I'm not usually sanguine about movies taking liberties with a comic book's established backstory, but for this one, I think I'm comfortable with it. Setting Diana's origins in World War I makes better sense than WW2, if only for the fact that the First World War may be the greatest instance of hubris , arrogance and sheer obstinate, military stupidity in the history of the world. What other war could be so characterized by such a lack of vision, by every military authority repeating the same mistakes over and over, as if you're going to get different results the second or third time around?

By the way, Diana's armor looks fantastic. Looking forward to 2017.
