Greaterwell-documentedDC Comics continuityAmazons (DC Comics)Themyscira (fictional)Bana‑Mighdall (fictional)

A fictional Amazon superheroine from DC Comics, introduced as a rival to Princess Diana of Themyscira who briefly took on the mantle of Wonder Woman, died fulfilling a prophecy, was sent to the Underworld, and later returned to life.

Origin

Artemis of Bana‑Mighdall was created for DC Comics by William Messner-Loebs and Mike Deodato and debuted in Wonder Woman #90. Within DC's internal mythos she is an Amazon from the Bana‑Mighdall tribe who entered into rivalry with Princess Diana of Themyscira. That rivalry culminated in Artemis briefly succeeding Diana as Wonder Woman; during that tenure Artemis was killed, an event presented in the comics as fulfilling a prophecy that Wonder Woman would die. After her death she was sent to the Underworld and was later returned to the world of the living, making her arc one of succession, death, and resurrection within the comic-book narrative.
