Description:
Has Wonder Woman hit the comic book glass ceiling? Is that the one opposition that even her Amazonian strength can t defeat? Entertaining and informative, The Supergirls explores iconic superheroines and what it means for the culture when they do everything the superhero does, only in thongs and high heels.This much-needed alternative history of American comic book icons from Wonder Woman to Supergirl and beyond delves into where these crime-fighting females fit in popular culture and why, and what their stories say about the role of women in society from their creation to now, and into the future.
