[QUOTE=Pinsir;4523048]Giganta doesn't really have much of a publishing history despite being a somewhat famous villain. She first appeared in WW Vol 1 #9 which is one of the best Golden Age stories and then she appears in issue #24 as a member of Villainy Inc. After that she has no Silver or Bronze age appearances, at least in her own book.
She didn't reappear again until John Byrne's run and not even as a major villain either, more like a cameo.[/QUOTE]
Giganta also appeared in an issue of Super Friends. It was issue 30:

She did reappear in the Silver Age actually - Wonder Woman #163 ("Giganta - The Gorilla Girl") where she falls in love with Steve Trevor IIRC.

Weird, I don't recall that story. Its essentially a retelling of the original Golden Age version with Doctor Psycho.

I'd like to narrow this down a little. For me it's important to have all eras represented, and also that everything be in continuity, to have actually "happened." I wouldn't want to confuse a new reader, who may be new to comics, with an Elseworlds story. Also, my sense of order demands that every decade be represented but with only 7 total and almost 80 years of history that's not possible.
So how about something like this? These are spaced out fairly evenly.
Something from:
The early 1940s
The mid 1950s
The late 1960s
The early 1980s
The early 1990s
The mid 2000s
The late 2010s
-
The early 1940s: Wonder Woman and the Cheetah
The mid 1950s: Nothing
The late 1960s: Wonder Woman and Supergirl vs the Planetary Invader
The early 1980s: Swan Song
The early 1990s: Chalk Drawings
The mid 2000s: Eyes of the Gorgon
The late 2010s: The Witching Hour.

Pretty much the above. Those are pretty much the best of the modern stuff. I would probaby swap out number 7 for a PreCrisis story, JUDGMENT IN INFINITY.
