DESIGN
Established with firm Canadian roots, SUPERMANTM was the first super hero, spawning countless new characters in the DC COMICSTM pantheon, such as WONDER WOMANTM. He was the inspiration for a new archetype that not only still exists today, but is more popular than ever. Many important Canadian visionaries continue to shape WONDER WOMANTM today, lending their talents as storytellers and further building on her history.
The reverse design mimics a comic book splash page with its engraved rendition of WONDER WOMANTM. WONDER WOMANTM is a pillar of strength as she stands with her bracelets crossed, ready to deflect anything that may come her way. The application of blue, red and yellow colours over the detailed engraving recreate her iconic costume and symbol, particularly the yellow of her tiara and the Lasso of Truth carried on her hip. Behind her is an engraved view of her island home Themyscira, a.k.a. Paradise Island, while the classic WONDER WOMANTM logo is engraved to her left. A laser halftone pattern adds a modern graphic element infusing the entirety of the design with a classic comic book feel.
