Orana
A red-haired Amazon who challenged Princess Diana for the title of Wonder Woman. She succeeded but was killed in her first mission, battling a terrorist called Warhead, after which Diana avenged her death.
I liked her, but I guess DC didn't know what to do with Orana...oh, they did about 20 years later. She became Artemis!

The Orana storyline was one of the first in my run of WW comics...so I remember her fondly.
I think they retold the story a little better with Artemis, having by then set up the whole (unfortunately named) Bana Mighdal Amazons.
I liked the way that Artemis was growing as a character (after returning from the dead) and so I was disappointed when all the Amazons went away during the OMAC crisis...
I hope she'll be back, strong as ever, when the Paradise Island "gals" finally reappear this year...and Phillipus, too, who's always been one of my favorite supporting cast members.
