Godwatch is a group of supervillains appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics. The group consists of several of Wonder Woman's major enemies.
Founded by Veronica Cale, the purpose of Godwatch was to discover the location of Themyscira. The gods Deimos and Phobos had taken the soul of Cale's daughter, Isadore, and used her as ransom against Cale. They planned to find Themyscira to free their father, Ares, from his imprisonment by the Amazons.
Cale recruited her best friend Adrianna Anderson, who died and became the cybernetic creature known as Doctor Cyber while aiding her friend against Wonder Woman. Cale also utilized her personal bodyguard Colonel Marina Maru and her agents from Team Poison, a group of female mercenaries. Cheetah was at one time a member of Godwatch, as she despised Wonder Woman for allowing her to become a monster. Unbeknownst to her, Cale was actually responsible for turning Minerva into the Cheetah.
Deimos and Phobos grew impatient with Cale, which led to several threats by the twins. Cale, fearful that the gods wouldn't return her daughter to her, sought out the aid of Circe, who transformed the twins into dogs. As the dogs, Deimos and Phobos were forced into loyalty to Cale.
