Few women creators worked in comics, and those that did frequently worked anonymously or under pseudonyms and were subject to workplace harassment and discrimination. Similarly, female characters were often poorly presented and framed in a sexualized fashion. Although some elements of this history have been told piecemeal there hasn't yet been a comprehensive look at women in comics during this period. Brunet and Davis examine female creators and characters across a broad range of genres to create a historical narrative of representation and culture that goes beyond previous scholarship"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Women cartoonists $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Comic books, strips, etc. $z United States $x History $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Comic strip characters $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Women superheroes $z United States $v Comic books, strips, etc. $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Comic books, strips, etc. $x Social aspects $z United States. 650 0 $a Women in literature $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Heroines in literature $x History $y 20th century. 700 1 $a Davis, Blair, $d 1975- $e author. 700 1 $a Robbins, Trina, $e writer of foreword. 830 0 $a World comics and graphic nonfiction series. 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117012551.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20220630013100.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9AE5319EF83C11EC97B2B25526ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
