She is the greatest warrior the world has ever seen; a guardian of peace and justice with the power of a goddess. But even Diana of Themyscira--the superhero better known as Wonder Woman--is entitled to a little downtime. And after the incredible trials she's just endured, she could use it. But when she goes to a wedding with her best friend Etta Candy, all hell breaks loose. A madwoman's attack on the reception ignites an all-out war for Wonder Woman's most precious resource: the DNA that makes her an Amazon. It could be a miracle cure...or a doomsday weapon. Soon the planet's most powerful bounty hunters are on her trail, out to acquire her genetic makeup by any means necessary. Can Wonder Woman fend off this ruthless attack? Or will the heart of the Amazon be exposed for the world to see?

Collects Wonder Woman #26-30, Wonder Woman: Steve Trevor #1 and stories from Wonder Woman Annual #1.

Wonder Woman was created in the early 1940s as a paragon of female empowerment and beauty and her near eighty-year history has included seismic socio-cultural changes. In this book, Joan Ormrod analyses key moments in the superheroine's career and views them through the prism of the female body. This book explores how Wonder Woman's body has changed over the years as her mission has shifted from being an ambassador for peace and love to the greatest warrior in the DC transmedia universe, as she's reflected increasing technological sophistication, globalisation and women's changing roles and ambitions. Wonder Woman's physical form, Ormrod argues, is both an articulation of female potential and attempts to constrain it. Her body has always been an amalgamation of the feminine ideal in popular culture and wider socio-cultural debate, from Betty Grable to the 1960s 'mod' girl, to the Iron Maiden of the 1980s.
