With her first feature film emerging as the Biggest Movie of Summer 2017 and settling multiple records, including Highest Grossing Film by a Female Director, Wonder Woman has never been more iconic and popular with mainstream audiences. With the new film Professor Marston and the Wonder Women, another accomplishment is added to the list: a film about her creator and her origins releasing in the same year as her first solo blockbuster film. While the Marston family has called the verisimilitude of Professor Marston into question, viewed in accordance with Patty Jenkins? Wonder Woman, Professor Marston offers a unique lens that enhances the blockbuster starring Gal Gadot in some interesting ways. Professor Marston provides the origin of not just the character of Wonder Woman, but why she dresses the way she does and what significance her weapons and accessories have. Professor Marston?s closing title cards also noted that after Marston stopped writing Wonder Woman, the kinkiness and erotic content was removed from the comics. While this betrayed Marston?s original concept for the character, it ultimately helped Wonder Woman endure for over seven decades. In time, the noble and heroic aspects of Wonder Woman?s character emerged and are what ultimately have taken hold: her compassion, her courage, her fierceness in battle, and her capacity for love.
