I'll take th<strong>is</strong> opportunity to point out that when the gods supposedly transformed her from clay into a<br />

real baby of flesh and blood and infused her with a reincarnated soul, she became a living, breathing<br />

human being. She's not clay any more. She's not a clay golem. The clay <strong>is</strong> no longer consequential....<br />

But still if I was the writer I would prefer using the term resurrection of Hippolyta’s unborn child. (Diana<br />

alias <strong>Wonder</strong> Woman) As well as use resurrection to describe the Amazons of Ancient Greece. Let’s<br />

face it DC and all the other comic book publ<strong>is</strong>hers use resurrection all the time with their dead characters.<br />

I like the idea that <strong>Hercules</strong> could be her father. It's plausible in the Marston version, in that her origin<br />

<strong>is</strong> told in a flashback. The Perez version left no possibility of doubt, though. Spelling things out so<br />

explicitly took away from some of the magic, I think.
