The Duke of Deception is a fictional character appearing in DC Comics publications and related media, commonly as a recurring adversary of the superhero Wonder Woman. A demigod of deceit and manipulation, the Duke was introduced as a treacherous operative of the war god Mars/Ares in 1942’s Wonder Woman #2 and would rise to become one of Wonder Woman's most persistent foes, repeatedly appearing in her adventures throughout the Golden, Silver and Bronze Age of Comics. His portrayal evolved into a somewhat mysterious figure independent of Ares, and perhaps as powerful; for the greater part of his publication history, his actual identity was never definitively established. The 2020 feature film Wonder Woman 1984 suggested that the Duke is actually Dolos, the Greek god of trickery and lies. In

  • The Duke of Deception is a fictional character appearing in DC Comics publications and related media, commonly as a recurring adversary of the superhero Wonder Woman. A demigod of deceit and manipulation, the Duke was introduced as a treacherous operative of the war god Mars/Ares in 1942’s Wonder Woman #2 and would rise to become one of Wonder Woman's most persistent foes, repeatedly appearing in her adventures throughout the Golden, Silver and Bronze Age of Comics. His portrayal evolved into a somewhat mysterious figure independent of Ares, and perhaps as powerful; for the greater part of his publication history, his actual identity was never definitively established. The 2020 feature film Wonder Woman 1984 suggested that the Duke is actually Dolos, the Greek god of trickery and lies. In 2022's Wonder Woman (volume 1) #788, writers Michael W. Conrad and Becky Cloonan confirm this; the Duke identifies himself by name as Dolos, as does Wonder Woman, suggesting unchronicled previous interactions in DC's Rebirth-era continuity. (en)
