Through a celebration and critique of the comics character of
Wonder Woman, this collection takes up the historical trends that
have changed the world of comics, American popular culture, and
feminism. In honor of the 75th anniversary of the comic book super
heroine Wonder Woman in 2016, Kent State University and the
Cleveland Public Library partnered to celebrate the intersections
of public literacy, comics, and feminism in a jointly sponsored
symposium. Centering on the figure of Wonder Woman, the special
issue of the Journal of Graphic Novels and Comics that this volume
is based on collected the presentations and interviews from the
event. This book will fortuitously appear in honor of Wonder
Woman's 80th anniversary and pays respect to "herstory" while
recognizing her perpetual relevance to our present day, and beyond.
Like its progenitor, it reflects the historical trends that have
changed the world of comics, American popular culture, and feminism
so relevant to our current moment. It also highlights an interview
with Mariko Tamaki, the current writer of Wonder Woman comics, as
well as new editorial reflections in a Foreword and an Afterword.
