he then drains.
* SadlyMythtaken: The ruler of the afterlife in Classical Mythology was a dread figure, but not an evil or malicious one, and had no relation to the planetoid Pluto as it had not yet been discovered. Here he's the King of Pluto, and is a sadistic villain.

->'''Created By:''' William Moulton Marston · Harry G. Peter

* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: She's almost only ever called the Purple Priestess, despite the US knowing her past as a Nazi saboteur under the name Sinestra.
* PiggybackingOnHitler: Her past as a loyal Nazi works as a nice shorthand to make it clear she's evil.
* SecondaryColorNemesis: The Purple Priestess wears a purple dress with a green veil and an orange headdress.
* ThoseWackyNazis: She was a Nazi in the past, and with the fall of the party has continued being an outright vile human being.

Sharkeeta grew to resent the Amazons for treating her more like a fish than a woman, and was drugged into compliance by Gerta after she led her fellow mermaids in attacking the Amazons and putting them in cages in retrun for their own treatment.

->'''First Appearance:''' ''ComicBook/ComicCavalcade'' #21, 1947

* BathtubMermaid: Gerta commissioned some giant fishbowls so that she could recapture Sharkeeta and the other mermaids and move them to her lab to experiment on them. The mermaids stole the things and modified them to hold air so that they could hold Amazons captive in them underwater as they were understandably upset about being treated like fish instead of people.
* ExposedExtraterrestrials: Sharkeeta and her fellow shark mermaids do not wear clothes or jewelry, and their modesty is preserved by their black shark skin extending far enough to cover their chests. This turns out to not be by choice and they resent the Amazons for keeping them isolated from the ocean and treating them like fish rather than women.
* PointyEars: Sharkeeta has oddly shaped pointed ears.
* SharkMan: Sharkeeta was a shark given humaoid features and intelligence in an exeperiment.
* UnscaledMerfolk: Sharkeeta does not have scales, but is covered with dermal denticles from the chest down. How she keeps from scraping the parts of her far more human arms which rub againtst it regularly is not addressed.
