Wonder Woman is no stranger to shocking truths being revealed. She originally believed her mother, Hippolyta, created her from clay on Themyscira. Later she found out her father was really Zeus, and the story was a cover to protect from Zeus' wife Hera. In the recent Darkseid War arc in the pages of Justice League, Myrina Black is dying and reveals a secret to Diana with her last words. Everything is about to change for Wonder Woman.

There will be spoilers for Justice League #50 and DC Universe: Rebirth #1 below.

Myrina Black was present the day Wonder Woman was born. Moments after the birth, the Queen of the Amazons screamed. There was another baby on the way.

Wonder Woman having a twin isn't really a big deal. What makes this shocking is the second baby was a boy.

Themyscira has always been the home of the Amazons. No man is allowed to set foot on the island. When Steve Trevor's plane crashed and Diana rescued him, he was the first man on the island. Now, that is no longer true.

Wonder Woman will have to find out what happened to her brother Jason. Was he kept as a dark secret of the Queen and island because he was male? Where has he been all this time? There's no telling what Jason's powers are or where his allegiances may lie. Wonder Woman also discovered there are more lies about the island. Everything Wonder Woman thought she knew is about to change. With her mother dead, her journey for the truth is about to begin.
