In "Angel Down," Wonder Woman #3 (2017) delivers a haunting, emotionally charged chapter as Diana remains trapped in a fractured mind, communicating only with a mysterious talking snake while her mother Hippolyta and the Amazons on Themyscira watch in silence as a dead tree blooms in the sacred soil. Meanwhile, Steve and Etta flee from Godwatch’s relentless pursuit, seeking refuge with an unexpected ally—Ferdinand the bull—only to face a devastating choice when Barbara Ann agrees to take on the Cheetah’s mantle to save her friends. Written by Greg Rucka and brought to life with striking art by Liam Sharp and vivid colors by Laura Martin, this issue deepens the mystery of Diana’s collapse and the growing threat of Godwatch, all wrapped in a cover by Liam Sharp that captures the story’s uneasy tension.
In "Angel Down," Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor find themselves stranded on an island they believed to be Themyscira—only to be ambushed by the mercenary group Poison, led by Colonel Marina Maru, under orders from Veronica Cale. With the Picket agents dead and Diana plunged into a trance after confronting painful truths about her past, Steve must rely on his team—Chris, Manny, and Davy—to fight off the mercenaries and protect them both.
In the quiet dread of a psychiatric hospital, Wonder Woman lies broken, her mind fractured by the truth of her origins—while visions of Amazons, alternate Hippolytas, and a talking snake flicker at the edge of her consciousness. As her allies scatter—Steve, Etta, and Barbara Ann forced into hiding, hunted by Godwatch—Hippolyta, Philippus, and Castalia sense a deeper threat stirring beneath the surface.
In "The Truth Part Two," Diana of Themyscira remains trapped in a fractured mind, her only connection to the world a vision of a talking snake, while back on the island, Queen Hippolyta and the Amazons sense a dark omen in the sudden withering of a sacred tree. Meanwhile, Steve Trevor and Commander Etta Candy flee from Veronica Cale’s Godwatch, seeking refuge with an unlikely ally—Ferdinand the bull—only to be forced into a desperate bargain when Barbara Ann Minerva agrees to embrace the Cheetah once more, trading her loyalty for the lives of her friends.
In "The Truth Part Three," Diana of Themyscira confronts a shattering revelation: her memories have been manipulated, and she’s never truly returned to her homeland. With Barbara Ann Minerva transformed once more into the Cheetah and Veronica Cale determined to force the truth from her, Diana must race against time to rescue her friend while fending off Colonel Marina Maru’s relentless agents. As the Amazons receive a glimmer of hope, Diana stands at the edge of a storm—her past a lie, her future unwritten.
In "The Truth Part Four," Veronica Cale pushes forward with her desperate plan, using The Cheetah to hunt down what she believes is the gateway to Themyscira—her only hope of restoring her daughter, Izzy. With Colonel Marina Maru and her agents in pursuit, Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor race to intervene, facing not only the Cheetah’s fury but the growing threat of a long-buried secret that could reshape the world.
In a realm beyond the known world, Diana of Themyscira and Veronica Cale uncover a hidden prison holding Ares, while Izzy Cale—restored and changed—reveals a truth long buried: the secret of returning to Themyscira is guarded for a reason. With Deimos and Phobos closing in through the gateway, Diana must act fast to keep Ares contained, even as the weight of ancient lies threatens to unravel everything she thought she knew.
In the wake of a shattering revelation, Wonder Woman stands at a crossroads—angrier than ever, she turns to the Justice League for support, only to confront the gods themselves. As Steve Trevor prepares a homecoming, Diana insists on facing divine truth, while Etta Candy helps Sasha Bordeaux rebuild after captivity, and Veronica Cale walks free despite FBI scrutiny. The line between justice and betrayal blurs as Diana’s quest for answers leads her deeper into the secrets of her own origin.
