American Update: Sensation Comics #78 (1948)
*DC: Just like Superman & Batman, Wonder Woman didn’t start out in her own title. Her first appearance came in All-Star Comics #8, with her story continuing into the anthology series Sensation Comics from #1-106. Sightings of Sensation Comics in the UK are not common, so we’re very pleased to be able to present issue #78 (June 1948) this update, with a Wonder Woman cover and lead, backed up by Wildcat, Little Boy Blue and the Blue Boys and other features. Wonder Woman comes up against Furiosa, the ‘Mistress of Masquerade’. This is a reasonable copy, with a strong, unmarked cover image, virtually no creasing, minor edge wear (notably a tiny corner off top right cover above the DC logo) and nice, supple creamy pages. 52 pages inc covers. The staples are firm at centrefold and appear to be well attached at cover spine, but nevertheless the lower staple has been protected by a small piece of magic tape. Other small unobtrusive pieces have been used to protect the spine at centre and bottom. A robust enough copy of a true vintage item.
