The Unbroken Line - An exploration of female cartoonists since 1896

Archived since: Jul, 2017

Description:

In 1896, teenager Rose O’Neill published the first known work by a female cartoonist. Since that time women have been ever present in the world of comics: from art nouveau beauties of the 1920s, to the 1940s Miss Fury (the first female superhero), to the underground comics movement, to the unrestrained world of graphic novels. Today, the number of women cartoonists and comics creators is on the rise. However, to understand what the future holds for women in comics, we must conduct a review of the contributions women have made to cartoons and comics in the past. This collection is intended to provide viewers with a representative group of women cartoonists and comic artists over the last 120 years. Each woman, from Rose O'Neill to Alison Bechdel, is meant to represent her respective time period with the hope of showing how cartoons and comics have been influenced by relevant and unique women over the last century.
