| Synopsis | Panicking when Wonder Woman is sucked from the robot plane on the way to Paradise Island, Etta is reassured by Hippolyte, who shows in the magic sphere Wonder Woman has been taken to the past as an "idea-form" to help a young girl save her kingdom from an evil usurper. | |
| Reprint Notes | ||
| Notes | writer id by Bob Hughes 9/05 | Writer id by Bob Hughes 9/05. Idea-forms are statues of people or inventions that existed as ideas before they were realized, like DaVinci's airplane, Jules Verne's submarine, or Wonder Woman, a strong but tender woman. People with inventive or desperate minds draw cosmic rays from the idea-forms when they need help realizing their visions. In this case, Wonder Woman actually appears in the past when Annette wishes there were a woman "tender enough to understand my need but strong enough" to defeat her enemies. The statues and models are housed in a room in Hippolyte's palace called the "Storehouse of Idea-Forms." |
