Gudra was one of the Valkyries and the Champion of the Norse Gods.

History

Axis Amerika

Gudra was brought to Earth during World War II by Adolf Hitler's use of the Spear of Destiny. She became a member of Axis Amerika. She killed Paula Brooks, the Tigress, and after resurrected her. Seemingly, the experiences that Paula's soul witnessed while in Valhalla changed her personality to a bad, villainous person.

Who is Wonder Woman?

Gundra was recruited by Circe as part of a large team of Wonder Woman's old foes. After a failed attack on Washington, D.C., the fight moved to Aeaea, where Gundra and the rest of the forces laid an ambush. Wonder Woman brought her allies and Gundra was taken out by Wonder Girl.

Notes

• The character Gudra was based on the Wonder Woman villain of the same name - Gundra. The difference in spelling in Young All-Stars (Volume 1) is caused by different anglicization of the original Old Norse name Gunnr/Guðr. When the character was reintroduced as a Wonder Woman villain in the present time in Who Is Wonder Woman?, the spelling Gundra was used again.
