Doing promo for Wonder Woman 1984<\/em><\/a>, leading actress Gal Gadot<\/a> appeared (via video call) on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon<\/em>. There she partook in a cultural cuisine-swap with Fallon \u2013 actually a \u201csequel\u201d to her previous appearance<\/a> promoting the first Wonder Woman <\/em>in 2017 \u2013 giving him some Israeli snacks like Gefilte Fish, while Gadot tried \u201cAmerican delicacies\u201d for the first time, like Eggnog, Ho-Hos, and of course, Taco Bell. Gadot seemed particularly taken by The Bell, describing it as \u201cflavorful\u201d and \u201csalty,\u201d and telling\u00a0Fallon it was \u201cthe best so far.\u201d The appeal is inadvertently appropriate, given how in the comics, Wonder Woman found brief part-time employment working at Taco Bell<\/a> (or, as it\u2019s known in the DC Comics, Taco Whiz).<\/p>\n

Superheroes facing financial insecurity is usually the domain of Marvel Comics<\/a>. Spider-Man is always struggling as a freelance photographer, the Hulk is often homeless, and even the Fantastic Four had a storyline (in Marvel Knights #4<\/em>) where they went bankrupt. By contrast, DC Superheroes are aspirational figures who rarely face such mortal hardship. Superman is reliably employed as a Daily Planet reporter, and (as Bruce Wayne admits in Justice League<\/em>) Batman\u2019s superpower is being rich. Wonder Woman\u2019s employment history<\/a> is more complicated. Originally, Wonder Woman became an \u201carmy nurse\u201d in her secret identity as Diana Prince, but gradually rose in the ranks of military intelligence. Other jobs included working at the United Nations. For a time, she was also a depowered martial-artist who worked at a boutique store.<\/p>\n

Wonder Woman\u2019s income was further complicated by her fluctuating secret identity. Sometimes she would commit to the Diana Prince identity, and sometimes abandon it. After Crisis on Infinite Earths <\/em>rebooted DC Comics continuity, this human identity was completely done away with, making Wonder Woman live openly as herself, usually without monetary needs. During Greg Rucka\u2019s first run on the character, Wonder Woman served as a literal Ambassador to Themyscira, including running an embassy and publishing a book about Amazonian values<\/a>. But before that, when struggling for money, Diana found a small steady salary working at Taco Whiz.<\/p>\n
