Wonder Woman
Few characters carry the weight of decades quite like Wonder Woman, who made her catalog debut in Batman Classics #9 in 1971 — a Bronze Age introduction through the lens of publisher Classics/Williams that planted her firmly in the company of heavy-hitters like Batman, Superman, Bruce Wayne, and Clark Kent. Spanning an impressive 53 years in this catalog (1971–2024) and turning up across titles like Batman Classics, Gen 13, and Groene Lantaarn Classics, she's a figure whose presence crosses eras and genres with ease. With only 5 appearances logged here, each one carries real collector significance — these are the kinds of issues you hunt down precisely because they're scarce. A legendary name in a compact but fascinating corner of comics history.
