The Secret Origin of Wonder Woman [Leaf Comic Book Candy] #1

In this landmark 1980 origin tale, Queen Hippolyta shapes a girl from clay, and Aphrodite breathes life into her, naming her Diana. Years later, when Steve Trevor crashes near Paradise Island, Diana and Mala save him—sparking a contest to choose who will return him to the outside world. Though forbidden from entering, Diana secretly competes in disguise, wins, and is finally granted the costume, magic lasso, and invisible plane that make her Wonder Woman. Written by Bob Rozakis and brought to life by José Delbo’s dynamic art, with inks by Vince Colletta and letters by John Costanza, this free 1980 issue features a cover by Dick Giordano, capturing the moment Diana’s destiny takes flight.
