About this Collection
This deluxe hardcover collects the opening chapters of Greg Rucka's celebrated run on Wonder Woman during DC's Rebirth initiative, including the 'The Lies,' 'Year One,' and 'The Truth' story arcs. Featuring art by Liam Sharp, Nicola Scott, and Bilquis Evely, the volume follows Diana as she uncovers a conspiracy that challenges her entire history while also exploring her earliest days on Themyscira. This edition also includes the Rebirth one-shot and issues #1-14 of the series, along with bonus content like sketches and variant covers.
In "Wonder Woman Rebirth," Diana's journey begins anew as Hippolyta calls an Amazon council to decide how to respond to Steve Trevor’s arrival on Themyscira. With differing opinions among the Amazons, Castalia’s belief that the gods have sent Steve as a sign leads to a tournament to choose a champion—Diana, who emerges victorious. Written by Greg Rucka and illustrated by Nicola Scott, this pivotal issue sets the stage for Diana’s return to the world beyond the island, with Jenny Frison’s striking cover capturing the moment’s weight.
