The Heroines Showcase Art Portfolio

A three-issue art portfolio series from SJ Graphics (1979–1985), The Heroines Showcase is a gallery of pin-up and character portraits spotlighting fantasy and adventure heroines, most frequently illustrated by artists Lela Dowling and Lisa Free. This short-run project stands as a distinctive artifact of late-70s/early-80s fan and small-press comics, offering a focused celebration of female characters through lush, stylized artwork rather than narrative storytelling.
