About the Art

This November 1948 issue of Jumbo Comics features Sheena, Queen of the Jungle, in a dramatic battle against a gorilla, vividly depicted on its bold, action-packed cover. The dynamic composition emphasizes Sheena’s flowing golden hair and leopard-print attire, key elements of her iconic visual identity.

Fiction House artistically captures the post-war fascination with exotic locales and strong female protagonists, reflecting the era's cultural shift toward adventurous escapism. The cover's vibrant red backdrop and stylized lettering evoke the Golden Age aesthetic, while Sheena’s commanding pose highlights her significance as one of the earliest female comic book heroes to headline her own series. 

Matt Baker

Matt Baker (1921–1959) was a pioneering African American Golden Age comic artist, acclaimed for his “good girl” style that redefined heroines as confident and sensuous. A Cooper Union graduate, his iconic work on Phantom Lady, It Rhymes with Lust (a proto-graphic novel), and Canteen Kate blended dynamic artistry with progressive characterizations.
