Synopsis for "Shadows and Eclipses"

Wonder Woman is scaling a building to convince a member of the terrosit group The Altered Strain to surrender. On the ground, the media films the event and White Magician arrives, and casts a fear spell to stop the terrorist, which goes awry and affets everyone on the roof. Mrs. Cholimsky, one of the hostages, saves Wonder Woman, and the White Magician invites Diana to dinner at his mansion.

During dinner and a tour of the house, Randolph does his best to provoke anger in Diana, to no avail. He eventually slips an armlet containing one of Eclipso's black diamonds onto her arm, and shows her a vision of Paradise Island being enslaved. Theis angers Diana and Eclipso takes over her body. Randolph attempts to trap the eclipsed Diana so he can feed off the mystical abilities the pair have, but they break free and begin to pursue Randolph, destroying his mansion and nearly killing his paramour, Cassie Arnold, in the process. Randolph fakes his death and the eclipsed Diana flies off towards the moon.
