Trade Paperback. Zustand: Fine. First Edition First Printing. 293 Pages Indexed. Brand New condition. For more than 75 years, Catwoman has forged her own path in a clear-cut world of stalwart heroes, diabolical villains and damsels in distress. Sometimes a thief, sometimes a vigilante, sometimes neither and sometimes both, the m…ercurial Catwoman gleefully defies classification. Her relentless independence across comic books, television and film appearances set her apart from the rest of the superhero world. When female characters were limited to little more than romantic roles, Catwoman used her feminine wiles to manipulate Batman and escape justice at every turn. When male villains dominated Gotham on the small screen, Catwoman entered the mix and outshone them all. When female-led comics were few and far between, Catwoman headlined her own series for over 20 years. True to her nature, Catwoman stole the show everywhere she appeared, regardless of the medium. But her unique path had its downsides as well. Her existence on the periphery of the superhero world made her expendable, and she was prone to lengthy absences. Her villainous origins also made her susceptible to sexualized and degrading depictions from her primarily male creators in ways that most conventional heroines didn't face. Exploring the many incarnations of this cultural icon offers a new perspective on the superhero genre and showcases the fierce resiliency that has made Catwoman a fan favorite for decades. Contents: Perjured Origins, A Conspicuous Pause, Same Time Same Cat Channel, A Streak of Heartbreaks, Gone Astray, Hear Me Roar, Leaping into Animation, Glaring Fixations, A Novel Perspective, Cinematic Catastrophe, Sidekick Tales, and Perusing the New 52.

"One of the most important, revealing, and unabashedly honest books about rock ever written." - Boston Phoenix. "Young in heat, and ready to rock: Miss Pamela, the most beautiful and famous of the groupies.Funny, bittersweet, and tender-hearted." - Stephen Davis, author. "Irresistible.[Pamela Des Barres] recounts her sexual adventures with an unabashed gusto more common to male memoirs, a rare treat in itself." - Kurt Loder, Rolling Stone. "A legendary tale of rock 'n' roll dreams, sex, drugs, and love - all told through the writings of rock's premier groupie and sexual muse.Pamela Des Barres is one of the most important rock historians of our time." - Dave Navarro. "Since rock's beginnings, there have been groupies. These chosen few women who bed, but not often wed, the musicians of their dreams are almost as much a part of music history as the musicians themselves. Palela Des Barres, the world's foremost supergroupie, here offers an all-access backstage pass to the world of rock stars and the women who love them. Having had her own affairs with legends such as Keith Moon and Jimmy Page - as documented in her bestselling memoir I'm With the Band - Pamela now turns the spotlight onto other women who have found their way into the hearts and bedrooms of some of the world's greatest musicians. In Let's Spend the Night Together, she tells, in their own words, the stories of these amazing women who went way beyond the one-night stand. Here you'll get to know 24 outrageous groupies, including: Tura Satana, Miss Japan Beaufiful, who taught Elvis how to dance and gave him lessons in lovemaking; Cassandra Peterson, aka Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, who tangled with Tom Jones in Sin City; Soulful Miss Mercy, who discovered that not only does the rest of the world listen to Al Green while making love - so does Al Green; Cynthia Plaster Caster, who redefined art and made history when Jimi Hendrix plunged his member into her plaster mold; The mysterious Miss B, who reveals Kurt Cobain's penchant for lip gloss and pantyhose, and over a dozen more." - from the inner front jacket flap.
