Jungle Comics 2 features the first appearance of Fantomah, a significant early female superhero from the Golden Age of comic books. Fantomah sponsored
\nThe February 1940 issue of Jungle Comics is perhaps every bit as sought-after and desirable as the debut issue of the series. While the first issue of this iconic Fiction House title is best remembered for the debut of Kaanga, Jungle Comics #2 features the first appearance of Fantomah, Mystery Woman of the Jungle, who is called by some historians the first female costumed comic book superhero.
But as even they say, it depends on the definition. Other noteworthy contenders would include Ritty, Lady Zina, Vana, and Olga Mesmer among others. And the possibilities open up considerably if one decouples the notion of superheroes from the comic book medium. That aside, in terms female comic book super-powered characters before Wonder Woman, Fantomah is certainly among the most important and best-known of the early contenders.
