“Whatever Happened to the Warrior of Truth?” concludes in a landmark 800th issue! Diana’s visions become more vivid as she finds herself trapped in the dreams of those around her!

King credits Mitch Gerads for laying the groundwork for Trinity's creation. "Mitch had a great idea for doing a sort of all ages short story to follow up on our Mister Miracle series where Jon and Damian would be babysitting Scott and Barda's kid, Jack. This got me thinking about the son of Batman and the son Superman as older brother babysitters and how really the person they should be looking after is their little sister, the daughter of Wonder Woman. I have three kids, two of whom are close in age and then one who's 5 years younger than those two, so I'm very familiar with this dynamic and its potential for comedy and drama. Super sons...and daughter. It was the kind of thing I'd want to read with them at any age. So, after I had that idea in my head, I couldn't get it out."
King further explained that Jon Kent/Superman and Damian Wayne/Robin provided "a model for the impact we wanted for Trinity." He continued, "Someone who could reflect the greatness of Wonder Woman and still show a next possible step for the ideals embodied in that very impactful and very unique hero. And maybe more important than all of that, is that Jon and Damian are so great together: Pete Tomasi and Patrick Gleason gave us endless gold with Super Sons. For Trinity, we wanted someone who could play in that same sandbox, who could add to that chemistry."
Sampere added, "I loved Yara's design and her chest plate and wanted to do something similar to Joëlle Jones design in ours, like establishing it's a common piece young amazons use frequently. For the colors, I liked the idea of using blue as the dominant color over red to make the opposite of her mother and give Trinity her own personality in that aspect too. Trinity will be an incredible character and I'm very honored to have created her look. I hope fans will enjoy it!"
Wonder Woman's Next Adventure Begins This September
Releasing on Sept. 5, 2023, Wonder Woman #1 ushers Diana into the "Dawn of DC" as she finds herself fighting a government-led Amazon Extradition Entity task force. The synopsis for the issue reads, "After a mysterious Amazonian is accused of mass murder, the U.S. Congress passes The Amazon Safety Act, barring all Amazons from American soil. To carry out its new law, the government sets up the Amazon Extradition Entity (AXE) task force to remove those who don’t comply by any means necessary. In her search for the truth behind the killing, Wonder Woman now finds herself an outlaw in the world she once swore to protect."
Wonder Woman #800 releases on June 20, 2023, from DC.
