Wonder Woman is a super-hero dating back to the 1940's when she made her debut in All Star Comics volume #8. Since then Wonder Woman has appeared pretty much exclusively in DC Comics. The character is based on, and considered a princess of the Amazon women whom through her journeys comes to spend most of her time on Earth with the humans. Her home is an island called Themyscira(up to now Paradise Island) named after the Ancient greek home of the mythological Amazon women.
The character is a heroine and has many super-human abilities that seem to change depending on the author as well as given situation Wonder Woman finds herself in. Most notably she's got super human strength, speed, intellectual and mental skills. Furthermore she has shown the skills to communicate with animals, perform telepathy, blow gusts of wind at amazing speeds, and occasionally fly.
Wonder Woman possesses unbreakable bracelets(which in many story lines can't be removed), additionally, the Lasso of Truth, which if lassoed by, captives are magically made to be truthful. The Lasso can be considered unbreakable and can also be extended at an infinite length. Wonder Woman also has a tiara which contains super features, and she can throw the tiara with a boomerang-like effect.
Together with Batman and Superman, Wonder Woman comprises DC Comic's so called "Trinity" which is basically indicating they are the three most powerful and iconic characters in the DC Comic Universe.
Aside from being heroic & superhuman, Wonder Woman is likewise exceptionally beautiful. The intent supporting these traits had been her creators attempt to imply that women can easily posses all of these traits simultaneously, thus to help liberate the women of that time from being chained in or pigeon-holed by males of their time.
Through the years, Wonder Woman has retained a significant level of popularity considering that she is a female in an otherwise man infested world, from both the arena of comic figures and the customers who buy them. As a result she has been a bit of a trailblazer in the business that has since added characters such as Super Girl, Wonder Girl, Cat Woman, and Marvels long list of female characters such as Jean Grey/Phoenix, Storm, Rogue, Mystique, etc.
In recent months there was a TV show pilot on NBC that has been cancelled though it may resurface on an alternate network in the near future. There are also rumors that the motion picture idea has been thrown around which would seem to match the recent increase of super hero movies lately.
