Women And The Comics

WOMEN AND THE COMICS is the first attempt to document the careers of the hundreds of women who have created and worked in the field of comic strips, comic books and cartooning. The Women whose work is showcased in this book have been long overlooked or ignored by most other histories of comics. WOMEN AND THE COMICS is a landmark book, the result of four years of research by Catherine Yronwode (then Editor in-chief of Eclipse Comics) and Trina Robbins (co-creator of Vampierlla). It is a reference source designed to serve future generations interested in discovering the contributions women have made to America's most popular art form.
