Wonder Woman is an empowering symbol of feminine power and has been a subject of controversy ever since 1941, when she first appeared in All Star Comics. As part of DC's Trinity, Wonder Woman is one of the greatest heroes along Batman and Superman.
The “Amazing Amazon” is simultaneously a strong-willed born warrior, but also a lover of peace and a diplomat who always tries to avoid conflicts; she is fierce, but compassionate and nurturing.
Along the way, Wonder Woman was highly criticized for her overly sexualized image. The comic was actually banned in 1942 because the character was not sufficiently dressed, being placed on a blacklist of "publications disapproved for youth."
In spite of all this, the character became a feminist icon embodying both power and a strong set of ethical attributes. She serves as an inspiration for every woman, promoting self-reliance, mental and physical strength, and also mutual support among women.
