This series of comics is the Wonder Woman from the TV series. It is set in the 70s, and looks like Lynda Carter. It is a group of stand alone stories. There is a story about ivory that connects in with current issues, but otherwise it is just basic stories. There is a story that has some 70 g...

The first 121 pages follow a clear concept, namely to explore the life of the Core-Beat poets Kerouac, Ginsberg and Burroughs. Those stories are either pretty much focused on their homoerotic sexlife or on the very basics of them moving around a lot while switching from one odd job to the next or ru...

I learned so much from this history of women in comics! Once again, I'm reminded that women have been doing amazing things forever, without credit most of the time.

A high interest text with glossary, this graphic novel would be great for introducing second-language learners to WWII history. While it lacks the emotional punch and maturity of Maus, the genre's classic, some teachers may be more comfortable using this story which lacks the gore, nudity, and adult...

It is times like these when I sit down to write a review and ask "Why can't we have more of these kinds of books in this genre?" Seriously. "A Match Made in Heaven," installation #8 of the "My Boyfriend is a Monster" series, is a graphic novel that I personally enjoyed from beginning to end, and I...

I loved learning about Lily Renee, and the British Internments Camps (about which I was completely ignorant), and how with the men off to war women were hired to draw all the comics. The only problem is that the story is focused on Lily escaping the Nazis and fleeing to the US after a time in the UK...
