I watched this last night. It shows a lot of interesting tidbits on how the comic business developed. Who knew that the sidekicks developed out of a push to target pre-teen boys in the fifties? And I loved the S & M inferences they point out about the Wonder Woman comics. :eek:

You should read some of the serious works of the psychologist (or psychiatrist, I forget which) who created the character. He writes about the benefits of having a relationship with a "dominant woman". Dr. Moulton's personal life was rather interesting. In addition to his wife, his household included a woman who was tall, athletic, olive-skinned, and dark-haired.
