Wonder Woman: Amazonia

In this 1997 DC one-shot, writer William Messner-Loebs and artist Phil Winslade reimagine Wonder Woman’s mythos within a grim, Victorian-era alternate history. Here, Hippolyta’s Amazons are a brutal, conquering force, and Diana is raised as a warrior-princess in a world where steam-powered technology and colonial oppression reign. The story explores a darker take on the Amazonian legacy, offering a standalone, Elseworlds-style vision that contrasts sharply with the heroine’s traditional ideals. It stands as a provocative, single-issue glimpse into what might have been.
