Produktbeschreibung

You need some Wonder Woman in your life!

Fighting for our rights! Through the years Wonder Woman has shown us to be proud of who we truly are. To stand joyfully for principles that form our very hearts and who we want to be. To take a moment before using violence to solve a problem, and instead come up with a healing, win-win solution.

Now let lifelong WW fan Carol Strickland show you how she came to do that: how the character was concocted, how she was presented as a full-blown feminist in a comics world that was very much not so. Discover:

• That spectacular Wonder costume and how it's changed

• Is there really a need for perma-boyfriend Steve Trevor?

• WW's younger sister, Donna Troy

• Her most overused (yawn) villain

• Does eighty-year-old Wondie still hold a place in the 21st century?

Smash the patriarchy! Wonder Woman will save the world!

Join her in her cause and buy now!

Autorenporträt

When you think of strong women and strange worlds, think Carol A. Strickland.

Although born in a small town in Illinois noted for its Nineteenth Century demonic possession cases, Carol claims that all those voices inside her head are a result of having stories to tell and books to write. Even so, her strange devotion to and study of Wonder Woman would seem to indicate an abby-normal brain.

A one-time comics letterhack and outspoken member of various comics message boards, Carol has found herself the basis for two comic book villains (at times her opinions have not been taken well by the books' creators) (both villains were soundly thrashed) (and both, for some perverse reason, were male) and had one superhero wear her costume design. (Light Lass!)

Carol has also become an award-winning painter. Along with her writing, she exercises this skill in her secondary hours (both of them) as she waits for the lottery to free her 9-to-5 time to more fulfilling pursuits.
