The public, in turn, demanded champions who reflected and defneded their ideals. Beautiful as Aphrodite, wise as Athena, swifter than Mercury, and stronger than Hercules, Wonder Woman embodied all the positive values of the 1950s. To celebrate the decade, this volume features several never-before-reprinted stories that show the mighty Amazon facing off against menacing robots, aliens, and giants; teaming up with Robin Hood and the Justice Society of America; revealing the origins of her golden lasso, tiara, and invisible plane; and trying her hand at different careers! Often dangerous, sometimes humorous, but always uplifting, Wonder Woman's adventures in the 1950s exemplify her fortitude, perseverance, and compassion. Join us in honoring Diana of Themyscira's legacy with this collection of tales curated from All-Star Comics, Sensation Comics, and the original Wonder Woman series, written and illustrated by Robert Kanigher, Harry G. Peter, and other talented creators from this classic era.

These four characters portray very different versions of women: the superheroine, the abuse victim, the fourth wave princess, and the spy, respectively. In this in-depth analysis of female characters in superhero media, the author begins by identifying ten eras of superhero media defined by the way they portray women. Following this, the various archetypes of superheroines are classified into four categories: boundary crossers, good girls, outcasts, and those that reclaim power. From Golden Age comics through today's hottest films, heroines have been surprisingly assertive, diverse, and remarkable in this celebration of all the archetypes.

Book Synopsis The Secret History of Wonder Woman by : Jill Lepore
Download or read book The Secret History of Wonder Woman written by Jill Lepore and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the origin of one of the world’s most iconic superheroes hides a fascinating family story—and a crucial history of feminism in the twentieth-century. “Everything you might want in a page-turner … skeletons in the closet, a believe-it-or-not weirdness in its biographical details, and something else that secretly powers even the most “serious” feminist history—fun.” —Entertainment Weekly The Secret History of Wonder Woman is a tour de force of intellectual and cultural history. Wonder Woman, Jill Lepore argues, is the missing link in the history of the struggle for women’s rights—a chain of events that begins with the women’s suffrage campaigns of the early 1900s and ends with the troubled place of feminism a century later. Lepore, a Harvard historian and New Yorker staff writer, has uncovered an astonishing trove of documents, including the never-before-seen private papers of Wonder Woman’s creator, William Moulton Marston. The Marston family story is a tale of drama, intrigue, and irony. In the 1920s, Marston and his wife brought into their home Olive Byrne, the niece of Margaret Sanger, one of the most influential feminists of the twentieth century. Even while celebrating conventional family life in a regular column that Marston and Byrne wrote for Family Circle, they themselves pursued lives of extraordinary nonconformity. Marston, internationally known as an expert on truth—he invented the lie detector test—lived a life of secrets, only to spill them on the pages of Wonder Woman. Includes a new afterword with fresh revelations based on never before seen letters and photographs from the Marston family’s papers, and 161 illustrations and 16 pages in full color.

Book excerpt: The most famous of all the women who have ever been called a superhero, Wonder Woman exploded into the world of comic books amid the uncertainty and bleak determination of World War II. Fighting for justice and treating even her enemies with firm compassion, Wonder Woman brought not a cape nor a ring nor a personal fortune or hidden clubhouse, but a magical lariat that compelled anyone it bound to tell the truth, and bracelets that could not only deflect bullets but prevent Wonder Woman from ever using her superpowers for unchecked destruction. The very first stories of the Amazon Warrior are collected here in WONDER WOMAN: THE GOLDEN AGE VOLUME 1, featuring the adventures of Wonder Woman as she tackles corruption, oppression and cruelty in ALL STAR COMICS #8, COMIC CAVALCADE #1, SENSATION COMICS #1-14 and WONDER WOMAN #1-3.
