12:14 pm [mosellegreen] [Link]	Golden Age Wonder Woman Just one image today, from Wonder Woman #7, 1943. (Larger version here.) Man, when I was that age I'd have given anything to be able to throw pianos at pesky grownups. Woulda served them all right. Also, "Amazon piano"? Since there's just one WW image today, under the cut are a few Superman-related lolcats. Wasn't sure how to tag superlolcats. Suggestions?

06:09 pm [mosellegreen] [Link]	Wonder Woman for President Boy, do I have some crack for y'all today. Published in Wonder Woman #7, winter of 1943. This is a long story, so I counted the pages and made sure I didn't have too many. Had to delete a few of the scans that were in this post on the old s_d. ( Read more... ) Album for dial-uppers.

01:37 pm [mosellegreen] [Link]	Wonder Woman: Bondage and Female Empowerment The WW posts I've made so far are from a 1977 collection of Golden Age Wonder Woman comics with an introduction by Gloria Steinem. Steinem carefully picked the least whacked out stories, avoiding the more bondage-intensive ones and the ones with racist stereotypes. I received this volume as a Christmas present when I was 8 or 9. Before that, Wonder Woman was my heroine simply because she was the only girl on Superfriends. (Okay, there were two others, but Wendy and the female Wonder Twin just weren't that inspirational, okay?) This collection is how the Amazing Amazon earned her permanent place close to my heart. I read it about five thousand times; it's very well worn. I loved that she was a heroic female, I loved that it was full of pictures of pretty girls, and yes, I loved the bondage. Even then. This collection doesn't give the issue numbers, but this story was originally published in 1945.

08:27 pm [mosellegreen] [Link]	Golden Age Wonder Woman This one was published in 1946. I gather that the issue had multiple stories about Lana, whose mental turmoil about her relationship with her no-good boyfriend Carl Ambishun AKA Silas Sneek had the side effect of taking her and the Holliday girls to other time periods, where they would temporarily forget that they hadn't been born in ancient Greece or wherever and behave as if they belonged there. Since Lana said "Oh, my formula", I'm assuming she made some kind of chemical thingie that she drank that gave her this ability. I really, really want to see how this concept was introduced. But all my collection includes is the last of the stories about Lana.

05:45 pm [mosellegreen] [Link]	Golden Age Wonder Woman There is no bondage in this story. Seriously, none. It was published in 1949. Marston was dead. He didn't write this story. That's why there's no bondage.

12:16 pm [mosellegreen] [Link]	Golden Age Wonder Woman Thank you, everyone who said they wanted to see more WW! So I will work my way backwards through my own LJ, posting one a day (when possible) until I've reposted it all. And I'll repost the few non-WW posts I made too, though not till after I'm done with Wondy. The first few posts will be from this 70's collection, as was yesterday's. This issue was published in 1945. It was one of my favorites from this old collection, mainly because there was a lot of bondage.

11:00 pm [mosellegreen] [Link]	Golden Age Wonder Woman I only got one comment expressing interest, but I'll try reposting a couple of my old WW posts here and see what kind of response I get. If people are interested, I'll repost one a day until they're all here. I'll be posting them backwards, since I'm harvesting them from my own LJ. Oh, also: can someone please repost that manga drawing of a guy with kittens strapped to his chest? I know I saved it to my hard drive, but I can't find it. Classics like that should be kept in circulation. This issue of Wonder Woman was published in 1946. I find that I don't have as many snarky remarks to make about most of the issues from this collection. They carefully chose the least whacked out stories. They also chose the ones with the least bondage. Not that there still wasn't plenty, but when I later heard people making jokes about all the bondage, I thought they were being silly. Then the Archive Editions started being published, and I realized they were right all along.

02:07 pm [batcookies] [Link]	Wonder Woman Villains - Doctor Poison Before the Great Disaster, I had a few posts covering some of the lesser known Wonder Woman villains. May as well try again. Doctor Poison was Wonder Woman's arguably Wonder Woman's first costumed/recurring villain (some argue that Ares or Hercules fit that bill).
