Fictional history

In pre- Crisis continuity, Wonder Woman used the Invisible Plane to fly due to being unable to do so on her own. [2] [3] [4] After being altered by gremlins, the Plane develops artificial intelligence and the ability to speak. [5]

In post-Crisis continuity, the Invisible Plane is reimagined as a sentient alien crystal named Dome that can transform into several vehicles, including an invisible plane. In Wonder Woman (vol. 2) #201, Dome sacrifices itself to stop a tsunami and is rendered inanimate.
