American Update: The Wonder Years! A Decade of DC’s Amazing Amazon, from 1965 to 1974
*DC: Diana, the Princess of Paradise Island, has always had a keen following, only enhanced by the character’s Big-Screen Blockbuster in the movies. We have a substantial restock of Silver to Bronze issues of Wonder Woman’s adventures, beginning with 1965’s #156 – in which the creators revisit the Golden Age style, in a very peculiar hybrid indeed – and closing with the 100 Page #214, in which Green Lantern monitors one of a series of trials to determine Wonder Woman’s fitness to rejoin the Justice League. (Bet they wouldn’t have done that with Batman; sexist piglets.) Along the way, our heroine battles Supergirl, loses her super-powers, learns martial arts, becomes Queen of a European nation, battles Catwoman, gains a new black Amazon sister, and faces off against an array of assassins, barbarians, ghosts and psychopaths. A woman’s work really is never done! This new range is predominantly high grade (averaging VF, many nicer) and almost unanimously cents copies, with only a couple bearing a UK price stamp. Pictured: #159 VF £80, #177 VF+ £75, #194 NM £75, #195 VF/NM £55, #199 VF+ £70, #200 VF+ £75 and #211 VF+ £55. Details of all the others on our online listings.
