Everything about The Mental Radio totally explained
The
mental radio is a fictional object that featured prominently in the Golden Age and some later adventures of the fictional
DC Comics superheroine Wonder Woman.
Comic book history
The mental radio device was created by the scientifically advanced Amazon nation on Paradise Island. It first appeared in
Sensation Comics #3.
It was frequently used throughout the Golden Age as a means for Wonder Woman to maintain communications with her mother and fellow Amazons on Paradise Island and for Wonder Woman's allies
Steve Trevor and
Etta Candy to communicate in times of distress.
The mental radio was needed primarily as a receiver. Wonder Woman and her allies were shown to be able to broadcast their distress calls even when they were nowhere near a mental radio, but they'd to sit down in front of a mental radio device in order to receive telepathic transmissions.
Although the character most frequently shown to broadcast distress calls via mental radio was Wonder Woman, typically in the form of an "electronic" word balloon with a tail emanating from her forehead, mental radio broadcasting wasn't originally considered a feature of her tiara but was instead something even Steve Trevor and Etta Candy could do, with electronic thought balloons similarly pointing at their foreheads.
Mental radios featured prominently in a plot by Nazi agent Fausta Grables to steal a device in order to eavesdrop on Wonder Woman and her companions.
The mental radio appeared less frequently after the Golden Age. By the later pre-
Crisis adventures, only Wonder Woman was shown to possess a mental radio outside of Paradise Island, and it was installed in her
invisible jet.
