Wonder Woman Annual: Wonder War – The Matriarch #1
On Sale September 30, 2026
In Wonder Woman Annual: Wonder War – The Matriarch #1, we witness the Matriarch’s inferno.
Stephanie Williams said in a DC Com8cs Press release:
“In the Matriarch Special, Leah and I are exploring a single motif: conviction versus doubt,” “The Fates take Lyssa’s Green Lantern ring and send her alone onto the Phlegethon, the River of Fire she was warned about as a girl.
This leaves her isolated, compelled to confront her own fears and uncertainties. We’re intentionally paralleling the events of ‘The Wonder War Act 2’ that begins earlier in September.
While Tom and Dani fight the external war in Wonder Woman #37, Eduardo, Belén, Leah and I are following Lyssa’s internal struggle after she chooses fate over freedom.”
After the shocking events of Wonder Woman #34, the Matriarch must crawl her way through Hell and back to the land of the living to stop Steve Trevor and Trinity from changing the past.
The only thing that stands in her way is a river filled with the souls of heroes and villains alike who perished by her hand. Retribution is coming for the Matriarch. Will she survive it, or is she doomed to fate?
