Then there's the bondage and submissive elements which are played down in this volume, but are still present. Some stories seem designed to teach how to deal with hard situations like bullies, boring history and parental cruelty. Clearly aimed at children of that time period. It is interesting trying to reverse engineer what Marston's intentions were. His renditions of women and animals are really starting to look good in this time period.Īccording to Jill Lepore's well researched Secret History of Wonder Woman, Marston's polio presented in August of 1944 and his death from cancer occurred in May 1947, so this is the last bit of Marston's work he had direct control over and surely borne of turbulent times in his life.

Artistically Peter's artwork is much improved over previous issues. William Moulton Marston wrote many of the stories in this volume and Harry G Peter did almost all the artwork. Most of the work here is being published for the first time since its original publication, although Sensation Comics #49-57 and Wonder Woman #16-18 were reprinted in Wonder Woman Archives Vol. 3 are Wonder Woman stories published in Sensation Comics #49-69, Wonder Woman #16-25 and Comics Cavalcade #14-22. 3 covers the January 1946 through October 1947 time period.
