* UltimateUniverse: This series is specifically an updated adaptation of the original ''ComicBook/WonderWoman1942'' by Marston and Peters. In particular, the far-future subplot in volume 3 is full of specific references to ''WonderWoman'' #7, which is also [[spoiler:set in a utopian matriarchal 31st century where Amazon ideals rule the world]].

In Volume Three, it is revealed that the Greek Gods are less forgotten than most of humanity believed, as the USA declares war on the Amazons.



*** Max Lord's "team", who only appear in a few panels, are Mr. Earl, Dr. Duke, and General Conquest. It is strongly implied that they are the Earth-One versions of the Earl of Greed, Duke of Deception and Count of Conquest, Ares's minions in Golden Age ''Wonder Woman'' comics.

* AdaptationalSexuality: The series is very clear about the frequency of woman-woman love among the Amazons. Beth Candy is also strongly implied to be bisexual.



* ExactWords: No man is allowed to "touch the soil" of Paradise Island. So when Steve is brought to testify at Diana's trial, he's brought in on a mobile podium. How non-seriously this is taken is lampshaded when a couple of pages later he's standing on the ground arguing with Hippolyta and Diana, with nobody making any comment or non-verbal reaction.



* FemalesAreMoreInnocent: The amazons believe that all the worlds problems (namely violence and war) will be solved by putting women in charge. As far as they are concerned men are naturally monsters and any woman who acts as bad is only the result of male influence.

* RevisitingTheRoots: The series is strongly based on the original William Moulton Marston comic from the 1940s, including both the magical elements that seem silly to many today, and the peculiar peace-through-BDSM ideology.

Asskicking Equals Authority has been renamed.


* ALighterShadeOfGray: The Amazons are presented as having methods and ideology superior to that of Man's World. They see reeducation and loving submission as being preferable to war, and their leadership, regardless of how benevolent, is still a dictatorship based on MightMakesRight and AsskickingEqualsAuthority. Many of these aspects are called out as imperfect or problematic by the story, but it's ultimately suggested that their way is still "better" than Man's World's.

* HowWeGotHere: Following a prologue in which Hercules brutalises Hippolyta and she and her Amazon sisters break free from him and his cronies, the issue begins with Diana returning to Paradise Island, being placed under arrest and submitting to trial by truth. The rest of the issue involves her and others discussing what happened in the run-up to that point.
* TheHypocrite: The majority of Amazons claim to detest violence and are centered around peace and wisdom, but their kindness and mercy only applies to women or "sisters". More than a few of them want nothing more than to wage gendercide against the "sons of Hercules" and slaughter any man they come across. Diana points out the hypocrisy of this, as well as the fact that it plays right into Ares' hands.
