Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. NEW EDITION!It is likely that the names of Sally the Sleuth, Diana Daw, Polly of the Plains, Vera Ray, Olga Mesmer, Betty Blake, and other similar heroines do not bring any clues to the minds of modern comic book readers. Yet, they are the true pioneers who opened the path toward the comic book revolution of the first half of the Twentieth Century.They appeared on two to four-page comic stories in the '30s and '40s Spicy and Saucy pulps that were often sold under the counter, despised by the conformists, and read by all.Appearing both in short, self-contained stories or longer arcs that covered several issues, each girl showed a true passion for trouble and a talent for shedding their clothes in the most improbable situations.Ironic, breath-taking, and sometimes dramatic, yet never vulgar, these stories, primarily aimed at a male readership, also offer a simple yet accurate interpretation of the world that was changing under the push of female emancipation.Girls in Trouble - Vol.2 includes12 Stories of Polly of the Plains from Spicy Western Stories, 49 Stories of Diana Daw from Spicy-Adventure Stories, plus the rare and most likely single stip of Flossie Flip, the prurient starlet from the police Gazette.All pages have been restored to look as close as possible to the originals at the time of publication. Whenever necessary, lettering has been redone to improve readability.This volume also includes an introduction about the coming to be of the Spicy Pulps and Harry Donenfeld, better known for his involvement with DC Comics; A summary of the copyright status of the magazines in which the comics have been originally published; An updated bibliography of each series in which each character appeared. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability. …
