Story Notes
Writer credit from "The Secret History of Wonder Woman" (Jill Lapore, 2014); we previously suggested Robert Kanigher. Story refers to Comic Cavalcade (DC, 1942 series) #17, "The Valkyries' Prey" (October-November 1946), Wonder Woman's first encounter with Gundra and the Valkyries. Odin is so demoralized by his defeat, he commits suicide at story's end, and the villain in the following story does the same.

Story Notes
Writer credit from "The Secret History of Wonder Woman" (Jill Lapore, 2014); we previously suggested Robert Kanigher. Story re-done in Wonder Woman (DC, 1942 series) #209 as "Attack of the Sky Demons." This story shows how Kangas arrived on Paradise Island; prior to this, Diana and her Amazon girls rode giant rabbits. 7-year old Diana wears bracelets in this story, although she was previously shown receiving them upon turning 15 in Wonder Woman (DC, 1942 series) #1. In the tradition of many Wonder Woman villains, the Skyriders pose as men but are revealed as women at story's end: Amazons who have lost their homeworld and they ask to remain on Paradise Island.
