Who Is Earth 2's 'Last Amazon'?

Wonder Woman died in the first issue of EARTH 2, but an Amazon graces the upcoming cover of the series. Who could she be?

They say sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words, and in the case of the latest image revealed by DC Comics for the cover to EARTH 2 #8 it seems this one reveals a whole heck of a lot. The penciled sketch by artist Yildiray Cinar, Steppenwolf and a mysterious female character stand front and center. But what does it all mean? If you've been reading the series then you may recall Steppenwolf's appearance in the first issue of the series, but that he's since been absent from the title. Does this upcoming cover mark his return to Earth 2? We caught up with writer James Robinson to ask him who the mysterious figure in the image could be, but he sadly didn't give us a whole lot to work with.

No Caption Provided

We're keeping the identity of "the last Amazon" under wraps for now but we will reveal it shortly...Please be patient and have fun guessing! You can look forward to her kicking major ass in issue #8 of EARTH 2!

OK, so we know Steppenwolf is definitely on the cover, and if you recall back to the first issue you'll remember that Wonder Woman was killed at his hand -- so it can't be her. So, who is this mysterious new Amazon? Could it be Donna Troy? That would certainly be an interesting twist since Donna has yet to appear in comics since the start of the New 52. Not only that, but Donna was a central figure in Robinson's JUSTICE LEAGUE run just prior to DC's reboot. Regardless of who it is, we can all agree that Cinar is a talented artist and we are definitely looking forward to seeing his talents on the EARTH 2 title. Who do you think 'The Last Amazon' could be?

I had this idea for how Donna Troy could be used in the New 52, wonder if this is her and if I was close at all.

Donna was a Titan God for a while in the 90s I think, but gave it up to be with her mortal friends and husband. But I was thinking they could make her a Titan God again and have her be like Thor is in the Marvel comics. A immortal god among mortal men/heroes. Would be a fun idea and keep her different enough from Wonder Woman to still work I think.

Lots of hoping for Donna but she reminds me of Artemis.

I think it's Lyta otherwise they just would have released a colour version. Black hair would still leave it ambigious whether it was Donna or Barda but if the last Amazon is blond that would confirm her identity. Besides Lyta is the only Earth 2 Amazon.

Well since it is"the last Amazon" It has to be Donna or Artemis right? otherwise it'd be "Be Ass Chick Who Is Gonna Whoop on Everybody." Come on DC make it Donna Troy.

Her hair looks blonde from the cover, so I doubt it will be Donna, maybe Lyta?

PLEASE be Donna Troy! We deserve that.

I know there are other cool Amazon characters, but she's the only one I care about right now. If it is anyone else I will be disappointed.

I don't even care that her outfit is stripperific and she's got some sort of weird noose/whip thing that doesn't make sense. I want this to be Donna so bad.

No i want tdonna on main earth

@cameron83: I sympathize with that, I just don't think they'll ever let it happen unless she's de-powered and therefore totally unlike Wonder Woman.

I know that this post isn't really related to the amazon reveal of earth 2 but i thought id give it a shot.

Has anyone here read the Mister Terrific Series that dc released before earth 2?

It looks interesting but im unsure as to whether its worth tracking down back issues or trades.

Thanks
