  • Noted comics historian Ron Goulart has produced the final word on good girls in the comic books with Good Girl Art. Chronicling the history of the good girl in comics from the beginning, in the comic book sweatshops of the late 1930s, through the war years, the 1950s, to the present. Good Girl Art also covers the many outstanding European comic artists to embrace the use of the good girl in their comics. Good Girl Art covers the publishers, comic books and artists. With insights that only Goulart can provide, readers are given an in-depth and behind-the-scenes history of good girl art in the comics. Good Girl Art also uses rarely seen original artwork by such legendary comic artists as Matt Baker, Lee Elias, Frank Cho, Adam Hughes, Joe Chiodo and Dave Stevens.
