Indexer Notes

On page 8, the editor notes Wonder Woman recently battled the Cheetah in Wonder Woman (DC, 1942 series) #230; that issue, however, detailed an adventure set during World War II, featuring the Earth-Two Wonder Woman and Cheetah.

Wonder Woman believes the Cheetah has drowned at the end of the story; the Cheetah assumes Wonder Woman is indifferent to her fate, and retaliates in Justice League of America (DC, 1960 series) #195.

Etta and Diana's noisy neighbors is a subplot that is later explored in a storyline starting in Wonder Woman (DC, 1942 series) #279.
