Sensation Comics #4 would already be a top collectors' item for the striking cover by Wonder Woman artist H.G. Peter. There's also a lot of comics history being made in William Marston's "School for Spies." The wild story marks the first appearance of Nazi spy Baroness Paula von Gunther, whose various incarnations have kept her appearing alongside Wonder Woman for over 75 years. The story also further establishes Etta Candy as a reliable sidekick for the awesome Amazon, as well as the Holliday Girls as Etta's fighting sorority sisters.
In addition to the obvious draw for collectors and investors, there are several other great Golden Age moments here. Those include turns by Wildcat, the Black Pirate, Mister Terrific, the Gay Ghost, and Little Boy Blue. (The Wildcat story features the first appearance of defective detective Stretch Skinner, who'd remain his sidekick until the book finally closed its run with Sensation #90.)
