Using Amazon magic, Wonder Woman is able to appear as Wonder Tot, Wonder Girl, and Wonder Woman at the same time. Presumedly, the earlier selves have been temporarily displaced in time.
Synopsis:
Morpheus grants Wonder Woman the ability to see the wishes of three people granted. She decides to see the wishes of Mr. Genie, Mer-Boy, and the Duke of Deception. In each case the person’s wish is granted, but it turns out unfavorably. Fortunately the wishes are granted by Morpheus in a dream, so they never really take place.
