But it does so in a particularly unexpected way. Once … do it. With a little help from Steve Trevor describing how an expertly designed plane flies in the air, Diana does the same with her almost human-like body. Huh?

Wonder Woman’s journey dates back to comic book history

For a superhero of her stature, Wonder Woman’s powers strangely resist vlogging. Sure, Superman has gone through some periods of power creep where he could do things like „supernatural invention” or „superhuman speech” or „Undo itself in time by accident. „ But these days it’s generally accepted that he’s tough and bulletproof, he can fly, have laser eyes, freeze breathing, x-ray vision, and elevated senses.

Wonder Woman is extremely strong and extremely durable, but not bulletproof – otherwise why would you need to do the supporting thing? – He is one of the greatest fighters in the world with a lot of charisma to boot. But then it gets muddy. At various stages in her history, she was also able to use „radio my mind” as if she was taking risks. She was granted the ability to talk to animals by the goddess Artemis, and she could travel to different dimensions by meditation, or she could speak a lot any language with ease.

And Wonder Woman wasn’t always able to fly. This is evident as soon as you think about it for a second. Why would she need an invisible plane if it could fly? Flying wasn’t as closely related to superheroes now as it was when it was created in 1942. Even Superman couldn’t fly at first – hence the phrase „jumps into tall buildings within one”.

For a long time, an invisible plane or plane has served Wonder Woman well. Flight without assistance did not become one of its primary strengths until 1987, when writer / artist George Perez His permanent replay of its original story began. Now, with the blessing of the god Hermes, Diana is able to fly through the sky with some winged sandals.

But it wasn’t the first time I learned to fly. Back in the 1970s, Wonder Woman lost all her powers for a while (short, but memorable and infamous), and when restored, she re-discovered ancient Amazon technology. I learned to ride air currents short distances. In other words, it discovered how to fly like an airplane without having a body in the shape of a plane.

Which is exactly how it gets off Wonder Woman 1984It might look strange on the screen. But you know what they say: fish should swim, Amazon must fly.
