Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references and index. Summary:  In a universe full of superheroes, Lois Lane has fought for truth and justice for over 75 years on page and screen without a cape or tights. From her creation by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster in 1938, Lois Lane has been a paragon of journalistic integrity and the paramour of the world's strongest superhero. But her history is one of constant tension. From her earliest days, Lois yearned to make the front page of the Daily Planet, but was held back by her damsel-in-distress role. When she finally became an ace reporter, her tumultuous romance with Superman dominated her storylines for decades and relegated her journalism to the background. Though her history is often troubling, Lois's journey showcases her ability to always escape the gendered limitations of each era and of the superhero genre as a whole.
