History
Origins
The relationship between this Wonder Girl and the younger version of Wonder Woman was not fully explained at the time. The mystery of Wonder Girl's background would linger in the series until finally resolved in the 1980s.
It was revealed, four years after her introduction, that Wonder Girl had been orphaned by a fire which killed her parents. Saved by Wonder Woman, she had been taken to Paradise Island, where she was given Amazon powers by the mysterious Purple Ray. She later took the alias of Donna Troy and remained on Earth (it is interesting to note that, before she made the decision to take the name "Donna Troy" after becoming a member of the Teen Titans, she apparently had no name other than "Wonder Girl"). These revelations were published in Teen Titans.
Since the Crisis on Infinite Earths, Donna Troy's origin has been rewritten several times. The first rewrite came about when it was noticed that, in post-Crisis continuity, she had made her heroic debut before Wonder Woman. Her history was changed so that she had now been saved by the Titans of Myth, who also granted her powers. Donna was one of twelve children who were either orphans or had otherwise been cast off by their respective societies and brought together by Rhea in order to be reared as their eventual saviors. The children lived among the Titans of Myth on the ancient moon of New Cronus for years, given superhuman powers, were trained as warriors, and educated in various arts and sciences. Each one was also named after a city in ancient Greece. At the age of 13, each of the children were sent back to their respective worlds to live as normal beings in order to teach them humility and given false memories by the Titan of Memory, Mnemosyne.
Titans of Myth
However, this mental conditioning failed in one of the seeds, namely Sparta of Synriannaq. She alone remembered her time on New Cronus, and the knowledge eventually drove her mad. She conquered her home planet of Synriannaq and hunted down and destroyed the other Titan Seeds, adding their power to her own, until only herself and three others remained: Donna, Athyns of Karakkan, and Xanthi of Ozyron. Phoebe, the Titan of the Moon, sought out Donna and saved her from Sparta's agents on Earth when they attacked Titans Tower. However, because of Sparta's acquisitions of the other Seed's powers, she and the other Titans of Myth were now severely aged and weakened. Although Phoebe did regain, at least in appearance, some of her power and agelessness while in Donna's presence, it was not enough to sustain her life and she died shortly after, but not before giving Donna and the Titans the means to reach New Cronus.
After clashing with Sparta several times, Xanthi was slain saving Athyns' life and in the final conflict, Donna and Athyns succeeded in restoring the stolen power of the other Seeds to the Titans of Myth, leaving Sparta a mindless husk of her former self. In the aftermath and to honor Xanthi's memory, Athyns traveled to Ozyron to serve its citizens and, though he offered to take Sparta with him, the Titans of Myth took her with them, saying she was their responsibility, and she would remain in their care. Donna received special gifts from the restored Titans of Myth and fashioned a new costume from each of them, permanently adopting the new name of Troia.
Lord Chaos
Prior to discovering her origins, Donna got married to divorced college professor Terry Long and after meeting the Titans of Myth later found out she was pregnant. A group calling themselves the Team Titans appeared, wanting to kill her. They came from a future where her son was born with the full powers of a god and full awareness of them, which drove him mad. He instantly aged himself, killed his mother and he became a dictator known as Lord Chaos. The Team Titans travelled back to the past to kill her before he was born. Donna eventually gave birth to her son, Robert. However, to prevent this future from happening, Donna sacrificed her powers and became a normal human.
Eventually, she rethought her decision and asked the Titans of Myth to grant her powers again, but was rejected. She then joined the Darkstars. During the Zero Hour crisis, her farm in New Jersey was destroyed and all the Team Titans (which she had taken in into her home) were wiped out of existence except for Terra and Mirage, who were revealed to have been from the 20th century and not from the future. Worse still, her marriage fell apart and her now ex-husband was granted sole custody of their young son.
Donna rejoined the Titans for a time, with her Darkstar suit giving her the ability to aid them. She dated Green Lantern Kyle Rayner for awhile, but they broke up immediately following the death of her son and ex-husband in a tragic car accident. Just prior to her break up with Kyle, Donna had retired from the Darkstars, leaving her powerless once more.
Magical duplicate
Her post-Crisis origin was updated in the late 1990s. This version had it that she was originally created by the Amazon sorceress Magala as a magical duplicate of the young Princess Diana of Themyscira (a nod to the original Wonder Girl) to be a playmate for Diana, who was previously the only child on the island. However, Donna was soon kidnapped by the Dark Angel (a World War II villainess and sworn enemy of Queen Hippolyta, Diana's mother), who thought the girl was Diana.
