DC Finest: Wonder Woman: Enter the Cheetah [Paperback]

Wonder Woman faces one of her earliest and most dangerous enemies—the Cheetah. These classic stories show Diana battling jealousy, deception, and fierce foes with courage and compassion. It’s the beginning of a legendary rivalry that helped shape her heroic journey.

DC Finest: Wonder Woman – Enter the Cheetah collects Wonder Woman #5–9, Sensation Comics #19–34, Comic Cavalcade #3–7, and All-Star Comics #20, originally published between 1943 and 1944. These stories feature the debut and early battles between Wonder Woman and Priscilla Rich—the original Cheetah—alongside appearances by Steve Trevor, Etta Candy, and the Holliday Girls. With themes of justice, identity, and transformation, this collection showcases the mythic and psychological depth that has defined Wonder Woman since her earliest days.A noted psychologist and the man who perfected the testing system for the lie detector, William Moulton Marston was hired in 1941 as an advisor to All-American Comics publisher Max C. Gaines after he wrote an article praising the educational potential of comic books in the magazine The Family Circle. But when Marston suggested a new character to his employer, he was met with skepticism.
         “America’s woman of tomorrow should be made the hero of a new type of comic strip,” Marston wrote. “By this I mean a character with all the allure of an attractive woman, but with the strength also of a powerful man.”
         In other words, Wonder Woman.
