It’s that Woman with the Captain, St. John: Showing now, Ida Long Goodman Memorial Library. On loan from employee Mark Bryant are two icons - heroes to some of us back in the day: The mythical and mystical Captain America and Wonder Woman! Diana is known in the day world as an Amazon princess and emissary of peace and her warrior side is Wonder Woman from Paradise Island.
Captain America was born from an experimental super-soldier serum during WWII that turned frail Steve Rogers into the Sentinel of Liberty and the exemplar of human physical perfection.
These are true icons of American Comic Heroes so go have some fun and check these out.
