Donna Troy debuted as Wonder Girl in 1965’sThe Brave and the Bold#60 by Bob Haney and Bruno Premiani, and since then she’s made a name for herself as a founding member of the Teen Titans.

The Titans' Contingency Plan for Starfire & Donna Troy Is Weirdly Heartwarming
Nightwing’s contingency plan for Starfire and Wonder Girl Donna Troy is as smart as it is heartwarming and is everything these two BFFs deserve.
Jimenez’s take on Wonder Girl will center Donna beyond her other affiliations with DC heroes, and based on his synopsis, it seems to be a continuation of her storyline fromTales of the Titans#3 by Steve Orlando and Katherine Lobo, which follows Donna as she integrates her work as a photographer into her Wonder Girl identity in order to take down Baron Bedlam’s militia. At the end of the issue,Donna receives a letter from a man who claims to be her father,informing Jimenez’s exploration of how this revelation will impact Wonder Girl’s origin.
Our Take on How Wonder Girl’s New Comic May Finally Streamline Her Convoluted Origin
Donna Troy’s Official Backstory Will Be Solidified At Long Last
Wonder Girl, for all of her accomplishments, lacks a consistent backstory in DC lore. Donna Troy’s origin has undergone countless changes over the years, with her first being Wonder Woman’s younger sister before getting rewritten as a genetically engineered clone.In more recent attempts to make sense of her past, Donna is a clay duplicate of Diana, mirroringWonder Woman’s clay origin. That version of her origin, however, is now retconned by the introduction of her possible father. Hopefully, Phil Jimenez’sWonder Girlstory will streamline Donna Troy’s history once it gets released by DC Comics.
