Words of Wisdom from Wonder Woman

 

Wonder Woman's perennial foe, the Cheetah, debuted in Wonder Woman #6, dated Fall of 1943.  She was the evil identity of Priscilla Rich, who was jealous of the attention Wonder Woman and other women got from various people, usually men.  She was devious and deadly, and also worked with the fascists of the time, the ratzis.  The whole issue was dedicated to the Cheetah and her escapades.

Back then, Wonder Woman was a bi-monthly publication.  All the stories were about Wonder Woman and friends.  They were split into four parts, though so far none have been cliffhangers.  I have not finished the final chapter of this Cheetah saga.  I just liked this final couple of panels.  Steve was mostly useless, and I cannot figure out what Diana sees in that man.

Also, DIana is really strong- she regularly stops planes barehanded, and in this issue TIPS A DREADNAUGHT OVER while in the water.  She really is a wonder.
