Before Diana. Before the island. Before the lasso.
Wonder Woman Historia is a DC Black Label graphic novel that tells the secret history of the Amazons—beginning with seven goddesses furious at how mortal women are treated, and the war in heaven that follows when they decide to change things themselves.
Across three oversized chapters, each drawn by a different artistic powerhouse (Phil Jimenez, Gene Ha, and Nicola Scott), the book:
- Reimagines Greek myth with a Homeric, epic scale and a woman-centered lens
- Follows Hippolyta and the Amazons as they fight for women across the ancient world
- Delivers page after page of dense, ornate, “how is this even possible?” artwork that’s become legendary in modern superhero comics
The collected edition has also picked up serious accolades, including an Eisner Award for Best Graphic Novel (Reprint) and a nomination for the 2024 Hugo Award for Best Graphic Story, cementing it as a modern classic.
This is us setting the tone for our first proper superhero(ine) story in book club: big, lush, mythic, and absolutely ready to be obsessed over.
