Amazona

In the vast cold reaches of the far north lives Amazona, the Mighty Woman, a figure of unsurpassing strength and unmatched beauty. She and her people are the last survivors of a super race that perished during the last ice age. When she meets a handsome explorer named Blake Manners, who accidentally stumbled upon their citadel after surviving an ill-fated expedition, she becomes infatuated with him and follows him back to America. In America, Amazona and Blake go to a party, but it is crashed by gangsters. Amazona manages to stop the criminals and avoid being caught up in a fiery explosion. While she made only one appearance, Blake was supposedly able to investigate a murder case in the next issue with Amazona’s help. Amazona’s superpowers include immunity to the effects of cold, super strength, superhuman endurance, and cat-like agility. Note: While one might assume Amazona was inspired by Wonder Woman, Amazona debuted over a year earlier.
