Only the souls of the dead, shackled as prisoners, may enter Mars' domain. Aphrodite gives Wonder Woman an elixir of living death so her astral form may be captured by Mars' slave collectors.

Wonder Woman fights a Saturnian slave in the arena; she later meets the Saturnians in Wonder Woman (DC, 1942 series) #10. Wonder Woman's healing purple ray can be taken in tablet form.
