Comics 401: Wonder Woman Podcast

No Wonder Woman character has changed quite as drastically over the years as Etta Candy.

At one point, Etta Candy, Wonder Woman’s best friend, was arguably the best character in the entire comic. Even better than Diana.

Later, as the decades passed, Etta became a shadow of what she once was, an unconfident woman who couldn’t measure up to Wonder Woman.

In appreciation of the oft-forgotten character, Episode 12 of the Comics 401 podcast is an “Ode To Etta Candy!”

Steve Trevor tends to die a lot. Same with Superman.

Otherwise known as the “MOD years” or “de-powered era,” this period in Wonder Woman history is very strange for so many reasons, and most people try to forget it ever happened.

Not us, because episode 10 of the Comics 401 podcast is going to you all about the adventures of “new” Wonder Woman. Listen and find out how the most famous of all female superheroes became a glorified secret spy.
