Princess Diana becomes the Masked Maiden to become Wonder Woman and ambassador to Man's World, not in Sensation Comics #1, as I often think history should have gone, but in a preview (and origin) in the back of All-Star Comics #8, which came out the month before. Diana would become the JSA's secretary (there's a sort of indignity there), but before she has a chance to join, they lent her a few (very wordy) pages. There's a lot of weird stuff in Marston's work, but Amazons shooting at each other with revolvers to prove they can stop bullets with their bracelets starts us off on a nutty note. Not picture, the kangaroo-related competition.
