Synopsis: Steve Trevor finds himself trapped in the heart of Urzkartaga's darkness, with Wonder Woman and Cheetah the only hope of rescue for him and his men. But how far can Cheetah be trusted?

Notes: Sasha refers to Trevor as "Master Chief". This is a serious error, either by her, or by the writer. Master Chief is an enlisted rank in the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Coast Guard. To be called this, Trevor, a Colonel by most other accounts, would have to change services and take a huge demotion.

My breakdown of issue 5

Issue 5 has a lot going on in it and is the first we start seeing a more complicated story line with many ends connecting together.

We see Commander Etta Candy going to the home of Director Sasha Bordeaux to asses her of the situation in Bwunda and Steve and his men are missing. Towards the end we see Sasha what appears to be possessed and is the vessel to communicate with someone called Doctor that is looking to capture Wonder Woman.

Steve is a hostage to Colonel Cadulo who is planning to be the avatar for Bouda by making Steve the vessel of his transformation. Cadulo also is intent to find out Steve’s connection to Wonder Woman as well.

Wonder Woman and Cheetah wake their way through the jungle to the home of Bouda and find Steve’s men caged, naturally the issue ends with Wonder Woman asking, “Where is Steve?”

Lots of great dialogue in this issue and I must also point out that Wonder Woman is not only concerned with finding her way back to Themyscira but that she feels other things seem wrong within her memory, as if she has been deceived and that deception grows. Looks like a lot of great story telling is about to take place real soon…
