Humpty Dumpty Goes To Macao

Egg Fu first debuted in Wonder Woman #157 (October 1965).

He was a Chinese Communist agent, inexplicably shaped like an egg the size of a house, with a Charlie Chan-like speech pattern, who used his mustaches as whips against his enemies.

-Wikipedia

If he wasn't so I Wear My Straight Jacket On The Inside insane of a character, he'd be slightly racist.





He recently made a comeback of sorts in D.C.'s exhaustion of a epic "52" under the name Chang Tzu, explaining that "Egg Fu" was one of his "Nine thousand and nine unmentionable names", and immediately killing a guard who laughs at the mention of it.

As you can see, time, Wonder Woman, and p.c. racial stereotype homogenization have not been kind to him...

4th Of July Pt. 4

As the color combination of red, white and blue is anathema to me, this about wraps it for my 4th Of July posts; a few sketches by a few artists (most for various Wonder Woman Day auctions), and a wonderful widescreen retrospective of her various costumes that unfortunately wasn't credited.









Artists: Joe Benitez, Jaime Hernandez, Darwyn Cooke, Jim Mahfood, ?
