12:29 pm [mosellegreen] [Link]	Golden Age Wonder Woman Today's scans are about the same Fun Clinics mentioned in yesterday's. They're from "The Malice of the Green Imps", originally published in Sensation Comics #28 in 1944, reprinted in Wonder Woman Archives Volume 4. (Those volumes are indispensable for the Golden Age Wonder Woman geek.) ( I've been all tied up here in Center City. ) Tags: char: wonder woman/diana of themyscira, creator: william moulton marston, era: golden age, publisher: dc comics, title: sensation (11 comments \| Leave a comment)

12:56 pm [mosellegreen] [Link]	Golden Age Wonder Woman There's a few GA WW images here: Ask Golden Age Wonder Woman; Advice on love, life, and relationships by Dr. Golden Age Wonder Woman, Ph.d. Hint: her solution to every problem involves getting tied up. These are from "The Fun Foundation", originally published in Sensation Comics #27 in 1944, reprinted in Wonder Woman Archives Volume 4.

12:21 pm [mosellegreen] [Link]	Golden Age Wonder Woman When I first made this post, which was pretty early in my GA WW postings, I remarked that several people at the old s_d were so amazed at the amount of bondage and other crack that they asked me if I was sure my scans hadn't been photoshopped. When one has experienced the full crackiness of GA WW, photoshopping more craziness in would seem anticlimactic. The Sherlockian title of the story from which today's scans come is "Adventure of the Kidnapers of Astral Spirits", originally published in Sensation Comics #25 in 1944. Just two panels from this one. I'm not trying to convey the full story or anything, just highlighting the most cracktastic bits: ( Read more... ) Tags: char: wonder woman/diana of themyscira, creator: william moulton marston, era: golden age, publisher: dc comics, title: sensation (7 comments \| Leave a comment)

11:39 am [mosellegreen] [Link]	Golden Age Wonder Woman Today's offering is from "The Blue Spirit Mystery", Sensation Comics #30, 1944. It's a surprisingly complex (though nonetheless cracked out) story about a racket in the form of a cult that swindles people out of their money. Really, a lot of Golden Age comics had plots much more complex than most Silver and Bronze Age ones, and dealt with comparatively mature subjects - not mature in the sense of sex and violence, but how many 7-year-olds would one expect to be interested in cult religion scams? I think they gave kids more credit then. Though of course, the stories were still whacked out.

11:37 am [mosellegreen] [Link]	Golden Age Wonder Woman These are from Sensation Comics #4, 1942. Remember that these can be bought in the Archive Edition reprints; thus far there are five Wonder Woman volumes. And they have them of other Golden Age comics too; I also have the Black Canary volume. This issue introduces Wonder Woman's enemy Baroness Paula von Gunther, whom she later reformed, probably by spanking her.

09:08 am [mosellegreen] [Link]	Golden Age Wonder Woman This is one of my favorite Golden Age WW stories ever, Wonder Woman vs. the International Milk Company. It's one of those unusually cracked out ones. Originally published in Sensation #7 in 1942.

08:58 am [mosellegreen] [Link]	Golden Age Wonder Woman Today's story is from Sensation Comics #8, 1942, about a department store chain called Bullfinch that overworks its employees terribly. Yeah, WW shilling for labor unions. Sad. ( 'Great girdle of Aphrodite!

01:59 pm [mosellegreen] [Link]	Golden Age Wonder Woman These are from Sensation Comics #9, 1942. Some of you may know how Wonder Woman originally got her "Diana Prince" identity. She ran into a nurse who resembled her and was coincidentally named Diana - Diana Prince - who wanted to go to South America where her fiancé was, but didn't have the money. Wonder Woman gave her the money in exchange for her identification papers, which she used to get a job in the hospital where Steve Trevor was being treated. In this issue, the original Diana Prince, now Diana White, returns to America. Her marriage is to all appearances happy, but, well, odd. I'm sure none of you are surprised.

10:07 am [mosellegreen] [Link]	Golden Age Wonder Woman Bondage These are from Sensation Comics #11, 1942. You know, the comic book writers and artists of the 40's didn't know that they were the Golden Age. I'm sure it never occurred to any of them that decades later, adults would be reading their creations, analyzing them and laughing at the plot holes. They were just trying to pay the rent. They had to make those kids hand over that dime which might well be a whole week's allowance, so they used the most eye-catching gimmicks they could think of. "People like cowboys/ancient Egypt/leopard-skin-clad jungle queens," they would say. "Let's build a story around that." And they would, however far-fetched the combination might be. And it's lucky for us that they did so, because it gave the more serious comic book writers of today, who know that adults are going to read their stories with a critical eye, all kinds of crazy elements that they have to try to get to make sense. Today's comic book readers want to have our cake and eat it too; we want our heroes to be from other planets or from lost civilizations, we want them to be able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, we want them to run around doing good deeds in patriotically colored spandex... and we want the writer to make all of this make sense. I love superhero comics. Today's installment is basically The Story of O for kids. Really. No, really. It was very hard not to just scan the whole issue.
