Ares is a fictional character, a super villainous Greek god appearing in DC Comics publications and related media. Based upon the Greek mythological figure of the same name, he is the god of war and one of the major adversaries of Wonder Woman. He first appeared in Wonder Woman #1, volume 1, published in the summer of 1942, written by Wonder Woman creator William Mouton Mars ton. In the very next issue he reappeared under his Roman name, Mars. He would retain this name until February 1987,when comics writer/artist George Pérez restored the Greek name Ares as part of his reboot of the Wonder Woman myths. As the narrative continuity of the Wonder Woman comic has been adjusted by different writers throughout the years, various versions of Mars/Ares, with various personalities and physical appearances, have been presented. His current incarnation has, in recent years, appeared in one of two guises - either as a muscular blond man in contemporary clothing, with red eyes and a scarred torso; or as a demonic Greek warrior clad in black and blue battle armor, face hidden by a hop lite helmet.
