Created in 1941 by the psychologist William Marston, Wonder Woman
would go on to have one of the longest continuous run of published
comic book adventures in the history of the industry. Seventy years
after her debut Wonder Woman remains a popular culture icon.
Throughout the intervening years many comic book creators have had
a hand in guiding her story, resulting in different interpretations
of the Amazon Princess. But the changes in tone, theme, or subject
matter in Wonder Woman's fictional adventures are not only the
result of new creators. Wars, the feminist movement, politics, and
evolving social opinions and concerns can be seen influencing the
stories found in Wonder Woman's comic books. In this collection,
each chapter examines a specific period or storyline from Wonder
Woman comic books and analyses those stories in regards to
contemporary issues in American society. Tracing the evolution of
Wonder Woman through seven decades of comic books not only
increases our understanding of an important American icon, it
illuminates the relationship between American society and the
entertainment it produces and consumes.
