Dear Mr. Spurgeon,

I work with the Museum of Comics and Cartoon Art in NY, and I hope you'll be able to publicize an upcoming event at the museum, part of our "MoCCA Mondays" programming series. Details are below, and I have attached our logo graphics for use on The Comics Reporter.

Thank you very much for helping to get the word out! Please let me know if you have any questions.

Sincerely,
Eugene Myers

It traces their change from a series of unflattering and unattractive stereotypes to the wide variety of strong and powerful 3-dimensional human beings created today.
