From the trailblazing Wonder Woman of the 1940s to edgy, girl-power-driven comics series like Birds of Prey, DC Comics Covergirls takes a look at the female characters of DC Comics throughout the company's history, and features many of DC Comics' iconic comic book covers. Written by renowned comic book writer Louise Simonson, the book examines the evolution of the comic book women of DC Comics: the 1942 introduction of the most famous DC heroine, Wonder Woman, and her various incarnations up to the present; the creation of comic book spin-offs based on characters such as Lois Lane; and the recent wealth of fierce, female character-driven comics such as Supergirl, Birds of Prey, Batgirl, and Catwoman, featuring women who have no trouble being both sexy and strong-willed. Famous featured DC Comics artists include Jim Lee, Alex Ross, Adam Hughes, J. Scott Campbell, Michael Turner, Tim Sale, and Jill Thompson. DC Comics Covergirls is a smart and in-depth look at the female comic book characters we've grown up with all these years, and is sure to appeal to new comic book fans and diehard collectors alike.… (mer)

I own most of the comics that have their covers featured in this book, and it is nice to have them collected in one place and sorted by characters and themes, especially since it saves me hours of lifting and shifting comic long boxes to track down my copies. There is a ton of great art (and more than a smidgen of cheesecake) here. Adam Hughes carries the day, which makes me interested in tracking down a copy or Kindle download of [b:Cover Run: The DC Comics Art of Adam Hughes|7964050|Cover Run The DC Comics Art of Adam Hughes|Adam Hughes|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1320565692s/7964050.jpg|11890907].

The author takes it upon herself to fill out the book with a history of the characters pictured, which results in a lot of laughable summaries of decades of plot developments as characters emerge, fall in love, die, resurrect, marry, get retconned as single, die, resurrect, pass the mantle, take the mantle back, die, resurrect, die, resurrect, etc. She at least has the decency to wink at the reader as she gets to the most outrageous and unfortunate points in the twisted continuity of the DC Universe.

This is a brief overview of the history of women in DC comics. There are chapters devoted to Wonder Woman, Lois Lane, Supergirl and other cousins of Superman, Gotham Girls, women from DC’s adult comics, and other heroines. The important thing here is the covers; all in color and some full page. ( )
