'Female Force' Comic Honors Activists Including Gloria Steinem

As part of their mission to bring readers inspiring role models and stories about extraordinary individuals who have overcome challenges to make a difference in the world, Bluewater Productions "Female Force" -- a comic book celebrating female empowerment while exploring the life stories of powerful women -- will release the 96-page graphic novel "Female Force - Activists: Gloria Steinem, Melinda Gates, Arianna Huffington, & Angelina Jolie."

"We wanted to showcase the strong women in today's society that have inspired generations and shaped the culture of today," publisher Darren Davis said. "Kids and adults alike can look up to these women as great role models. One of the coolest things about the comic books is that we found schools using them for reluctant readers."

In this volume, Bluewater collects the stories of women whose activism has led to positive change in our world. Gloria Steinem was at the forefront of the battle for equal rights, while Melinda Gates' philanthropic gifts change our world for the better. Arianna Huffington's Huffington Post proves women can be as powerful as men in the news business, while actress Angelina Jolie's humanitarian outreach changes lives one at a time.

In the past, issues of "Female Force" has featured actors, politicians, authors, and musicians such as Hillary Clinton, Ellen DeGeneres, Sonia Sotomayor, Michelle Obama, Gabrielle Giffords, Condoleezza Rice, J.K. Rowling and Cher. These biographical comics, written by some of the most talented writers and artists in the field of comic book publishing and beyond, deliver an informed and illustrated look into the lives of these figures.

The "Female Force" line of comics has been embraced by the media and featured on several television news outlets including "The Today Show" and on CNN. The series has also been featured in many publications such as The LA Times, MTV.com, Time Magazine and People Magazine.
