Mad? Why, sister, I'm saner than I've ever been. I see everything clearly. The Greek Gods are nothing... all praise the Dark Gods!

Synopsis for "The Dark Gods, Part Four"

Washington D.C., USA

Coming back from the planet of Zamaron where she helped the Star Sapphires, Diana reunites with her brother and they manage to stop and temporarily knock out King Best, the leader of the Dark Gods. Meanwhile, Steve Trevor informs Diana about the fact that the other gods are acting in different regions of the world: Savage Fire, goddess of War, made the South American continent a war-zone with conflicts between several nations; Mob God turned London into a city populated by people in stasis, standing still and looking at the sky, with the sick or the infants dying without no one taking care of them; Karnell turned China into a colossal bacchanalia; the God with No Name started a chain-reaction of mass suicides in Saint Petersburg.

With so many threats and the Justice League temporarily unavailable as it was absorbed inside King Best's body, Jason moves to Paraguay to have another round with Savage Fire while Diana gathers with Steve to organize a counter-attack.

The Paraguayan Skies

Diana gets an alert from A.R.G.U.S. as it seems all the Dark Gods left their position to gather in the skies of Paraguay: Diana of course understands they are targeting her brother Jason and so she catapults herself there, finding that their combined power was able to mind-control his brother, making him a pawn for them to use against Wonder Woman.
