Joye Murchison Kelly (née Hummel) dies at the age of 97
The first woman to write Wonder Woman the comics died the day after his birthday, April 5th. A brilliant student of character creator William Moulton Marston, Kelly was a ghostwriter for 70 issues in the 40s under the alias "Charles Moulton". He started working Wonder Woman # 12 and she was only the second woman to write for DC. After Marston's death, the publisher hired another (male) writer and Kelly retired from the comics in 1947 to marry her first husband.

The pioneer was awarded the Bill Finger Award for Excellence in Comic Book Writing at Comic-Con 2018. In an interview with The San Diego Union-Tribune on the occasion, Kelly reflected, "[Marston] wasn't just writing an adventure book. He wanted those who read Wonder Woman to be inspired, that young women reading the stories would be inspired to study and enter the world and have confidence that they can make things happen. I think he felt that a woman's touch would make the world better. "

The animated short, its creators note, was designed to "express an idea: that our union can be a force for positivity within our workplace and the state of Georgia as a whole," adding: " We hope that people are inspired by this film and we ask our management once again to recognize our union: we want to help the management organize our studio and make sure every voice is heard. "
