Ms. Magazine #v1 #1

About: This first issue of Ms. Magazine, published July 1, 1972, features Wonder Woman on its cover. Ms., founded by activists Gloria Steinem and Dorothy Pittman Hughes, is a periodical providing “feminist news and information.” Introduced as a preview within a December 1971 issue of New York Magazine, Ms. ran as a monthly publication until 1987, when it converted to a quarterly. Steinem chose Wonder Woman for the cover, in part, as a reaction to DC Comics’ decision to have the long-running character lose her superpowers.The magazine includes an essay concerning Wonder Woman’s history and role in inspiring feminism. Due in part to these efforts, Wonder Woman’s powers were soon restored within the comics.
