Synopsis for "Come Back to Me, Part Seven: A Royal Pain"

This story is reprinted from Wonder Woman Giant #2.

The TSB Federation tells Princess Sibella she is under arrest and will be killed along with those accompanying her if she doesn't surrender peacefully. Diana tells Steve not to intervene as they're outmatched, while Sibella states she doesn't remember stealing her starship along with the crew and states the people with her have nothing to do with it. The TSB Federation soldiers realize they're telling the truth but regardless have to arrest her. Sibella's robots rush to stop them despite her telling them not to, and she gets knocked out by them after they override her command to desist from attacking.

Diana and her compatriots run away during the firefight, but the TSB soldiers send flying spinning blades after them. She tells everyone to split up to evade them more easily and falls off a cliff's edge along with Steve while escaping a blade. After emerging out of the water, she is unable to find Steve and dives underwater to search for him. She rescues him after finding him drowning and takes him to a beach where he wakes up in the morning. Diana tells him that though they were able to escape, they've lost contact with the others.

As they go to find their compatriots, Steve learns Diana's ankle has healed and time on the island passes faster while people from different timelines are showing up here. She thinks that what happened to them and others happened for a purpose, stating how she lost him and then how she was made to follow him while taking away her powers, how Jonah lost Tallulah, with strange incidents happening every time they get some relief. Steve wonders if it's the same as the TV show about a similar TV entertainment show, making Diana realize they're in a game for others' entrainment. They soon come upon Atlantis which has mysteriously appeared near the island and Aquaman battling the monsters attacking it.

Two mysterious people who are watching what's happening praise the choices picked for the island and state it's time. As Aquaman spots Diana, he gets thrown far away by a monster before they can help. Steve tells Diana to run as they get attacked, but get mysteriously teleported to a spaceship before they can be harmed. As they fall unconscious, they are placed in cryostasis along with their comrades who have also been abducted.

Synopsis for "Come Back to Me, Part Eight: Spar Among the Stars"

This story is reprinted from Wonder Woman Giant #3.

The aliens state that the capture of the fighters from the island along with the princess Sibella will provide them with a good sum. As they talk, one of them gets pierced through his chest by a mysterious small projectile and the other gets pierced through his head as he tries to protect the princess. The surviving alien seals the room and Diana who awakes from her sleep, realizes what's happening. She spots that the hull of the spaceship has been pierced and quickly seals it with a giant metal slab. As Cheetah and Sibella awake, the latter realizes that Diana saved them by sealing the hull.

As Cheetah attacks Wonder Woman, she is subdued and is only released upon agreeing to calm down as Diana states she is not the one she should be fighting. Diana takes back her lasso from he and tells Sibella that her powers seem to have returned. Sibells states that the sleep chambers heal one's body and the aliens transporting them are Ghiskarri bounty hunters. The three women decide to take the ship though Sibella states that the pods of others can't be opened and they'll need to subdue four more Ghiskarris to take control.

Diana stops her compatriots from firing their guns after spotting two Ghiskarris and subdues them silently, before stopping Cheetah from executing them. Sibella expresses disgust at Cheetah wanting to kill and verbally spars with her causing her to leave. As the ship's captain tanh tells the pilot to inform the Arena of Death about their valuable captives, Cheetah teels them to prepare to die. Diana and Sibella rush to stop her are too late. Diana grabs Barbara in anger but is told by Sibella to worry about getting away, as they will be in trouble once the staff of Arena of Death learns about the dead bounty hunters.

The ship is however unable to turn around as the arena's tractor beam has already locked on to it and Sibella decides to take Diana and Cheetah to the trophy room in order to dress up in their collected gear. Meanwhile the Arena guards come out to collect the captives and after noticing that no one inside is responding are told by their cyborg boss Rigg to be ready for any skirmishes. As Rigg orders them to force open the door, the three women come out dressed up in the gear collected by the bounty hunters and demand they be taken to meet with the leader of the arena.
