Something similar happened to Batman. By 1964, sales of the Batman comic books had fallen significantly and DC Comics was considering killing him off for good. But once again a superhero was saved. When the Batman TV series aired in 1966, this superhero was soaring to new heights. In 1966 the Batman movie brought further interest, as did the animated series. It took longer for Wonder Woman to become a TV feature. After a few aborted tries, in 1975 "Wonder Woman" debuted on ABC and then was moved for a short time to CBS.
