wonder woman stories

If you want the best of wonder woman this is it - starting at about issue 98 the art had taken a new direction from the old crude 40's art style which means WW was behind the times as it was already the later 50's - anyway the cute wonder family stories are the highlight for me - wonder girl - wonder tot - the Queen mother - I just like these stories and remember them well from childhood - I'am a sucker for superbaby stories too. - Steve

Excellent and historic Sci-Fi

I just wanted to drop by and leave my viewpoint. As far as illustrations are concerned, I have seen modern illustrations of the female sex in absolutely pornographic fashion ?(and this is good comic illustration?. Thus, if you are seeking a titillating portayal of womankind, I success that you find it else like in other You will not see woman portrayed that way in this compilation. It would have been nice, I agree, if DC would have printed some volumes of the comic book from its early stages (i.e Nazi's and so forth). In stead, the compilation begins roughly at the same point in WW's history that the TV show did. The science fiction tie-ins in these stories are amazing. The bright outlook on life is a welcome chage from some of the more nihilistic comics that are available, too. I founded it to be a "feel good" book and I read it over when I need encouraging. I recommend it to anyone interested in the growth of female superheroes.
