  • Meet the new Wonder Woman! Betty White hero of her own comic book

    Forget the Snickers Super Bowl commercial.

    Forget hosting “Saturday Night Live.”

    Forget her new sitcom with those other actresses on whatever cable channel its on.

    At age 88, Betty White has hit the comeback mother lode with her own comic book.

    “Female Force: Betty White” (Bluewater Productions) hits comic book stores in November, and writer Patrick McCray says its like nothing he’s ever done before.

    “Working on the Betty book was an honor and a blast,” McCray said. “While covering a new entertainer is always fun, there is something special about profiling an icon. Not only did it allow me to savor nostalgia, it also let me catch up on areas of pop culture that had passed me by.”

    At 32 pages long, fitting the entirety of White’s career — from “Mary Tyler Moore” to “Match Game” to now — was tough, said Bluewater president Darren Davis.

    “Betty White has had such an amazing entertainment career,” Davis said. “It’s one that has now spanned more than 70 years. The biggest challenge that the creative team behind this book faced was figuring out how to include as much of this career as possible in one comic.”
