Synopsis:
In a dispute between Mars and Aphrodite, Mars creates an agent called the Crimson Centipede to battle Aphrodite's agent Wonder Woman. Wonder Woman is unable to beat her opponent during their first two encounters. She is discouraged by her failures, but tries again.

During her third encounter with the Centipede, Wonder Woman is knocked unconscious while trying to protect Steve. The Centipede then removes her bracelets which he believes will make her vulnerable to his attacks. Instead, without her bracelets, Wonder Woman's fury goes uncontrolled. She defeats the Centipede in a rampage, then continues by destroying nearby buildings. Steve is able to restore order by putting Wonder Woman's bracelets back on her wrists.