Dark Angel cursed Donna to live endless variants of a life characterized by suffering, with her life being restarted and erased from the world's memory when Donna was at her lowest. Even Donna would forget her past lives until the moment at which Dark Angel would arrive to restart her life, at which point she would immediately recall all of her past suffering.
With the help of Wonder Woman, Hippolyta, and the third Flash (her former Titans teammate, Wally West), the only people who remembered the previous version, Donna was restored. Somehow, she also regained her powers, presumably because that was how Wally remembered her. Initially, she was concerned that she was not the "same" Donna, but an idealized form based on Wally's memories. She has since accepted that this is not the case.
Shortly afterwards, the Titans gathered together to save their friend Cyborg. They came into conflict with the JLA, but they saved their friend. After that, the original five Titans, including Troia, decided to re-form the team. A subsequent battle with Dark Angel suggested her constant rewriting of Donna's history involved Hypertime. It is not clear how this ties in with later revelations.
Realizing that Donna was created from a portion of Diana's soul, Queen Hippolyta accepted Donna as a blood-related daughter and held a coronation on Themyscira to formally introduce Donna as the second princess of Paradise Island. This aspect brought Donna more in-line with her Pre-Crisis Themysciran origins.
She was apparently killed by a rogue Superman robot in the Titans/Young Justice crossover "Graduation Day." However, in June 2005, DC Comics released The Return of Donna Troy, a four-issue miniseries written by Phil Jimenez with art by José Luis García-López and George Pérez which marked the resurrection of Donna Troy and cleared up her multiple origins.
Revelations
Donna Troy has now discovered that like every other person after the Crisis on Infinite Earths, she is a merger of every alternate version of Donna Troy in the Multiverse. Unlike everyone else, Donna is the repository of knowledge of every alternate universe version of herself and remembers the original Multiverse. She learned that her counterpart on Earth-Two was saved by a firefighter and was raised in an orphanage, while her Earth-S counterpart died in the fire. She also discovered that her sworn enemy of the past, Dark Angel, was in fact the Donna Troy of Earth-Seven, saved from certain death by the Anti-Monitor, as the Monitor had saved Harbinger, who was yet another alternate counterpart. When the Multiverse was reconfigured in one single Universe, Dark Angel, who had somehow escaped the compression of every Donna Troy into one single person in the new Earth, sought to kill her (every life she forced her to relive was in fact an aspect of an alternate Donna) as a way to avoid the merging and remain the last one standing. When she was defeated, Donna became the real sum of every Donna Troy that existed on every Earth, a living key to the lost Multiverse.
Her role in Infinite Crisis is, at the end of The Return of Donna Troy, fully stated: Donna had been reborn after her death at the hands of the Superman android. The Titans of Myth, realizing that she was the child who was destined to save them from some impending threat, brought her to New Cronus and implanted false memories within her mind to make her believe she was the original Goddess of the Moon and wife of Coeus. The Titans of Myth incited war between other worlds near New Cronus in order to gain new worshippers. They would then use the combined power of their collective faith to open a passageway into another reality, where they would be safe from destruction. Donna was another means to that end until she was found by the Titans and The Outsiders who restored her true memories.
This was not without casualties, however. Sparta (who was restored to full mental health and stripped of the bulk of her power) had been made an officer in the Titans of Myth's royal military. She was sacrificed by the Titans of Myth in an attempt to lay siege to the planet, Minosyss, which housed a Sun-Eater factory miles beneath its surface. But Sparta's death had inadvertently helped trigger Donna's memory restoration. Athyns had also reappeared by this time, and aided the heroes and the Mynossian resistance in battling the Titans of Myth. It was then that Hyperion, the Titan of the Sun, revealed Donna's true origins to her and ordered her to open a passageway into another reality by means of a dimensional nexus that once served as a gateway to the Multiverse itself, within the Sun-Eater factory's core, which turned out to be the Titans of Myth's real target.
Donna did so, but fearing they would simply continue with their power-mad ambitions, she banished most of them into Tartarus. However, Hyperion and his wife, Thia, were warned of the deception at the last moment. Enraged, they turned on Donna, intending to kill her for the betrayal, but Coeus activated the Sun-Eater to save her and Arsenal. As the Sun-Eater began absorbing their vast solar energies, Hyperion and Thia tried to escape through the Nexus, but they were both torn apart by the combined forces of the Nexus' dimensional pull and the Sun-Eater's power. Coeus, who had learned humility and compassion from Donna, vowed to guard the gateway to make certain the other Titans of Myth remained imprisoned forever.
