Notes
- Priscilla Rich/the Cheetah was created by William Moulton Marston and Harry G. Peter, first appearing in Wonder Woman #6. However, the Earth-One version of Priscilla Rich/the Cheetah first appeared in Wonder Woman #160 by Robert Kanigher and Ross Andru.
- This version of the Cheetah, including all history and corresponding appearances, was erased from existence following the collapse of the original Multiverse in the 1985–86 Crisis on Infinite Earths event and later restored following the rebirth of the infinite Multiverse during the Dark Crisis of 2022-2023. Even though other versions of the character may have appeared, this information does not apply to those versions.
