Wonder Woman is so close to release that it’s hard not to be giddy about the heroine’s first solo film. The first female superhero deserves a great movie, and hopefully this will be a smash hit. I’ve been excited for her movie since she appeared in Batman V. Superman and can’t wait to see her own movie. Patty Jenkins (director of Wonder Woman) has stated that this movie will be Diana Prince’s origin. So what better way to get pumped for the series than by reading the best interpretations of her beginnings? These are the five best versions of Wonder Woman’s famous origin story.
5. Wonder Woman Earth One
Of all the reimaginings, this one is definitely the most mature. It also has a very unique perspective on the Amazon Princess. Writer Grant Morrison decides to focus on how Wonder Woman’s sexuality clashes with Man’s world. This doesn’t quite have the epic scope as some of the other stories have, but it’s more character driven and has a good sense of humor. Plus, Yanick Paquette’s artwork is just stunning. I’ve written a detailed review of Wonder Woman Earth One (shameless plug) that you can check out for yourself. Morrison and Paquette’s time with Diana is a strong start to this list.
