"Mad" the COMIC BOOK #10 from 1954 comes to a close today, not by winding down, but by banging us over the head with another comic book parody which soon became a classic, Bill Elder and Harvey Kurtman's take on Wonder Woman "Woman Wonder!"!
This one's chock full of Elder's "chicken fat", chock full of Kurtzman's take on the medium itself (which keep in mind, was only 16 years old at the time) and even has Batman as the villain and a cameo by SuperDuperMan!!
It's a good'n...dig in...enjoy!

I note he didn't try to imitate HG Peters' art style, which is just as well.
It was...weird...to begin with.
Using his own style allows the wonderfully-looney storytelling to read effectively.
Agreed...pure Elder cartoony-ness! Great stuff!
