In the Wonder Woman comics, the Bracelets of Submission[1] are a pair of fictional metal bracelets or cuffs worn by Wonder Woman and other Amazons. They were originally created by William Moulton Marston, alluding to the Amazons' ties to Greek mythology, as an allegory for his philosophy of loving submission. The bracelets protect Wonder Woman, allowing her to deflect impacts from many kinds of firearms and weapons. They are impervious to fire, energy blasts, and projectiles (ranging from shells to arrows). The bracelets also make Wonder Woman immune to fall damage.[2]
