Helena Kosmatos and Diana Prince... two heroines with ties to Grecian legends... brought their old-world sensibilities to the new world with equal parts might and right.
Each lass possessed tremendous super-strength, speed, and durability in addition to wearing metallic items that aid them in deflecting projectiles.
Due to her ties to her fellow Young All-Stars, Helena aka Fury would evidently have been her world's analog to Wonder Woman. And, although not a princess like Diana, Helena was renowned as a paragon for powerful princesses symbolically speaking.
How, though, can we say with certainty that this hero originated on Earth-Eight? Well, writer Roy Thomas mentioned how the Young All-Stars absorbed the energy left over by heroes that ceased to exist during the 1940's, including the golden age Wonder Woman. It was revealed during the Infinite Crisis by Alex Luthor of Earth-Three that the potential Earth-Eight was where all remaining characters originated that had not previously appeared on former Earths known as Earth-One, Two, Four, S or X. Their adventures on that merged post-Crisis Earth would have mirrored those on Earth-Eight.
