** In his "Alan Moore's Writing for Comics!" essay, Alan Moore revealed the story was supposed to feature ComicBook/{{Supergirl}} in Franchise/WonderWoman's role, but he wasn't allowed to use the former due to her impending death: "...I originally wanted to use Supergirl but then Julie Schwartz informed me that she'd be popping her bright red clogs during Crisis on Infinite Earths and suggested that I use Wonder Woman instead."
