DC Finest: Wonder Woman: Dawn Before Darkness

When truth is shattered and death wears many faces, even gods tremble.

Diana's world is under siege--from enemies without and doubts within. As Paradise Island descends into strife and a celestial invasion looms, the Amazon warrior faces betrayals, rebirths, and supernatural reckoning. Across space and myth, through darkness and memory, Wonder Woman must fight to protect not just the world, but the soul of heroism itself.

Collects Wonder Woman #36-44 and #600, Secret Six #10-14, Blackest Night: Wonder Woman #1-3, and DCU Halloween Special '09 #1.

About the Author
Gail Simone first caught the attention of the comics world on the internet, where her popular humor column "You'll All Be Sorry!" was featured on Comic Book Resources. It wasn't long before she was tapped to write The Simpsons for Bongo Comics, which led to working in the mainstream for Marvel Comics as the writer on Deadpool. Following her Marvel work, Simone began working for DC, where she is best known for her much-beloved run on Birds of Prey. She has continued to write for DC and its many imprints on titles that include Batgirl, Secret Six, Action Comics, Wonder Woman, JLA Classified, and many more. She's also written fan-favorite episodes of such animated series as Justice League Unlimited, Batman: The Brave and the Bold, and My Little Pony and is currently working with various publishers on Uncanny X-Men, James Bond, She-Spawn, and Rebel Moon. She lives on the Oregon coast with her husband and greyhounds.
