The Wonder Woman #1 in context

Why collectors care

The first Wonder Woman solo title, cover-dated Summer 1942, launched within a year of the character's debut. It reprints and expands her origin and established her as a headline character rather than an anthology feature.

How to identify it

Wonder Woman #1, Summer 1942. This is NOT her first appearance -- that is All-Star Comics #8 (1941), also in this catalog -- nor her first cover feature, which is Sensation Comics #1.

Common mistakes

Three separate books have first-something claims for Wonder Woman. Confirm which one a listing holds before paying a first-appearance premium.

Grade considerations

A scarce wartime book. Restoration is common and unrestored copies carry a large premium; certification is essential.
