THIS.
Wonder Woman was NOT the first female heroine (that honor belongs to Sheena Queen of the Jungle - not to be confused with Marvel's Shanna - first published in 1.937, one year before Superman), not even the second... Red Tornado (Ma Hunkel, not the android), Phantom Lady, Fantomah, Miss Fury, and The Woman in Red, preceed her.
But she's the most enduring one, the better known, and the only one that NEVER stopped being published, even in the worst eras for comic publishing. Alongside Batman, Superman, Plastic Man and Captain Marvel (Shazam), she's the only female superhero that kept being published uninterrupted through the Senate anti-american hearings in the 1.950s.
That was a crisis that almost killed the superhero genre, but after the foundation of the Comics Code Authority, and with the creation of Barry Allen in 1.956, the Silver Age started and superheroes came back to prominence.
But Wonder Woman NEVER stopped being published, and to this day, she's still the only superheroine that had her own TV series, and is also a symbol of female power for women all over the world. She's a cultural icon, more than any other female character ever created.
Make no mistake... any collection will ALWAYS be incomplete if Wonder Woman is not represented in it.
... Let alone touch one... I think some of them may ink they are made of polystone... LOL
