Wonder Woman is one of the most powerful DC superheroes, possessing superhuman strength that puts her on par with Superman. She has even surpassed Supergirl, who is frequently seen as more powerful than Superman, however Wonder Woman's Amazonian warrior training does help her. It was long assumed that her silver bracelets, made from the fragments of Zeus' shield, enhanced her abilities because they are indestructible and may be used offensively. In the New 52, Wonder Woman removes her bracelets to battle a God, stating that the bracelets are what protect her opponents from her great strength.
