Indexer Notes

-Wonder Woman explains that the magical nature of her lasso allows it to grow to any length.
-Athena says that Orana was killed on her first day as the new Wonder Woman, and yet Orana herself relates at the beginning of Wonder Woman (DC, 1942 series) #251 that she had been in Man's World for two weeks.
-Wonder Woman notes that she loves her life as Diana Prince, and her alter ego's accomplishments are just as important to her as Wonder Woman's.
