Here's a question for you. How many Super women comic crime fighters can you name? "Ok, lets see, there's Wonder Woman, errr... then Super Girl, and then there's Buffy the Vampire Slayer, umm, She-Hulk? And...OH WAIT, BATGIRL! And...and, gee there's got to be a lot more than that?" Well there was at one time, during the Golden Age of Adventure Comics. Every newsstand featured an army of gang- busting, tough talking ladies, or Dames as the parlance of the times allowed, protecting innocent citizens from criminals, alien brain eaters, or rogue Gorillas, depending on where the heroine's storyline was set. Some had super powers, others had just plain moxie to successfully wrestle Rascaldom to justice. Face it, if you're a super villain, a racketeer, a nefarious enemy agent or a Zombie horde from planet Zeraap, there's no way you would want to mess with any one of these ladies in this baker's dozen of crime battling beauties. So go ahead and have fun adding some color to these very colorful Dames. Don't Mess With These Dames! Is our first Special Edition Coloring Book from RomanceComic Coloring Books. Remember, Why color Mandalas when you can color Drama!(TM)
Author Biography
About Bernard O'Connor: I grew up in the late fifties and early sixties. Being a child of the space-age I was surrounded by comics. This was due in part to my older sister, Barbara, who was an avid comic reader. But she and her friends read those "Girly romance comics." I, on the other hand, was obsessed with super heroes, monsters, horror and sci-fi comics. But when Barbara wasn't around, I'd seek-a-peek at her "Girly books." After all there were plenty of beautifully drawn pictures of girls in bathing suits, Tennis outfits and short-shorts for a young boy to ogle, er, I meant appreciate the impressive, realistic artwork. When I grew older I became a graphic designer and comics, or as they are called today, graphic novels took on a whole new meaning. Actually one must now appreciate the craftsman or womanship that went into to creating these monthly romance masterpieces. That's why I created the Romance Comic Coloring Book series, so these long forgotten comics can be introduced to a whole new audience. I live in rural Pennsylvania with my wife Cathy who is also a graphic designer and accomplished Glass Mosaic Artist. We share our house with a crazed Bichon, a handful of Parakeets and our yard with an occasional garbage ransacking bear.
