The monthly Wonder Woman comic book is now relaunching, making it one of the later “Dawn of DC” titles. The new beginning for the series is written by Tom King, who has big plans for the Amazonian Princess. Unfortunately, some of these ideas are a bit contradictory to her publication history, especially when it comes to her oftentimes underrated rogues gallery.The current run is set to introduce a “Joker level” villain for Diana. Despite this hype, Wonder Woman already has several villains who can fill such a role, and just as many who were pushed in such a capacity – and failed to deliver. This has become a recurring problem with the heroine, and it’s not exactly exclusive just to her.As described by series writer Tom King, this new threat to Wonder Woman is “on par with Lex Luthor or the Joker.” Those two characters are the respective arch enemies of Superman and Batman, so a new villain being hyped up as being on their level is heavy advertisement. This might work for a new villain created for a similarly fresh character, but the problem is that it’s being applied to Wonder Woman. She’s the premiere superheroine in comic books, and she’s been around almost as long as the other two members of the Trinity. On top of that, she most definitely has villains who already fill this arch enemy role.RELATED: Tom King’s Wonder Woman will Once Again Don the ’60s All-White CostumeRELATED: EXCLUSIVE: Tom King Explains What Makes Wonder Woman Different From Batman and Superman
