Story Notes

An untold story from Diana Prince's NASA days. After flying to Cape Canaveral, Wonder Woman sends her invisible jet back to Paradise Island, perhaps answering where she keeps her jet when not in use. Diana Prince never logged any space time during her tenure at NASA, but she does so here as the pilot of the space shuttle. Instead of using her lasso to change identities, astronaut Prince is wearing her Wonder Woman garb under her spacesuit.

Story Notes

First appearance of Donna Troy as Wonder Girl in the Wonder Woman comic. The Wonder Girl who appeared in the 50's and 60's was Wonder Woman herself as a young girl. Wonder Girl has a magic lasso that compels obedience just like Wonder Woman's, but she notes she doesn't have a robot plane.
