Wonder Woman doesn't come along until December of 1941 in All Star 8. The price guide does not state USA is the first patriotic woman superhero, I think because she is in spirit and not actually form. She disappeared after 7 issues so about the time that Wonder Woman came along, but let's not forget who the real first patriotic woman superheroine is... Miss Victory! August 1941, a real person who battled in WW2 and disappeared shortly after. The price guide has a question mark as to 1st Superheroine and that's because they have yet to label or figure out USA. Nonetheless, an important issue. I've been looking for this issue, I have all her other appearances. Black Cat ties with Miss Vic but labeled a woman of mystery as opposed to patriotic minded, yet the comic she appears in is clearly patriotic. (Pocket Comics #1)
