Synopsis for "The Mystery of the Atom World"
Diana investigates an odd radiation source and finds a strange flying thing which looks like a miniature sun. She brings it to Paula's secret laboratory under Holliday College. When they and the Holliday Girls examine it they discover it is covered with microscopic humanoid figures. Suddenly the sphere zooms away and the laboratory is filled with gas that shrinks the ladies down. They are captured and brought before Queen Atomia, the scientist ruler of the small craft, and the cruel queen orders them remade into her cybernetic slaves. Wonder Woman is able to free them all by telepathically ordering Atomia's slaves to do so, as she has modified their minds to obey her every telepathic command. After their escape and return to their normal size they attempt to find and secure Atomia's U-235, but the crafty scientist has hidden her mini mobile laboratory in Wonder Woman's hair and come to the false conclusion that Wonder Woman destroyed it.
Atomia then destroys Paula's lab equipment, enlarges U-235 and goes to Uranium mines to steal uranium and burn the nearby towns. Steve and Diana fly to help evacuate the innocents in her path, and her attempt to recapture Diana results in Di getting a chance to lasso Atomia. She takes Atomia to Reformation Island for imprisonment but Atomia manages escape on the way there using her telepathically controlled cybernetic slaves. She tries attacking the Holliday Girls but is recaptured and spirited away to Reformation Island. Once there she manages to get out of her mind controlling Venus Girdle but is restrained before she can propertly escape and Aphrodite welds her into a Venus Girdle permanently and orders her to care for her former slaves, who cannot be saved from their state even through Amazonian science.
