Synopsis:
Wonder Woman travels to Egypt to stop the nosecone of a missile from landing in the desert. After completing her mission, Wonder Woman joins Steve Trevor on a tour of the pyramids.

Wonder Woman bears a striking resemblance to Queen Mikra a legendary ruler. When she approaches a sphinx, her appearance causes it to come to life. The sphinx is joined by others who plan an invasion in the name of Queen Mikra, whom they believe has returned.

At the same time, archaeologists uncover the tomb of the real Queen Mikra. She comes back to life and takes control of the sphinx army. Wonder Woman is entombed by the sphinxes, but she escapes and builds her own sphinx to destroy the others. After the sphinxes are destroyed, Queen Mikra crumbles into dust.
