And, so (if anyone else also wanted to throw her name into the hat) did everyone else. Some comics people have no other life going on and just live for a reason to hound someone who has a different notion than they do about anything. And, if they feel challenged, or smell blood in the water, they can and might just dog you for days with harassment. Or, the position of any of the professional artists or writers who have worked on Wonder Woman whose opinion would really affect me.īut, the wider fandom and the broader academic base? Some of those cats are wild. I know that is not Trina Robbins’ position. And, atop all that, what if the reason nobody says, Catherine Jones, is that they do not think of her as a woman? (I would not trust my memory against someone else’s facts I would check.) Third, maybe covers do not count, here, and I do not want to get bawled out by people who take this sort of thing and any possibility of being challenged very very seriously. Second, I do not have a fantastic memory. I am a dilettante with inexhaustible parentheticals. The first is that I am not a historian nor an expert (in anything). Why did I not mention her? some of you might wonder. I did not see anyone mention Jeffrey Catherine Jones, and I did not mention her. I saw many names bandied around, including insistences that Ramona Fradon had drawn some (I could find none, though), or that there had not been a real woman drawing a real Wonder Woman comic until someone drew issues of the monthly ongoing under that title, and not a miniseries or one off story. I could not help but remember that Catherine Jones, also known as Jeffrey Catherine Jones, had done covers for Wonder Woman comics earlier than the miniseries that Robbins did with Kurt Busiek and other collaborators in the middle 1980s. Robbins is a noted scholar, historian, booster, artist, writer, and enthusiast in the field of comics. It is most likely that the first woman to draw Wonder Woman solo comics, explicitly Wonder Woman comics and not just comics that have Wonder Woman in them, is Trina Robbins. (True.) But, when it comes to who drew the first Wonder Woman solo stories, the press, at least, likes to claim that every new woman to draw one is the first. (That one depends on how you define co-writer, but by those in the most know, they were not especially, no.) That when Dr William Marston was too sick to continue writing Wonder Woman, Joye Hummel wrote many of the comics. (That one is false.) That Byrne and Elizabeth Marston were co-writers or the writers of some of the Wonder Woman comics.
That the bracelets Diana wears as Wonder Woman are derived from a piece of jewelry or a type of jewelry that Olive Byrne liked to wear.
There are stories, and there are bits of mythology, bits of received wisdom. Recently, the question came up, of who really were the fist women to work on Wonder Woman. Wonder Woman, Glory, Trans Artists & Once Bitten By Travis Hedge Coke on ApPatricia Highsmash
