From Actor Feuds To Alcoholism: Behind The Scenes Of Wonder Woman

Zeus Is Her Father

For a long time, Wonder Woman’s origin story was as follows: her mother, Queen Hippolyta, created her from clay and was brought to life by Athena. All of her superpowers were a result of the gifts bestowed on her by the Greek Gods.

This meant, of course, that she did not have a father, but in the newest reboot of her beginnings, DC Comics decided to give Wonder Woman a father and who better for the role than Zeus, king of the gods of Mount Olympus? However, as the story goes, Wonder Woman was raised jointly by her mother Hippolyta and her aunts, Antiope and Menalippe.