Donna returned to the now-barren New Cronus where she shared a joyful reunion with Wonder Woman. Now she is charged with the task of being the new Guardian of the Universe Orb, the Multiverse Chronicles collected by Harbinger. In that role, she has unearthed the startling discovery of an impending doom that is falling on the DC Universe, a doom she cannot avoid alone. Leaving Nightwing behind on Earth, she decided to take with her to New Cronus several heroes including Animal Man, Cyborg, Firestorm III, Herald, Bumblebee, Red Tornado, Shift, Green Lanterns Alan Scott, Kyle Rayner and Kilowog, Jade, Starfire and Supergirl amongst others in a desperate attempt to save her universe from a menace coming from a mysterious rip in space (caused by Alexander Luthor, Jr. as a part of his plan), which was the cause of an intergalatic war. Donna's team managed to aid in ending the conflict, but things took a dangerous turn when Alexander used the previously mentioned rip to re-create Earth-Two and later the Multiverse.
Donna, along with Kyle Rayner (now called Ion), led the team to attack Alexander Luthor through his space rift, giving Nightwing, Superboy and Wonder Girl the time needed to destroy Alexander's device, and save the two Supermen and Wonder Woman from being merged with their Earth-Three counterparts. Though most of the team vanished when they attempted to leave via portal opened by Mal Duncan and Adam Strange, she returned to Earth shortly after the Battle of Metropolis, and provided a "junior red-sun eater" to the Green Lantern Corps in which to imprison Superboy-Prime at the end of the battle on Mogo.
In the series 52, Cyborg, Herald, Alan Scott, Bumblebee, Hawkgirl and Firestorm were all returned to Earth although gravely injured, while other heroes such as Supergirl, Starfire, Animal Man and Adam Strange were lost in space. In the History of the DC Universe backup feature, when Donna and the artificial intelligence in charge of Harbinger's historical records finished her task of reviewing the DC Universe's history, both the artificial intelligence and one of the new Monitors revealed to her that the current timeline has diverged from its rightful path, in which Donna herself, instead of Jade, should have sacrificed herself for Kyle Rayner.
One Year Later
One Year Later, Donna Troy has assumed the mantle of Wonder Woman. Diana stepped down following the Crisis, feeling the need to 'find out who Diana is'. Although Diana's pre-Crisis on Infinite Earths Silver Age career has been brought back into continuity after Infinite Crisis, Donna's post-Infinite Crisis origin seems to be essentially the same as her post-Crisis on Infinite Earths one. Wonder Woman #1 opens with Donna stating: "I was born of magic," and the character is present at the time of Diana's departure from Themyscira. Donna is referred to as Diana's biological sister throughout (Donna's original Silver Age backstory depicted her as having been brought to Themyscira later in her life, and not being related to Diana.) In a flashback, Donna wears her star-spangled Titan garments. In the present timeline of Wonder Woman #1, the only sign of her Titan regalia is a bracelet that forms part of her Wonder Woman armor.
In the midst of a fight with Cheetah and Giganta, Donna is overwhelmed when Doctor Psycho manipulates her into believing that Diana is attacking her with deadly force. At the same time, Diana, posing as a government agent, arrives on the scene. Subsequent issues have shown Diana's attempts to rescue Donna, with the revelation that Circe is behind the attacks and capture.

Powers
Known Powers: Donna Troy possesses similar powers to those of Diana. She has enhanced strength, speed, endurance, durability, flight, an affinity with animals, and is able to sense the truth. She also seems to have an empathic link to Diana.
- Strength: Like the Titans of olden Greek mythos, Donna has been gifted with superhuman strength, stamina and endurance, likened to that of the Earth itself, a blessing from Demeter, the Earth Goddess. Surpassed by only a few, Donna is nearly as strong as her sister Diana, and just as resistant and enduring. Donna is able to lift up to 150,000 tons (or over 300 million pounds approximately), which is enough to pick up basically any man-made object on the planet.
