- Awesome Art: Phil Jimenez was already considered a fan-favorite Wonder Woman artist but many reviews, including Jimenez himself, consider his work on the first issue to be some of his career best.
- Genius Bonus:
- The splash page depicting Hera's vision of the struggles of women in the future are references to real life historical events/figures; including British chieftan Boudica
, the Trail of Tears
, and British feminist Mary Wollstonecraft
.- Gene Ha, the artist, later shared breakdown of each reference.

- Hera and Artemis being the two goddesses mostly directly involved in Diana's creation (Hera giving Diana a soul and Artemis one her names) makes a lot sense given the two were the patrons of childbirth in Ancient Greece.

- Nightmare Fuel: During the creation of the Amazons, as part of her tribute, Artemis' appearance takes on that of a centaur-like creature with the top half being exposed muscle while the bottom, centaur-half, is made entirely of deer antlers.
- Tear Jerker: Hippolyta being given the duty of having to leave the unwanted baby girl exposed in the wilderness as the father of said child wanted a boy. Something the narration notes was a commonly accepted cultural practice at the time but no less horrifying, and which Hippolyta is clearly not comfortable with.
- Spiritual Successor: Kelly Thompson has said while not a direct follow-up, that Absolute Wonder Woman can be considered a sort of successor to Historia in both general themes, tone, and certain plot points.
