Sensation Comics #74

Wonder Woman takes the reins — literally — in this 1948 issue of Sensation Comics, her lasso flying wide as she rides a sleek red watercraft in pursuit of a band of armed, helmeted figures on matching vessels cutting through the waves. Harry Peter's cover art perfectly sets the stage for "The Undersea Cowboys!," a story that promises aquatic adventure with a Wild West twist. For a dime, this was exactly the kind of imaginative, action-packed fun that kept readers coming back to Wonder Woman month after month.
