Eric Luke creates a new, deadly adversary for Diana in the form of Devastation,
with powers equal and opposite to everything Wonder Woman possesses. Not since
the "Mayfly" storyline back in issue 79 had
Wonder Woman actually been struck by a bullet - because one of Diana's key abilities
is to protect herself using her bracelets. In this issue though, Devastation's
speed proves too great and she manages to shoot the Amazon Princess in the gut
at point blank range, critically injuring her!
A new villainess named Devastation causes anarchy in a small mid-western U.S.
town to lure Wonder Woman. When Diana arrives to put a stop to things, she more
than meets her match as a violent fight ensures The Amazon Princess is critically
injured by a bullet and is only saved from a second fatal shot by the Wonder
Dome, which shields her and whisks her away to safety.
