Originally posted by Suzianne Well, the dichotomy is that the film, due out in March 2016, is not a DC property, afaik anyways, and that the director has a free hand to interpret the characters as he wants. This is also why I hate these many 'reboots'. How many 'origin' stories should there be?
On the other hand, the video game "Injustice: Gods Among Us" uses the new DC Wonder Woma ...[text shortened]... where WW fights a character named 'Killer Frost':

Based on the Wonder Woman backstory the second pic (holding a sword) is probably the most accurate visual representation, because she originally came from a tribe of (benevolent) amazonian warrior women.
In my opinion the most realistic super hero would have to be Batman, because he doesn't posses any special or supernatural power. Seeing his parents being murdered traumatized him and led to a life of fighting crime. And being wealthy enabled him to afford the high tech car and gadgets and computers, and anything else he might want to have in his arsenal. So none of this is beyond the realm of possibility... a bit exaggerated maybe, but still mostly realistic.

Oh my goodness! What do you suppose divegeester might think if he sees this gratuitous display of abhorrent violence? We must always ask ourselves, "What would divegeester do?"

I still don't know how supergirl could be younger than superman if he was only a baby when he left Krypton, because the planet blew up shortly after he was sent out into space.
Was she was traveling through outer space much longer than he was, and relativity caused her to age slowly as he was growing up on Earth? That's the only explanation I can think of that makes sense.

Comic books do not have to make sense. They are Fantasy entertainment.

Well sure, but even a little kid who knows Superman's backstory might wonder how Supergirl was able to show up later on, and I don't know what (if any) backstory was originally given to explain this.
Inquiring minds want to know. The mind wants what it wants.

That appears to also be the way the evolutionists sell their stories of billions of years by coming up with new back stories when they need it. 😏
