Synopsis:
Mars plans an attack on Paradise Island. He trains a group of boys on the planet Daxo to despise the Amazons, then unleashes them in a fleet of ships. Hippolyte alerts Wonder Woman who hides the island and delays the attack using a decoy. However, she is forced to hold back her full strength because the attackers are only children.
Hippolyte also summons Astra, leader of the Infantas. The Infantas are former children banished and left to die by their parents. Hippolyte and the Amazons have rescued them over the years and taken them to another planet to live in peace. Due to conditions on the planet, the children age very slowly, so despite living for centuries they still appear to be children.
Astra brings her followers to Earth to aid Wonder Woman. The stop the boys from Daxo, while Wonder Woman forces Mars himself to flee. The boys are then taken back to Infantas to be retrained in love and peace.
