DC Timeline 12



DC Timeline 12 is the 12th of 61 universes in the DC portion of the Multiverse. This universe debuted in the New Original Wonder Woman in 1975.

History
In 1941, the United States had already entered armed conflict on the side of the Allied Powers in World War II, fighting mainly against Nazi Occupied Germany. By 1942, Steve Trevor is already heralded in his home country as a hero of the war. This angers the Nazis who actively target Trevor whenever they can. Near the end of the 1941, during a aerial battle, Steve's fighter plane crashes and Steve himself winds up on an island that does not show up on any map. It is Paradise Island and one of the locals who discovers him is Diana. After having the truth of Steve's landing revealed to them, Queen Hippolyta holds a contest to see who will accompany Steve back to Man's World and join in his struggle against the Axis Powers. The contest is won by Diana and she becomes Wonder Woman.

Throughout 1942 especially, Wonder Woman deals with a variety of Nazi villains and Fifth Columnists. After the war, Diana returns home to Paradise Island and remains there until 1977, when fate would intervene in the form of Steve Trevor Jr being aboard a plane in distress and Diana saving the day. This leads to Wonder Woman's return to Man's World and Diana Prince now working for the IADC or Inter-Agency Defense Command'''. She works missions for the IADC for the next few years before returning home once again.

Danaverse Connection
Wonder Woman is the founder of the Council of Wonder and serves along her sister, Drusilla aka Wonder Girl. Over time, Wonder Woman brought women from Man's World to live on Paradise Island as honorary Amazons, including Fausta Grables, Carolyn Hamilton, and a young Amadonna.

Information
In 1974, ABC aired Wonder Woman, starring Cathy Lee Crosby which was meant to serve as a pilot movie for an eventual series, but the series fell through. In 1975, Warner Bros regrouped with the New Original Wonder Woman starring Lynda Carter, in the more familiar looking Wonder Woman suit. An instant hit, this lead to the Wonder Woman series which aired on ABC for Season 1 and then Seasons 2 and 3 on CBS. At least spinoffs were teased, one featuring Wonder Girl and the other, featuring Amadonna, but neither came to pass.

In the comics, characters from this universe have interacted not only with characters from DC Timeline 7, but also the Bionic Woman TV series. None of these stories are considered canon in the Danaverse.
