Running until the end of March, London’s Orbital Comics is hosting an exhibition of pages from publisher DK’s latest title Fearless and Fantastic! — a who’s-who of female Marvel superhero character profiles.
This collection profiles dozens of aspirational female comic-book characters, all of whom use their strength, intelligence and courage to help others. Fierce fan-favourites such as Captain Marvel, Gamora and Storm feature alongside little-known faces from all corners of the Marvel comic-book universe.
A tribute to Marvel’s most powerful women featuring 50 incredible female Super Heroes and a treasured gift for comics fans, old and new, discover modern, diverse heroes they can relate to and look up to, including America Chavez and Kamala Khan.
Illustrated with stunning comic-book artwork, each character’s short biography is carefully curated to focus on the character’s abilities and achievements.
Described as a book for girls and women of all ages DK hopes Fearless and Fantastic! will create new fans of comics, as well as inspiring comic-book creators of the future.
Copies of Fearless and Fantastic! are available in store, as well as a wealth of Marvel’s greatest female-led graphic novels.
