Who is Donna Troy?

Donna Troy debuted as Wonder Girl, a young Amazon trained on Paradise Island alongside Wonder Woman, and became a founding member of the Teen Titans. Gifted with superhuman strength, speed, flight, and magical abilities, her precise origins proved famously complex even by DC standards.

Few characters in DC's vast history carry as much emotional weight and narrative complexity as Donna Troy, who first graced the pages of Wonder Woman #113 in 1960, brought to life by Robert Kanigher and Ross Andru during comics' Silver Age. Over an extraordinary 66-year publishing span, she has grown into one of DC's most enduring figures, appearing across 470 catalog entries and racking up an impressive 17 key issues that collectors prize. Her home is most often found in Titans and The New Teen Titans, where she shares adventures with luminaries like Dick Grayson, Starfire, and Green Lantern β€” the kind of company that signals she runs in DC's most beloved circles. If you're serious about understanding the heart of the DC Universe, Donna Troy is absolutely essential reading.
