After a mysterious Amazonian is accused of mass murder, Congress passes the Amazon Safety Act, barring all Amazons from U.S. soil. To carry out their plans, the government starts a task force, the Amazon Extradition Entity (A.X.E.), to remove those who don't comply, by any means necessary. Now, in her search for the truth behind the killing, Wonder Woman finds herself an outlaw in the world she once swore to protect! Writer Tom King (Batman, Mister Miracle, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow) and superstar artist in the making Daniel Sampere (Dark Crisis, Action Comics) join forces for this action-packed relaunch and the beginning of what will undoubtedly become a groundbreaking run on the character.
Who is Wonder Woman's daughter?
This new Wonder Woman run has made headlines even before it has hit the shelves, with the reveal that King and Sampere will be introducing Trinity, the daughter of Wonder Woman, in a story for the upcoming Wonder Woman #800. While Trinity's real name and origin are currently a mystery, it's safe to assume that she will have a major impact in the future of the DC Universe.
"Hard to remember exactly, but I think I stole at least the first spark from Mitch Gerads, the brilliant artist whom I'm blessed to work with on so many things," King explained when Trinity was first announced. "Mitch had a great idea for doing a sort of all ages short story to follow up on our Mister Miracle series where Jon and Damian would be babysitting Scott and Barda's kid, Jack. This got me thinking about the son of Batman and the son Superman as older brother babysitters and how really the person they should be looking after is their little sister, the daughter of Wonder Woman. I have three kids, two of whom are close in age and then one who's 5 years younger than those two, so I'm very familiar with this dynamic and its potential for comedy and drama. Super sons...and daughter. It was the kind of thing I'd want to read with them at any age. So, after I had that idea in my head, I couldn't get it out."
