Second Story Synopsis
After Diana Prince finds that Steve Trevor is too dumb-struck with love for Wonder Woman to consider taking her out, she asks Queen Hippolyta for advice. She tells her daughter how, when Hercules was smitten with her, and did nothing but brag to her of Hippolyta’s beauty while the Queen assumed a secret identity as an Amazon soldier, she fooled him with a “mirage-mirror” that gave her two heads, allowing her to assume any shape she wished temporarily.
Later, when he asked the normal Queen Hippolyta for a date, Hercules was chagrined to find her going off with Apollo. Queen Hippolyta still has a mirage-mirror on hand, and lends it to Wonder Woman. The Amazing Amazon goes to a charity carnival with Steve Trevor and uses it to distort her appearance into that of a circus fat-girl and a super-tall elongated thin woman, in which guises she thwarts attempts of Angleman and his gang to rob the carnival. Finally, when Diana Prince appears, Steve asks her for a date, but she turns out to have Superman on her arm, and tells him she has other plans.
