A BIRTHDAY SALUTE…

Wonder Woman creator William Moulton Marston was born 133 years ago, on May 9, 1893. The Amazing Amazon has endured long after his death in 1947, but for this year’s birthday salute, we’re spotlighting some of WW’s earliest DC adventures with a look at 13 PAGES from her October 1941 debut in All-Star Comics #8, her first solo features in Sensation Comics #1-5, and the July 1942 premiere of Wonder Woman #1. 

They’re an interesting lot, and all were written by Marston under his pen name Charles Moulton, and illustrated by H.G. Peter.

Great Hera!
