  • Alternative Character Interpretation: Hercules invites new interpretations by his inconsistent nature, especially since he often sees himself as a hero and has at times attempted to become one in the more modern sense.
    • This article is a detailed analysis on how Hercules is most likely Wonder Woman’s biological father by comparing the original mythos with DC Comics adaptation of it. There is also a Wall of Text on the subject on this very wiki on the Wonder Woman WMG page, though it includes—as such guesses are wont to—several things without any basis in the text.
  • Broken Base: Hercules being a villain. Some think it is an interesting subversion of the character's usual role and think it is a more honest acknowledgement of of the unfortunate moral standards of his era. Others see it as an unfair, misandrist demonization of one of the more moral (by modern standards) heroes of Greek mythology in order to whitewash the Amazons.
