This alternate universe version of Wonder Woman is evil and terrorizes Earth.
Silver Age Background
Super-Woman was born into the partially "reversed" universe of Earth-Three.[1]
Similar to the story of Wonder Woman, Super-Woman was a known Amazon and has all the powers and abilities of the Amazons. But unlike Princess Diana who was a recognized leader of the Amazons, this Amazon was a renegade who left Paradise Island on her own accord after finding out about the outside world. It was also known that the Amazons of Earth 3 never tried to recall her back from the outside world despite all the intervening years Super-Woman was active.
Superwoman was a member of the Crime Syndicate of America, a villainous counterpart of the Justice League of America.

Notes
- The name "Superwoman" was originally copyrighted by Detective Comics[2]
- The first true appearance of Superwoman, which is usually thought to have been one of many trial runs for the future introduction of Kara Zor-El as Supergirl years later, was printed in Action Comics.[3] in May 1943.
- Super-Woman first appeared as a member of the Crime Syndicate of America in publications by DC Comics in Justice League of America Vol. 1, #29[4] in August 1964.
- This version was created by Gardner Fox and Mike Sekowsky.
- It is never stated that this version of the Amazon from Paradise Island, is actually Princess Diana. Her specific birth name and original identity was never revealed in-story, though some readers suggest that Diana of Earth-Three did parallel the Pre-Crisis Earth-TWO Wonder Woman and may therefore share the same back story.
