fairybadattitude 's review for:
2.5 stars.
The second half of this book is better than the first, but I think that has more to do with the fact that there is simply more to write about Lois Lane in the latter half of the 20th century and beyond. During the early age of comics, there just wasn't much to say about Lois other than she was a woman in love with Superman.
Inexplicably, there is a chapter on George Reeves' death, which has nothing to do with the character of Lois Lane, other than the fact that the woman he was living with at the time had the auspicious initials, L.L.
For the most part, this was basically a listing of Lois's appearance in comics, movies, radio, and television from her inception to 2015. I would have liked more in depth explorations of how the male dominated industry affected Lois's depiction, and interviews with male writers and artists.
