Here's how the story is described:
"They have been friends and lovers, but more importantly they have been there for each other over the decades. From Steve's first moments on Paradise Island to the day that Diana left her home to join Man's World, they have worked together and fought to protect humanity. But now, Steve Trevor will be forced to face an ancient foe, and he'll have to do it alone. Where is Wonder Woman? And what will become of Steve Trevor? Find out in this thrilling, action-packed story."
"Steve and Diana's longtime friendship, despite their coming from separate worlds, is inspiring. But in this story, we'll get a chance to see Steve come face to face with a villain from Wonder Woman's past, who he'll have to overcome without her help," Seeley said.
