Wonder Woman Newspaper Comics Come to IDW Publishing

I love Wonder Woman. I used to race home after school in the early 80s just to watch the hit television series starring Lynda Carter. Carter played the beautiful Amazon princess Diana Prince who had a secret – she was Wonder Woman. With her boomerang head band, bulletproof bracelets, and her lasso of truth, Wonder Woman became my hero. I can’t wait for this book of comic strips to come out.

Wonder Woman Newspaper Comics
Come to IDW
The Entire 1940’s Newspaper Comics Available For The First Time Ever!

San Diego, CA (June 24, 2014) – In partnership with DC Entertainment, IDW Publishing and Library of American Comics is pleased to announce the August release of Wonder Woman: The Complete Newspaper Comics, which collects the entire original Wonder Woman newspaper strip that ran from May 1, 1943 until December 1, 1944 for the first time ever!

Just a few years after Wonder Woman burst into comic books, the world’s most famous female superhero starred in her own daily newspaper strip written and drawn by the same creative team that produced the comic book: William Moulton Marston (writer) and Harry G. Peters (artist).

This beautiful 196-page hardcover book starts the story on Paradise Island where Amazonian women rule supreme and no men are allowed. Their way of life is about to change when Steve Trevor, a wounded American soldier, washes up on their shores. Soon, Princess Diana of the Amazons—rechristened Wonder Woman—is off to America, where the saga continues!
