Wonder Women Of America

Wonder Women Of America, a great new book by Amos Toys’ co-founder Russell Waterman and photographer Ruth Wiggins, celebrates how women at Comic Con choose to express themselves, their interests, their freedom and their sexuality by dressing up as fictional characters.

Shot entirely during 2007’s San Diego Comic Con, Wonder Women Of America features normal everyday women from all walks of life who just happen to be proud of their geeky side and are not afraid to flaunt it. From the sexy to the purposely ridiculous, from the most innovative to those timeless classics, from the artsy shy girl to the super vixen, this book has them all.
The most fascinating aspect about Wonder Women Of America is that hardly any of the super-ladies featured are professional models and none were hired to promote a brand or booth. They are average Janes playing masked avengers, ass-kicking mutants and intergalactic princesses… and they come in all ages, shapes and sizes!
