From the birth of the 1940s comic book heroine, Wonder Woman, to the blockbusters of today,WONDER WOMEN! looks at how popular representations of powerful women often reflect societys anxieties about strong and healthy women.

WONDER WOMEN! goes behind the scenes with actors Lynda Carter (Wonder Woman) and Lindsay Wagner (the Bionic Woman), comic writers and artists, and real-life superheroines such as feminist icon Gloria Steinem, riot grrrl Kathleen Hanna, and others, who offer an enlightening and entertaining counterpoint to the male-dominated superhero genre."
