DC Comics Covergirls

Edición de la obra DC Comics Covergirls

From the trailblazing Wonder Woman of the 1940s to edgy, girl-power-driven comics series like *Birds of Prey*, *DC Comics Covergirls* takes a look at the female characters of DC Comics throughout the company's history, and features many of DC Comics' iconic comic book covers. Written by comic book writer Louise Simonson, the book examines the evolution of the comic book women of DC Comics: the 1942 introduction of the most famous DC heroine, Wonder Woman, and her various incarnations up to the present; the creation of comic book spin-offs based on characters such as Lois Lane; and the recent wealth of fierce, female character-driven comics such as *Supergirl*, *Birds of Prey*, *Batgirl*, and *Catwoman*, featuring women who have no trouble being both sexy and strong-willed. Famous featured DC Comics artists include Jim Lee, Alex Ross, Adam Hughes, J. Scott Campbell, Michael Turner, Tim Sale, and Jill Thompson.
