Who is Philippus?

Philippus is an Amazon warrior of Themyscira and one of Princess Diana's most trusted guardians, serving as a general of the Amazonian army. Introduced in the landmark 1987 relaunch, she is among Queen Hippolyta's most loyal and capable commanders.

Born in the pages of Greg Potter and George Pérez's landmark 1987 Wonder Woman relaunch, Philippus is a Copper Age creation with genuine staying power — a figure whose presence in that foundational series helped define the world around one of DC's greatest icons. Over nearly four decades she has kept distinguished company, sharing adventures with Wonder Woman, Princess Diana, Artemis, and Green Lantern across a remarkable span of stories. Her appearances in the Pérez omnibus alone mark her as part of comics history worth revisiting, and any collector who loves the rich mythology built around DC's Amazonian corner of the universe will find her a rewarding thread to follow.
