Still, the argument that it’s a more easily consumable origin for the masses than ‘magical clay’ is hard to deny, and the change has even been used as Diana’s origin in the Patty Jenkins-directed Wonder Woman film. The change drew criticism from Wonder Woman fans for making a character whose origin had previously been primarily matriarchal, with focus on Hippolyta, now centered on Diana’s relationship with her father. One of the more controversial aspects of the New 52 was a fundamental change to Wonder Woman’s origin, in which writer Brian Azzarello and artist Cliff Chiang revealed that Diana, contrary to what she had always believed, was not sculpted from clay by Hippolyta and brought to life as her daughter, but was in fact that offspring of an affair between Hippolyta and Zeus. There’s been a fair amount of, if not nostalgia, then at least reflection on DC’s New 52 era in the past few weeks, and not everything that came with DC’s 2011 linewide relaunch is remembered fondly. Wrong.” Artist Gene Ha also replied affirming that Zeus will not be Diana’s father in the series.
“If it’s an unwanted child it suggests they’re going with the daughter of Zeus origin instead of her having been sculpted from clay.”Īcknowledging the danger of taking time to reply to fan concerns before the book’s release, DeConnick’s reply was unequivocal: “noooooope. “Oh, I hope that’s not Diana in the basket,” the fan tweeted. The preview page the fan expressed concern about shows a baby in a basket, floating down a river, while a distraught-looking woman walks away. I really, really should not respond to this as it's a slippery slope to address every guess or projection, but I've only had half a cup of coffee and I'm feeling spicy, so I'll just say this - noooooope.
