That Wonder Woman had a different origin story. Steve Trevor was a spy for the Axis instead of the Allies.

[@darkmask5933]

Wonder Woman in Injustice was an AH, but there's a reason for that. There are two major differences in the normal DC universe and the Injustice universe, those being The Joker and Steve Trevor. The Joker is obvious, his plan to nuke Metropolis and make Superman feel responsible for it was one thing, the other was Steve Trevor was a Nazi Soldier. He tricked the Amazons and Diana, getting her to go with him only to eventually get caught and declare he would love no woman as much as he loved the Nazi empire. That broke something in Diana, and she's been damaged ever since.

[@StareachValcin]

In the DCAU, Wonder Woman started off as someone who didn't know about the world outside of her island, yet still wanted to help. Not to mention that she was raised with a warrior's mentality and an Amazonian's distrust of men. Plus, the constant battles against villains. Along with her temporary exile from her home and mother due to her decision to help mankind. These factors easily could play a role in the anger that Wonder Woman has shown throughout justice league and justice league unlimited, along with the fact that she does care. While Wonder Woman does sometimes need help to control her anger, I like how she does at times control her anger on her own. There is more to Diana than just her anger and warrior mentality. Wonder Woman does care.

I think it was drawing off Diana’s history in Tower of Babel and other similar showing. It got cut from the justice league doom movie-the one where Batman’s plans all nearly kill the Justice League? In it she says something like. “I actually don’t blame people for their circumstances. For feeling like they need a safeguard against us for themselves and their home. I also don’t depend on them to save my life in a fight though.” Forgiving Batman in that instance but still wanting him off the league. It makes sense for a warrior. Because playing in Diana’s weight league means she’s not actually immortal. Soldiers have a reputation for blunt and simple because getting any fancier with it usually gets ugly. Gets lethal. Hawk girl was a lot of things but none of them were simple. 😅

[@jaybone2321]

Batman mellows out because you need that Everyman/human element to keep power in check. Batman even says that to Green Arrow when he gets inducted. The events from Superman TAS had him realize how dangerous he could be if his power was manipulated. Throughout JL, you see him getting angrier in order to keep someone like Luther from using his own power to manipulate everyone to achieve his own selfish ends. Superman keeps teetering more into using his power to stop those ends, but absolute power corrupts, which ties into the Justice Lords storyline. Batman is there to keep him in check.

At times, Superman can be overly optimistic, like when he didn’t want to consider the Justice Lord scenario because he felt he’d never do that, but you still need to consider what could push you to that point. Batman is pragmatic but is also paranoid of simple ideas, like when Wonder Woman asked him out (more/less). The middle man here was actually Green Arrow during the Cadmus arc. He was the voice of reason since he’s neither overly optimistic or paranoid. Just good writing all over when you see how they balanced all the characters.

While I feel Diana has her reasons for holding onto her distrust and her grudge against Hawkgirl because of Hawkgirl proving she wasn't throwing in her lot with the league and proving her loyalty with them, she is still that naive warrior princess in that she doesn't consider the fact that while yes, while she cares about loyalty above all else, and Hawkgirl also values that kind of loyalty, Diana never considered that Hawkgirl's loyalty was first to her people, not to a bunch of people she only met like a year ago As for the rest of her anger issues throughout the show, she had never had a taste for how the grain of life ran outside of themyscira, while she got that world ending threats were a once every so often kind of thing, she never got that things just below that that most heroes deal with on the daily happen well, on the daily. For the longest time she felt distant because she didn't want to get attached to anything, but then she saw that if she continues to pursue the ideal of seeing justice be done, she might well be here for god knows how long, and that ticked her off that helping to continue seeing justice be done in the world outside of her tiny little island wasn't ever going to have just one easy fix. That's why she was particularly angry in that opening of the episode where she was like, "I just wanted one day off where I could pretend that the ideal goal I so greatly want to see accomplished could actually happen without me being there to keep it going" and that's also why in that same vein of anger, therein lies her reason why she started to get truly attached to the league and some of it's members in particular, namely Bruce and John, and why Hawkgirl's betrayal continued to hurt, because once she had "accepted" that helping to bring justice to man's world wasn't just a one and done job, she began to see that the league truly were her new sister/s(and brothers) in her new isolated floating fortress in the sky and she would be able to rely on them to always help her see out that ideal goal, and when Hawkgirl, a women, the kind of person she had grew and known for being able to trust to the ends of the earth for the last how ever many thousands of years on her island home, when hawkgirl betrayed the league, she particularly betrayed Diana in her mind because of that context

The angry DCU Wonder Woman is a result of a drive to focus on her as a warrior Amazon around early 2000. This is when she went to using a sword a lot as opposed to relying on her powers and lasso. She is comparable to Superman in power, but she needs a sword where as he does not. Wonder Woman is an angry agent of peace. The saddest scene is in JLA Dark where she stops a person plagued with visions of monsters from hurting others. When the victim says they see monsters, Wonder Woman says the only monster she sees is the victim- this is the bad ass Wonder Woman who is tougher than any of the makes around her.

This was very well assembled. I really enjoyed your breakdown and analysis.

[@basementofmars1963]

Kind of interesting trivia: Aries was voiced by British actor Michael York best known for his roles in Logan's Run and Austin Powers.

[@maryanntoner4520]

Also, Hawk and Dove were voiced by Fred Savage and Jason Hervey, best known for playing Kevin and and Wayne Arnold on “The Wonder Years”, respectively. (Another pair of brothers with a frequently combative relationship.)

Best depiction of WW/Diana as character to this day.♥

I recently rewatched the 2 parter where one of the Amazons tries to kill all men, showing the unhealthy prejudices of the Amazons and Diana herself. Was hoping that would get a mention in your analysis of her but I still liked your video. I always enjoy your videos.

[@AchanCham_]

Incredible video as always. Thank you.

what a wonderful woman

"She's a rebel, she's a saint, she's the salt of the earth and she's dangerous" thought that would slip by an old green day fan, huh?

I would love to see you do a video on Injustice Wonder Woman, especially her origin. There was two major difference between the DC universe and the Injustice universe; The Joker succeeded in blowing up Metropolis and Steve Trevor was a Nazi. Being betrayed by Steve and being that he did not love her as much as he loved the Nazi regime really broke something inside of her, that wasn't broken in any other Wonder Woman.

I think it's interesting this is all being done with the heroic duo that launched Rob Liefeld's career.

[@PhilosophicallyAmerican]

My only issue I have with this episode is that the "Dove" mentality is all well and good for interpersonal situations, but is less applicable on the international level.

[@xXichibanBaller]

It's been a historic necessity in a world where the stand in for the annihilator is nuclear bombs

[@PhilosophicallyAmerican]

@@xXichibanBaller The beauty of the Cold War is that bullets were never fired between the main powers at play. This episode portrays an active warzone. It's a few steps down the road.

Diana proved right to turn herself in to n Waller. That move saved Bruce's life.

The Ego/Superego/Id stuff is all very insightful and provides a thematic take on this episode that I hadn’t thought of, but what are we Jungians to do? Will there ever be a video for us?

Uhhhh wonder woman is the anima (girl) batman is the shadow (dark and cool) Superman is the idealized self (can pull of spandex without looking dumb)

I am guessing that DCAU Aphrodite pretty much follows her mythology and doesn't give her husband a second thought unless he starts making things for her.
