Synopsis for "Wonder Woman - Amazon Teenager"

While swimming off Paradise Island, Princess Diana encounters Mer-Boy, an amphibious teenaged merman with a fishtail body below his waist. Later, Diana watches herself as the adult Wonder Woman in a “time-and-space televisor” in an Amazon laboratory, and asks Queen Hippolyte when she can wear the costume of Wonder Woman. Hippolyte replies that she must earn the right to such a costume by performing incredible feats. The Amazons submit suggestions as to what Diana must do to earn the costume. The most difficult list of tasks, and the one which wins the contest, is Diana’s own. First, Wonder Girl braves a cannibal clam underwater, within whose jaws she finds the white stars that adhere to her skirt. While performing this task, she has to save Mer-Boy from a swordfish. The next part of her costume, the Magic Lasso, is found within an island volcano, which she retrieves by gliding on the updrafts caused by the hot volcanic air. Mer-Boy then gets captured by the giant Roc, whose nest holds the last part of Wonder Girl’s costume, the eagle emblem. Wonder Girl rescues Mer-Boy, gains the eagle emblem and places it on her chest, and evades the Roc. She gives Mer-Boy her hair ribbon as a memento before he leaves, and he promises she has not seen the last of him. Later, Hippolyte congratulates Wonder Girl for being worthy to wear her new costume.

Synopsis for "Gunslingers of Space"

Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor appear stymied by what appears to be the return of Billy the Kid and Jesse James, on flying horses, leading similarly-equipped gangs of outlaws, and apparently impervious to Wonder Woman’s weapons. The two outlaw leaders are in reality Ronnkyn and Zuggm, harbingers of an alien invasion force, who have chosen to see if Wonder Woman can defeat them. When the aliens make an attempt to capture Wonder Woman, though, she has deduced that their clothing, which repels bullets, is metal and uses a huge magnet to trap them all. They direct her back to their planet, where she unceremoniously dumps them and the magnet.

Notes

  • "Wonder Woman - Amazon Teenager" is a Wonder Girl story.


Trivia
