Wonder Woman's Shields are Amazonian defensives weapon used by Diana during her battles. The shield is used as a second option to the Bracelets of Submission so that Diana can protect herself from both ranged and melee attacks.
History[]
Diana using the shield to deflect oncoming gunfire in No Man's Land
In 1918, Diana took the shield from the armory in Themyscira, where it was held alongside the God Killer, Lasso of Hestia, and her signature armor. Since it was held in the armory, it is likely the shield held some significance.
Diana would go on to use this shield when fighting alongside the Wonder Men in World War I at the Battle of Veld, showing the full defensive capabilities of the shield at No Man's Land.[1]
Wonder Woman discharging Doomsday's energy with her shield
By 2015, Diana replaced her first shield with a new one, which was first seen to be in use when she intervened in the fight against Doomsday.[2] Diana continued to use this second shield through the War for Earth against the New God Steppenwolf.[3]
Capabilities[]
Much like the Bracelets of Submission, Diana's shields are virtually indestructible. Her first shield was able to withstand machine gun fire and deflect shells from the Imperial German Army.[1] Much like the Bracelets of Submission as well as her first shield, Wonder Woman's second shield is virtually indestructible. Her first shield was able to withstand machine gun fire and deflect shells; while her second one is capable of deflecting even powerful and destructive thermal attacks from monsters such as Doomsday. Due to its tremendous durability, it can also be used as an offensive weapon, as seen when Diana used it to momentarily knock the Kryptonian Doomsday down.
