Lois Lane: A Celebration of 75 Years
"Lois has had a tumultuous path to where she is today, and her  volume takes some care to represent, but not overemphasize, the many years of super-pining she regularly engaged in during the 1950s and 60s. What we mostly get is the highlights of a tough-as-nails journalist who could stand toe-to-toe with the Man of Steel and not back down or fall listlessly into his arms." -- Matthew Santori-Griffith "Nearly two dozen Lois Lane stories are reprinted here, and it's a fascinating retrospective of the character, as well as of comic books themselves. The silly stories of the 1950s and '60s are hard to take seriously in any way now, but they have some nostalgic pleasures. The more interesting stories come later, in the '90s and '00s, especially a classic issue of Wonder Woman in which Lois interviews the Amazing Amazon and freely discusses the jealousy she feels. It's in instances like these that we start to see what Superman has seen in Lois Lane all along."-- John Hogan"What if a god was reared with a solid moral background supplied by good-hearted (and liberal) Midwestern parents? Well then ... if this super-being is Kal-El of Krypton and the woman he loves isLois Lane-- a smart, ambitious, and just plain nosey gal by nature -- he'd have to really keep on the super-tips of his super-toes. Sure the old secret identity roundelay got boring after a few short decades ... but whenever the god's creators stepped outside this ol'  reliable  conceit, comic readers discovered that Lois Lane is a real character with real story potential." -- Andy Mansell
