Fan can relive the ultimate animated Amazon adventure as Warner Bros. Home Entertainment released Wonder Woman: Commemorative Edition — a fresh treatment of Lauren Montgomery’s much-lauded DC Universe Original Movie. The feature-length, PG-13 film will launch on Digital HD on May 2, followed by Blu-ray Combo Pack (SRP $24.98) and DVD ($19.98) versions on May 16.

Meanwhile, Ares, the god of war, has escaped his imprisonment by the Amazons and decides to exact revenge by starting a World War that will last for centuries and destroy all life on Earth — and it’s up to Diana to stop him.
