Wonder Woman serial?

I saw the Superman serials from the 40s and also the batman serials from the same time frame.

Other characters also had serials, but I never heard of a Wonder Woman one.

Was this ever a consideration especially since WW was a big deal during the War?

As have I. Others as well.

There is no Wonder Woman serial.

Probably because there were no serials made that starred a woman at that time. It would have been cool to see how they would have made it though.

There were a small handful of serials which had female leads: The Tiger Woman, Jungle Girl and it's sequel The Perils of Nyoka (aka Nyoka and the Tigermen), Panther Girl of the Kongo, and Zorro's Black Whip - which, despite it's title, does not feature Zorro but instead is about a masked heroine called The Black Whip. I've not seen The Tiger Woman, Panther Girl of the Kongo or Jungle Girl, but The Perils of Nyoka and Zorro's Black Whip are both solid, entertaining serials, with Black Whip in particular being very good indeed.
