Dirk Werner Nowitzki (born June 19, 1978) is a German professional basketball player for the Dallas Mavericks of the National Basketball Association (NBA). An alumnus of Röntgen Gymnasium and the DJK Würzburg basketball club, Nowitzki was taken as the ninth pick in the 1998 NBA Draft by the Milwaukee Bucks and immediately traded to the Mavericks, where he has played since. A 7 ft 0 in (2.13 m) power forward, he has the athleticism and shooting ability to play either center or small forward. He is considered one of the greatest power forwards in NBA history. Nowitzki has led the Mavericks to 12 consecutive NBA Playoffs (2001–2012), including the franchise's first Finals appearance in 2006 and only championship in 2011. He is an 11-time All-Star, a 12-time All-NBA Team member, and the first European-born player to win the NBA Most Valuable Player Award. He is the first Maverick voted onto an All-NBA Team and holds several all-time Mavericks franchise records. Nowitzki is the only NBA player to get 100 blocks and 150 3-pointers in a single season, and one of four to average more than 25 points and 10 rebounds in the NBA playoffs, only Nowitzki and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar recording four consecutive 30-point, 15-rebound post-season games.
Set on the hidden island of Themyscira, Paradise Lost begins when a faction of Amazons led by the bitter warrior Bana-Mighdall seeks greater power and influence among their people. Long-standing tensions between different Amazon tribes erupt into open conflict, throwing the peaceful paradise into chaos. As civil war spreads across the island, Wonder Woman is forced to confront divisions within her own culture. Ancient rivalries, political betrayals, and questions about leadership threaten to destroy everything the Amazons have built. The conflict attracts the attention of powerful gods and mystical forces, raising the stakes far beyond a simple struggle for power. While Queen Hippolyta tries to hold her nation together, Diana fights to prevent the Amazons from tearing themselves apart. The war tests her loyalty to her people and her belief that peace can overcome hatred. As the battle reaches its climax, devastating sacrifices are made, alliances shift, and Themyscira is forever changed.
