Synopsis
After her sacrifice at the climax of Death Metal, Diana had expected to ascend but the The Quintessence attempt to persuade her to join their ranks.
She is unsure as she wants to know the fate of her family and friends, so The Spectre takes her on a tour of the newly formed Omniverse to show her what everyone is up to.
She see many of her comrades, including her grieving mother on Themyscira, who believes her daughter dead. As some of the Amazons fight to prove their worthiness to take her place as Wonder Woman in man’s world, the Queen tells them that if they are truly worthy of being the new Amazon champion they must gaze into a box containing the head of Medusa.
Only Nubia has the courage to do so and is surprised to find inside instead Hippolyta’s crown. The former queen tells Nubia that she wants her to now rule the Amazons, while she herself goes out into man’s world to take her daughter’s place.
Diana also gets to see Yara Flor setting off to revisit her homeland of Brazil, while Amazons from the Brazil tribe watch her every move.
Finally, they both return to The Quintessence, who assume Diana is now ready to accept her offer. But she declines, stating that in this new world she needs to go out and discover the next chapter of her life.
Disappointed at her departure, The Quintessence discuss what to do next but are then seemingly killed by Darkseid.
