Waid was worse with Wonder Woman, and not in a misogynistic way, but in an "I don't understand the Amazons" way.
Waid's Wonder Woman is Fighty McFighterton. Her talk about peace and understanding is just that: talk.
And, as bluefall can tell you, that Fighty McFighterton POV carried on to other Wonder Woman writers. Like the only way to show how strong Diana is is through her fighting prowess.
