- Anvilicious: Gail Simone mocked the tendency for the character to be depicted as this in her run on the book; Wonder Woman sees a movie based on herself and is embarrassed to discover that it depicts her as a Straw Feminist who constantly gives Narm-filled rants about the superiority of women.
- Fashion-Victim Villain: Cheetah's, uh... let's call them chaps, are not very flattering.
- Fridge Brilliance: Theana's quick execution, in spite of her great power, makes sense when one considers The Citizenry have incorporated Oan technology into their weapon systems. Oan technology reacts to will power, which Theana is running low on after Diana spent the better part of the issue breaking her psychologically. This was done to subdue Theana without either one of them suffering serious physical harm. Diana, not understanding why Citizenry weaponry is so oddly familiar to her, doesn't even realize just how direct her role in Theana's death was. Some things are better off not known.
- Harsher in Hindsight: Gail Simone once wrote an issue during her run where Diana was annoyed with a film that turned her into the daughter of Zeus and made her and the rest of the Amazons into a bunch of Straw Feminists. Now, not only has the New 52 retconned Wonder Woman into being the daughter of Zeus and given the Amazons a rather violent disdain towards men, but Wonder Woman (2017) has decided to use this version of Diana's origin (the "daughter of Zeus" thing, not the "hating men" thing).
- Heartwarming Moments: In Warkiller, Diana realizes that Genocide has used her Emotion Bomb powers to poison Donna Troy's mind, causing her to fly into a delusional, Unstoppable Rage when in proximity to the Golden Lasso of Truth. Without hesitation, Diana tosses her Iconic Item into the sea.Diana: It is a glorious thing. But it is still a possession. You are my sister. And all the gifts from the gods that have ever been aren't worth a strand of your hair.
- Hilarious in Hindsight: In Simone's run, Diana kills Ares with an axe to the head. A decade later, her Alternate Company Equivalent Thor would become infamous for attacking Thanos with an axe but not going for the head.
- Love to Hate: Dr. Psycho and Circe, both Card Carrying Villains who love nothing more than to harass Diana and are both their own special brand of despicable.
- Romantic Plot Tumor: Diana's romance with (Nemesis) Tom Tresser was not well received, especially given he was an obvious stand in for her traditional blonde, blue-eyed, American superspy love interest Steve Trevor who in this continuity was married off to Etta Candy to make room for Diana to have other boyfriends. Amusingly in Diana's next series the Big Bad is named Nemesis.
- Strangled by the Red String: Diana is suddenly involved in a relationship with Nemesis (Tom Tresser), a new co-worker and long-time minor DC character. Many fans felt this new hookup was rushed at best, especially since Tom was considerably more boorish than in previous appearances. This is finally clarified: their relationship falls apart when Tom learns Diana likes him but does not consider herself to be in love with him.