- Speed/Flight: The 'Trial of the Flashing Thunder', where only one blessed by Hermes can hope to pass unscathed, even more so victoriously, is one of the tests performed by the Amazons to choose their champion, and both Diana and Donna have been able to easily accomplish this task. Lightning Reflexes, phenomenal speed, and the gift of flight, are the gifts bestowed by the Divine Messenger of the Olympian gods. Able to reach the speed of sound, Donna is, in fact, a remarkable aerial combatant, capable of pulling off acrobatic stunts and quick moves in the air, both naturally and smoothly. Her reaction times are excellent, allowing her to even block and dodge bullets with her bracelets, much like her sister Diana does. This magical blessing allows her to act and move faster, even to the point of making it difficult for an observer to follow her movements.
- Endurance: The blessings of immortality are a gift granted to the amazons by the gods, for as long as they remain on the island of Themyscira. Since Donna, same as her sister Diana, has been directly touched by both the Titans of Myth, and the Greek Gods through her Amazonian heritage, she is able to maintain a trace of this power even when she is not dwelling on Paradise island; perhaps the gods saw fit to compensate for the life-death-rebirth cycle she had to endure for so long.
- Durability: Donna has an immunological system that is much more resilient and resistant than that of a normal human. Closely related to the blessings of Demeter that she shares with her sister Diana, her body can fight off diseases and poisons that would normally take down any other person. The stamina of the Earth, a blessing from Gaea herself, this does not mean she cannot be sick, ever, but that unless the virus or poison is extremely strong, Donna is able to just shrug it off and keep going, since her immune system will fight it off easily.
- Animal Kinship: Aside from the boost to her excellent tracking skills that this enhanced senses give Donna, another part of her 'gift' is an affinity with animals, from the tame, house-broken pets, to the wild animals of jungle, forest and waters. There is an instinctive rapport between them, as Donna is able to make herself understood by them and also understand them in return, by means of simple gestures and general body language, being able to soothe and calm them, unless there is an outward influence affecting the creatures.
- The Purity of Truth: Donna's touch is now capable of repelling, or banishing creatures of pure evil, like Dark Angel, or Goth. Though ineffective against people who are motivated by power or greed, or misguided like the newest incarnation of Red Panzer, it is against those who thrive on evil beyond any hope of redemption that Donna's touch is truly effective.
- Psychic Bond: There is a psychic connection shared by Diana and Donna, that comes into being whenever one of them is in great stress or peril, allowing the mystical twin sisters to sense the other's state of mind. This is not any type of mind reading, since the bond just conveys a general idea, but that is enough for any one of them to know that something is greatly disturbing the other.
The bond has a clear, discernible effect, since a sudden, strong impression can be felt like a solid hit to the head, capable of disorienting the one feeling it for a few seconds, whereas a subtle signal can put the other on guard, like a sort of danger sense, alerting one sister that something is wrong with the other, but not giving any specific details.
Known Abilities: Donna Troy is an excellent combatant. She currently possesses the knowledge of every alternate universe version of herself and remembers the original multi verse as well as its history.
Strength Level: Strength level unknown (Fluctuates).
Weaknesses:
- Despite her tough exterior, Donna holds within her a barrier of glass. still stricken with grief after the death of her husband and son, she was left to deal and let pass with these emotions. Someone unscrupulous, armed with this knowledge might be able to manipulate Donna, using these strong emotions against her.
- Donna's invulnerability has a big Achilles' Heel: her susceptibility to piercing objects. While she is able to sustain incredible amounts of blunt damage, Donna is as prone to be killed by a well-placed piercing attack as anyone else. Her magically-enhanced physique is able to make her withstand the pain and wait a bit longer to get some treatment, but in the end, she can be gravely injured, or even killed by a sword thrust, or even bullets she is not able to deflect with her magical bracers.
- The flip side of caring too much, is wanting to protect too much as well. Donna can get rather overprotective with those she loves and calls friends or family, placing herself in the way of danger in order to avoid them getting hurt. Of course, this might lead to her getting badly banged up herself, or perhaps to loose the concentration needed in the heat of battle, if she sees someone she cares for get hurt.
- Donna is not one to usually strike at full force. Normally, she is one of those who keep telling Starfire to tone things down, so as not to kill or maim someone. Now that her powers have increased considerably, making her almost on par with her mighty sister Wonder Woman, she pulls her punches even more, for fear of causing irreparable damage to her enemies, as she seeks to stop them, not kill them. This might cause Donna to appear somewhat underrated, not only when compared to her sister, but in general terms, as Donna seldom uses her abilities to the fullest. Also, she might not be quite aware of her own limits, since all of Donna's powers have been in flux lately, increasing more as she gets more in touch with her true nature. So, that is just another reason for Donna to pull her punches.
