Of naturally , that ’s never stopped Johns before .

Wonder Woman’s Secret Twin Brother
The Book of Revelation that Diana was not an only child came in the closure second of the " Darkseid War " storyline , when she had the chance to pick up the final words of a woman who had once been a loyal bravo of Queen Hippolyta . Not only had this bravo , Myrina , given nascence to her own daughter the same night Diana come into the humankind , but she had witnessed it firsthand . Witnessed the birth of Diana … and the twin brother who presently followed . She hear only that this crony had been named Jason before take flight the island , unsure even if the boy had lived , been killed soon after to keep the enigma , or been banished into the world incognizant of his honest bloodline .
Even without knowing the answers to those questions ( but understandably assume the boy grew into a homo , or else there ’s no actual story ) , Diana soon focused her aid on other crisis . Strangely enough , it is n’t Jason , or even another Amazon who at long last break Diana her first lead to her brother ’s identity .

Brother & Sister Are Reunited
In the latestWonder Woman#33 the story has yet to work up beyond Diana ’s discovery of Jason , working on a fishing sauceboat as part of his humble life on the coast of the Aegean Sea . The forged news is that Darkseid know Jason ’s whereabouts as well . The evenworsenews is that Darkseid ’s girl , Grail , is now working with the father she attempt to kill in " Darkseid War . " And even if the comedian has yet to confirm our suspicions , it seems strange for her to suddenly blank out the entire reasonableness that anyone found out about Jason in the first place . It was all part of a prophecy Grail tried to lend to fruition , and now seems poise to succeed where she was sabotaged before .
The divination spoke of the first man to place substructure on Themyscira being ‘ The Chosen One . ’ What that man would be " Chosen " for was never revealed , but the plot failed when Steve Trevor was eventually let on to be thesecondman on Themyscira - Jason being the first . Grail may arrogate to be working in full partnership with her founder , but thetrue’Chosen One ' being dropped into her lap may be too tempting for her to jib .
Add in the fact that Jason may portion out descent with Diana , but not necessarily her gallantry or unwavering formation , and the DC Universe could have a problem on its hand . How will Jason respond to learning he ’s the son of Zeus and Hippolyta ? Does he already know ? What hugger-mugger prophecy may he be capable to finish or withstand ?
All these questions and more will hopefully be answered in the hebdomad to come . Assuming Grail does n’t succeed in subdue the world before then .
