it ' s hard to say azz destroyed the mythos when ww ' s mythos has been retconned with every new writer . perez , rucka , simone ect all do the same thing . There ' s a difference between changing certain details about her origin and changing what she represents . Making her the god of war and making the Amazons murdering rapists is like making guns Batman ' s main weapon and turning Alfred into Count Olaf . Not to mention , that there ' s already a Wonder Girl who ' s a daughter of Zeus , and giving a long time prominent character the backstory of a sidekick character is pretty insulting . and then ww fans wonder why her mythos isn ' t as well known or respected as the other trinity members . First of all , I ' m pretty sure it has more to do with her backstory just not being that well known out of comics . Was it ever depicted out of it ? I can ' t recall instances where it has . No one knew Captain America ' s origin that well before his movie was a hit , either . Second until Azzarello , she was always made of clay , the Amazons always stood for good , and she always used her iconic lasso rather than a sword . Other writers changed a few things , but those core elements always endured . So , yes , I ' d say they were respected again , there ' s a difference between changing a few surrounding elements of a mythos and changing the mythos itself .
