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:
The Duke of Deception returns to Earth with a new plot of conquest. Using a magical mask, he makes Wonder Girl ugly. She is humiliated when she visits both Mer-Boy and Bird-Boy's people. She returns to Paradise Island where everyone is shocked by her new look. Wonder Girl then goes berserk, until her mother finally reasons with her.
Regretting her action, Wonder Girl flees into the air where she encounters the Duke of Deception. The Duke plans to use Wonder Girl to conquer her family. Wonder Girl manages to escape and rejoin her family. Then they thwart the Duke's invasion attempt. Amazon surgeons then restore Wonder Girl's natural appearance using another of the Duke's masks.
