Women of Marvel is an exhibition that celebrates the strength, courage and determination of Marvel superheroines.

Female comic artists have long been underrepresented in the comics industry. However, Marvel was one of the first comic book publishers to include female cartoonists and writers on their creative team. Women such as Marie Severin, Linda Fite, Ann Nocenti, Louise Simonson and Gail Simone helped create some of the most popular characters in the Marvel Universe.
