Despite her prestine global reputation and iconic stature, she struggles to discover the truth behind who she is and what she represents. Even worse, Diana’s friend and archaeologist, Dr. Barbara Minvera covets to steal the Lasso of Truth hoping to add it to her collection of historical items.

When Wonder Woman realizes that Cheetah is gonna attack the Amazons and steal the lasso again, she has to protect Theymscira and uncover the truth behind who she is and what she represents…
