Themyscira (DC Comics) Themyscira is the theocracy and capital city that serves as the Amazon peoples' government and place of origin for Wonder Woman. The name for the entire archipelago became "The Paradise Islands", when the city was renamed "Themyscira" with the character's February 1987 relaunch in Wonder Woman (vol. 2) #1.[2] Both the island and city are named after the mythological city of Themiscyra, the capital of the Amazon tribe in Greek mythology.
