I hear you that Wonder Woman herself is different than those characters and we need to consider those differences. Fair enough. But the point is that she would need those things to be enough to overcome a significant difference in how they stack up when we look at their actual fights against the same opponents.
That's not ABC logic. It's 1:1 comparisons.
Bruh, didn't even see your post this entire time until now. For real.
Anyway, if you really want to extol the notion of 1:1 comparisons than Wonder Woman soloed Circe, Grail, Giganta, Silver Swan, Angle Man and Doctor Psycho. Scale that 1:6 appropriately and let me know where you stand. Because each of those characters (some of them anyway) have defeated the Justice League, let alone someone like Superman.
But we both understand that in a storyline where Wonder Woman is the feature protagonist, she will "operate" at her peak levels. And conversely, in other storylines where she is a supporting background character, she don't do sh1t. Just like Superman. Or Zod.
To be clear, I'm not going to act like the Eradicator scenes never happened, but it's up to you to argue that "throw-away" scene is more determinative than Wonder Woman's own suite of feats. Like her feats against Kryptonians... including against Superman.
