Review:

In this issue, Wonder Woman had to match strength and intelligence against the Cheetah who had a plan to get rid of Wonder Woman for good.

The story begins with Yeoman Diana Prince and Major Steve Trevor attending the White House Gala Dinner. A short moment later, President Roosevelt was being attacked by a guest at the party. Diana quickly transformed into Wonder Woman but in doing so started a chain of events that would soon have her facing the Cheetah. Because when socialite Priscilla Rich sees Wonder Woman her split personality takes over and the Cheetah emerges.

Some time later, Cheetah set a trap for Wonder Woman so she could figure out her secret identity. She would then use that information to destroy Wonder Woman.

I love how sassy Wonder Woman was in this because as Wonder Woman, she gave some great one-liners to the criminals. And as Diana Prince, she not so subtly told off Steve Trevor for treating her as if she was a third rate consolation prize when they attended the White House Gala Dinner. She was his date to the event however she could tell that he really would have preferred to have Wonder Woman as his date instead. He's such a Wonder Woman fanboy in this.

I love reading these old comics they're so much fun to read. In this issue, Cheetah proved why she was a worthy villain of Wonder Woman and she also had some great snarky comments as well.
