I doubt that Steinem actually saw many of these comics. She did an intro to a collection of 40s material and put WW in the cover of the first issue of MS; but I think she was more motivated by wanting the character to be Wonder Woman, superhero, rather than Diana Prince, adventurer, rather than anything related to the actual content of the issues. The main feminist focus in comics was with the women of the Undergrounds, more than anything else. I agree. I seem to recall speculation that she never read these powerless Wonder Woman comics, and only hated them on specuilation, since she wanted a female superhero who was truly powerful.
