Post-
Crisis
In the Post-Crisis universe, Wonder Woman receives her super powers as a blessing from
Olympian deities just like the Silver Age version before, but with changes to some of her powers:
Hermes, the messenger god of speed, granted Diana superhuman speed and the ability to fly. She is capable of flying at speeds approaching half the speed of light. She can react quickly enough to deflect bullets, lasers, and other projectiles with her virtually impenetrable bracelets. After the 2011 relaunch of the character, Wonder Woman does not naturally possess the power of flight. She gains it once she is hit by a feather thrown by Hermes.
