DCEU
When mankind enslaved the Amazons and Queen Hippolyta freed them, someone had to stay behind to hold back the tide of men so the others could escape to Themyscira. The Amazons gave up all of their armor to make her one suit strong enough to take on the whole world, the Gold Armor, and the legendary Amazon Golden Warrior Asteria sacrificed herself for a better day for others.
Ages later, when Wonder Woman came to Man's World, she searched for her, but all she could find was her Gold Armor.
During her last confrontation with her friend Barbara Minerva then completely transformed into a cheetah hybrid assassin, Diana had to don the Gold Armor in order to protect herself from her powerful claws.[3]
Capabilities
Crafted of pure gold, the armor provides the following:
- Invulnerability: Providing protection from explosions, gunfire, electricity, and most forms of physical and energy attack.
- Sealed Systems: The helmet has a retractable faceplate. When in use, the wearer has a protected air supply.
Notes
- While the Gold Armor first appeared in Kingdom Come #3 (1996), it did not show up in the New Earth continuity until Wonder Woman (Volume 2) #144 (1999).
