Brief Update On Diana’s Age (Wonder Woman 36)
A brief update on the matter because it’s been a bit more up in the air since New History gave us the Hippolyta in WW2 Retcon.
Last issue’s it was established that Polly fought in WW2 with the JSA and Diana was unaware of that fact meaning she was either not born yet or too young to remember. This issue it’s revealed that there are two “Amazonian Champion” outfits. The first chest held Polly’s, which existed before Diana was born and which Polly decided the world would never be ready for the amazons which would be after she came back from the war. The second chest holds a second costume, specifically crafted for Diana the day she was born because Polly could tell she would “walk further than she ever did”. This places Diana’s birth after Polly returns meaning some time after WW2 and some time after HUAC is formed and breaks up the JSA.
Does this matter? Not a ton really that much but I like tracking it since the rough age established in Nubia and The Amazons 1 doesn’t seem to apply any more.
