History
After helping the Superman Revenge Squad attack Superman, it is revealed that Wonder-Man was, in fact, a Superman Robot named Ajax, converted by the Squad into a sophisticated android to serve them against their enemy.

Even though other versions of the character may have appeared, this information does not apply to those versions.
