Diana Prince has had a lot on her plate these past few months in the pages of Wonder Woman. First she learned she has a long lost twin brother named Jason to whom she’s had to show the proper Amazonian ways. Even worse, she’s had to contend with the return of Darkseid, who was turned into an infant in the pages of Justice League. As if all that wasn’t enough, she’s also got to deal with the Lord of Apokolips’ half-Amazon daughter Grail.
Now, the newly adult again Darkseid wants a new army to do his bidding. And who are the best warriors in the DC Universe? The Amazons. But Wonder Woman isn’t too keen on letting her people become Darkseid’s slave army, and with her brother Jason in tow, she plans to stop Darkseid’s plans at whatever the cost. Writer James Robinson has been been turning Diana’s world upside down over the past few months, and it looks like she’s not getting a break anytime soon!
