EXCLUSIVE: Identity of EARTH 2's 'Last Amazon' Revealed

James Robinson discusses who the mysterious figure on the cover of EARTH 2 #8 is.

A week ago DC revealed the penciled cover to EARTH 2 issue 8 by artist Yildiray Cinar. Aside from the fact that the image is absolutely stunning, the picture also left us curious as to the identity of the woman in the picture. In fact, many of you debated over the character's identity. Could it be Donna Troy? Is it a new female character? Earlier today we caught up with writer James Robinson on our weekly Comic Vine podcast where he revealed the identity of the mysterious character and yes, you have definitely seen her before.

The Last Amazon is Fury, and you will see how her name relates to her Amazon heritage as well as her relationship with Steppenwolf. - James Robinson

Interesting! That still doesn't explain what her relationship to the Amazon's is. Did she know Wonder Woman? Did she know Donna? Does Donna even exist? This is definitely an answer that leaves us with a lot of questions. What do you think of the big reveal?

Fury was Lyta Ttrevor. The Earth 2 Daughter of Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor pre COIE. After crisis they created another female heroine to replace WW's role in E-2 history who became her mother. She was always going to be the most appropriate choice to be brought back for an Earth 2 Book.

@cameron83: First take a chill pill and refrain from using profanity. Second, Earth 's history is still shrouded in mystery. We don't know if Dick Grayson, Jason Todd or Tim Drake (judging by this somewhat convoluted timeline) were taken in by Bruce. We know that Bruce was old enough to have a daughter who's in her early twenties.Thus Cass could theoretically exist and she would be older than some of these heroes that have been showing up like Jay. Of course we know she probably wasn't a hero around the time of the invasion because she wasn't listed as a part of the Eight Wonders (however there was one that wasn't mentioned, so it is unclear). Going by your logic Supergirl exists in the main earth and therefore she either cannot exist or would have been killed, but she is shown to be very much in the land of the living. Thirdly, many fans of Donna Troy (who you labelled as retards) are very excited for her return seeing as she was excluded form the New 52 and her existence seemed to be wiped. I know that for myself, being a fan of Wally West, that when they showed Daniel West in the 0 issue, I was excited as this could be showing his return. Last of all, if you want to make a point or remark try to be clearer, not use upper case, not swear and actually think about hwat you're typing. This way people will actually respect you and your opinion.

@Webjaker: Oh cool, I bet you're right. She was the leader of the FURIES, so now she's called Fury. Makes sense.

We don't know if the history of the Grayson (Robin/NightWing) Titans is the same on Earth New 52 as it was on old Earth 1. Donna might not have existed or had those Teen Titan relationships. You could place Ms. Troy into a fledgling JSA or a 2nd Generation (Earth2 "Wonders") Infinity Inc. A Young JSA or Infinity Inc. might be the closest fans of Donna Troy or Lyta Trevor get to see thier favorite (forgotten) Teen Amazon.

I think Donna was supposed to be in Justice League International and they changed their minds last minute. She's too popular to stay gone forever. She'll be brought back but it should be in the new DC universe. It would be a shame if a bonafide Earth 2 character like Lyta Hall loses out when all it will really mean is that Donna Troy will end up with another convulted origin and that's the last thing that character needs.

This Fury might be a Amazon Amalgom of all three/(4 with Barda)characters. All have interesting (confusing, lol) histories ... It will be fun to see what/who James Robinson's "Fury" is. :)

When SuperGirl/PowerGirl vanished to Earth 1(Prime/New 52) maybe Steppenwolf "turned" Wonder Woman's Child or Step-Sister (as happened to Earth 1 Kara Zor-El by Darkseid). could Fury be a E2 reintroduction of Lyta Trevor or Donna Troy?

I just don't get why they want Donna Troy on Earth 2. All of her important connections are on the new 52 earth.

If Bruce has a grown daughter on Earth 2, then it would make sense for Fury to be Diana's daughter from pre-Crisis, with her mother's powers. If all the other elements of the Kirbyverse are starting to show up, it would make sense for the Female Furies to do so as well, and that's where Lyta's been, and why she wasn't killed with the rest of the Amazons.

I'm hoping she's Lyta and not Helena Kosmatos. There are similarities in costume to both Lyta and Helena so it's hard to tell which one it is. She could be an amalgamation of both of them as James suggested he was doing with characters on the podcast.

If this Fury is Wonder Woman's daughter who is her father? Did Steve Trever exist in this reality? Or is it someone else entirely?

I feel like he's being a bit... sneaky... by saying Fury. Is this a new character who uses the moniker "Fury" or is she actually Lyta and therefore Diana's daughter? I hope it's the latter.

@Rugor: you're right, I'm overreacting, and its good to see that they're taking characters from Earth 2 to actually be in a book called Earth 2, maybe they'll keep re-inventing those from the JSA we love or minor characters from the all star squadron, even the Infinity (i don't what else it was called) like villains and allies and everything :D

you should be happy with this. WW was one of the original members of the JSA going back to 1944

@DarthShap: Nice call! Do you think this character is going to be a former Female Fury?

Probably an Amazon that Steppenwolf captured as a child and trained to become a Female Fury.

Robinson really is not as subtle as he thinks he is when he says that :

The Last Amazon is Fury, and you will see how her name relates to her Amazon heritage as well as her relationship with Steppenwolf.

I was right!

If it is Donna, that would just be weird. The Earth-2 comic book is nothing like the original Earth-2 and the continuation of its continuity on New Earth but at least, so far it only used Earth-2 characters. Donna has never been an Earth-2 character.

I am pretty sure she is called Fury, as an homage to the original Earth-2 character and at the same time, because she appears to be a Female Fury on that cover.

@notarandomguy: I understand not wanting to read DC when they no longer publish your favorite characters, but why would the revelation that the Earth 2 "Last Amazon" is going to be based on an actual Earth 2 character with an Earth 2 code name rather than an Earth 1 character be the breaking point? I just don't get that at all.

My guess that whip character from the female furies, maybe she becomes a hero on Earth. Or perhaps not. I was hoping that it would turn out to be Donna Troy who takes over as the new Amazon warrior, and maybe use her Titan Godhood as part of it, make her like Thor on Earth.

Was kinda hoping that was gonna be Donna but this is interesting too, even though I'm only vaguely familiar with Fury's pre-Flashpoint origin and history. With her involved with Steppenwolf it explains a lot for why the events of the first issue of Earth 2 happened.

Yaa see i get that feeling too! haha The reason why is because Uncanny Avengers is going to be the flagship title of MarvelNow meaning it is going to have a strict editorial staff. I loved Remender's X-force but any tragic event that would happen in the book would have very minor reprecussions on the x-men universe, there fore he was able to do soo much with the characters and story. On Uncanny Avengers im not sure if he will be able to do the same, also im not cassadys biggest fan...so yaa i think i am going to stay with Earth-2 for awhile..untill Hickman's Avengers or Thunderbolts comes out.
