Description
A group of four vintage DC Comics, featuring ‘The New Wonder Woman’ in issues #186, #187, #188, and #197. These comics date from the late 1960s to early 1970s, indicated by the 12c and 15c cover prices and period advertisements. Each comic prominently displays the DC logo and the primary title “THE INCREDIBLE FEATURING THE NEW WONDER WOMAN,” with issue #197 specifically highlighting “DIANA PRINCE AS THE NEW WONDER WOMAN.” Notable cover text includes “LOOK OUT!” (issue #186), “THE LAST BATTLE!” (issue #188), “SHOCKED AT WHAT YOU DID? WAIT UNTIL YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENS TO YOURS!” and “CYBER’S REVENGE!” (issue #197), and a skiing scene (issue #187). The back covers feature contemporary advertisements for Aurora Glow-Power Strikes/Movie Monster kits, a Hot Wheels Super-Charger Race Set, and American Seeds Co. Printed on paper, the covers are characteristic of the ‘Diana Prince’ era, often referred to as ‘bondage covers’ in collector’s circles.
