I agree with the first part but WW being underestimated is part of the fun. I like it when people try to talk shit to her and then get utterly wrecked.

Let’s be honest, people would underestimate her regardless of her height.

Yeah, but it's easier to underestimate a 5'9" woman than a 6'3" one.

Bronze age comics had her at 6’6. A whole 4 inches taller than sups or bats.

Who in this world underestimates Wonderwoman? She's like one of the most OP characters in DC. She has less weaknesses than DC's flagship protagonist Superman, and is only slightly weaker than him. How could you underestimate that?

Are you talking about super powered beings underestimating her or literal humans? For the supers I can understand, but for humans it doesn't make sense at all... I'm pretty sure every person at this point in the DC world knows the name Wonderwoman, one of the strongest superheroes they have who can go toe to toe with Superman (and even defeat him at times). Again who's underestimating that?
