The Hypnotic Woman, also known as Hypnota the Great, was a member of Villainy, Inc. during World War II and an enemy of Wonder Woman. Hypnota was originally a stage magician at Daly Theatre impersonating a man, but she was accidentally shot in the head by her twin sister Serva while training for a new act. Her life was saved through an experimental surgery, with the unexpected side effect of activating Hypnota's midbrain enabling the use of a "Blue Hypnotic Ray" to take over the will of any other person. 

Hypnotic Woman was created by William Moulton Marston and Harry G. Peter, first appearing in Wonder Woman #11 (1944).
