Hey Wonderfriends!!!

Wonderverse has received news from Andy Mangels that "Today, October 25th, is the "real world" 70th birthday of Wonder Woman!"

That's right! America's Super-heroine Number One first appeared on newstands on this day back in 1941.




Andy Mangels explained: "The Amazing Amazon first appeared in a 9-page back-up story in All-Star Comics #8, written by her creator William Moulton Marston, and drawn by H.G. Peter.



The book had a cover-date of Dec-Jan 1941-1942, but because comics were/are sold months in advance of their cover-date, it first went on sale on newsstands on October 25, 1941.



The first issue of Sensation Comics (cover-dated January 1942) went on sale on November 7, 1941."

Happy Birthday Wonder Woman!
