Themyscira

From Smallville Wiki

Themyscira is a mythical island of amazons located somewhere in the Mediterranean sea near to Greece.

In early 2004, the Themyscira Queen left the island in order to address the Vatican in Rome. (Asylum)

[edit] In the Comics

It was primarily known as Paradise Island until revisions to the Wonder Woman character took place in the 1980s. It is the home to the super hero Wonder Woman and her fellow Amazonians, including her mother Queen Hippolyte. It was created by the Goddess' of Mount Olympus as a home for their powerful female army. Princess Diana left Themyscira to "Man's World" where she became known as Wonder Woman.

• Along with Metropolis, Star City, Edge City, Blüdhaven,Keystone City, Coast City, and Gotham City it is one of the confirmed DC Comics locales to be present in the world of Smallville.
