Resurrected after years of oblivion, this young god has emerged once more to shake the world to its very foundations.

And now Wonder Woman must make a choice of her own. Can Diana reform Ares wicked ways? Or will she and everyone she cares about learn the hard way that there's no such thing as a just war?"
