Spoiler Alert: If you haven’t read Trial of the Amazons #1 or Nubia & the Amazons #6 and don’t want a major plot point spoiled, read those books before coming back to this article. And make sure to check out our spoiler-free review of Trial of the Amazons #1.

The Trial is about to begin. Amazons hailing from all corners of the globe, from the noble Themyscirans to the forgotten Bana-Mighdall to the mysterious Esquecidas, have converged on Paradise Island for a single purpose. 

A new champion is to be chosen to guard Doom’s Doorway, a portal to unimaginable evil and a threat to all life on Earth. The champion will be chosen via contest, much like the one that made Wonder Woman the Themysciran ambassador to the world of men. But just as the event is about to begin, a horrible discovery is made.

Hippolyta, mother of Diana, former Queen of the Amazons, and recent Justice League member, has been murdered.

So ended Trial of the Amazons #1, the beginning of a storyline that will incorporate every DC title under the Amazonian banner. Fortunately for readers, the story was picked up in a comic that was released the same day, in Nubia & the Amazons #6, the final issue of the limited series. 

The issue sees Nubia, the newest Queen of the Amazons, dealing with not just the loss of an influential figure, but the fact that somewhere on the island, her killer is still roaming free.

Though no one has been identified as a suspect just yet, there are plenty of characters about whom fans can speculate. The first is Queen Faruka of the Bana-Mighdall, whose open disdain for Themyscirans and brutality in battle would be perfect ingredients in making a murderer.

Next is a character that’s not Amazonian at all - in fact, we don't know exactly
