The queen puts Diana in charge of defending the mines, but Diana only wants to take a few Amazons, so everyone doesn’t freak out. This is QUITE the logical leap, but okay. Ummm, can Amazons learn to disappear at a certain age? Is this a Wonder Power we never saw? They DO have invisible planes …ĭiana, using Wonder Intelligence, has figured out it’s the feminum the Nazi’s are after. She tells Queen Morticia that Dru has disappeared and the queen’s reaction is bizarre … “She’s so young, how did she manage that?” She’s so Morticia here! Diana invisible planes it home in her Wonder Woman outfit, but by the time she lands to see her mom, is in Amazon Chiffon®. I will ALWAYS screencap an invisible plane shot!Īt the War Department, they intercept a Nazi signal calling for a land attack on an island near the Bermuda Triangle … only there is no island there! Suddenly, Diana decides that with an imminent Nazi attack, this is the perfect time to take leave. This is all he ever says he has to do, and by now, it’s blatant enough to make a drinking game out of it. What does Evil Saxon do? Radio Berlin, of course. In short order, Wonder Girl spills the beans on the special metal of her bracelets ( feminum, which of course is what you’d name it) that it only comes from one place and oh, yes, let’s discuss astronomy so Peter can deduce where your island hidden by light refraction, would be. Evil Saxon, who has masculine charm to the 28 th power, rightfully scoffs that Peter can charm Wonder Woman. Wonder Girl reminds Peter of someone … a girl who had a crush on him. What the eff kind of scientist is he? I realize it’s an abandoned warehouse, but get a metallurgical spectrometer in there, man! Because that’s what we think of as science these days. The last Bullets & Bracelets® you’ll see in this episode.Įvil Saxon takes her bracelets off and Peter Knight “tests” them. Now Evil Saxon is convinced she is the Wonder Woman and they choloform her again. Au contraire, says the comic books! Still in a deserted warehouse.Īt the warehouse where Dru is held, Peter changes clothes and he is skinny! He is “thrown” into the cell as a “prisoner.” Evil John Saxon shoots a gun at Peter and Wonder Girl (who we never actually call “Wonder Girl”) deflects with some Bullets & Bracelets®.
So, we get the obligatory sly jokes about there’s no phone where Queen Carolyn lives. Steve is less than helpful and wonders if Diana shouldn’t just phone home to her mother. “Why that’s the latitude and longitude of … Paradise Island!”ĭiana is worried about her missing sister, but not so much she isn’t back at work at the War Department. So, there’s some learning for you in your weekly recap of 70s superheroics.
Younger readers may not be aware of The Feminine Mystique, the 1963 book by Betty Friedan, which is recognized as helping kick off the second wave of feminism in America.
After the build-up of last week’s introduction to Drusilla/Wonder Girl, this week, we dive right into the action as we wrap up “The Feminum Mystique, Part II!”
