Advice, Wonder Woman
A new journey to be started.
A new promise to be fulfilled.
A new page to be written.
Go forth unto this waiting world with pen in hand, all you young scribes,
the open book awaits.
Be creative.
Be adventurous.
Be original.
And above all else, be young.
For youth is your greatest weapon, your greatest tool.
Use it wisely.
- Wonder Woman, # 62 by George Perez, the scene where Vanessa Kapatelis graduates and Diana is hugging her

Happy Birthday, Wonder Woman!
Great Hera!
Happy Birthday, Wonder Woman!
by Susana Polo | 5:55 pm, March 22nd
Who would have guessed that Wonder Woman and William Shatner would share a birthday? It could even be intentional, except that the Shat was ten when she debuted in December 1941.
But wait, you say, if her first comic came out in December, why is her birthday in March? Well, for the same reasons that Lex Luthor has now canonically stolen 40 cakes: little known apocryphal published tie-in materials. Like this calendar:
(via DC Women Kicking Ass.)
So, we apologize for the quality, but we wanted a video of Wonder Woman kicking ass, and this was the only one we could find that illustrates the raw power unleashed when you stick a mind-control device on the Champion of the Amazons. The other heroes in this Justice League Unlimited clip (Huntress, Black Canary, Vixen, and Hawkgirl) are by no means lightweights themselves. Huntress and Canary are some of the most skilled hand-to-hand combatants on the show, and Vixen and Hawkgirl are relative bruisers.
