![]() Rose and Thorn came back in Superman #336 (June, 1979, by Len Wein and Curt Swan), and in two issues of Brave and the Bold ( #188 and #189, written by Kanigher, and art by Jim Aparo) with Batman. Kanigher wrote most of the back ups (with Cary Bates writing a few), and other artists on the series included Gray Morrow, Dick Giordano, Rich Buckler and Don Heck by the back-ups end in Superman's Girlfriend Lois Lane #130. This caused Rose to develop the split personality of the Thorn (hiding her short blond hair with a brown wig).and working to take the mobsters down, occasionally making a wild and wacky Lois Lane cover (and co-starring in the main feature). Rose Forrest was a police detective's daughter, traumatized by the death of her dad at the hands of the 100 (an evil crime syndicate based in Metropolis). ![]() ![]() Wonder Woman faces off against alien invaders, foreign terrorists and the occasional super-villain while Steve keeps trying to get her to quit the crimefighting and tie the knot. ![]() We have new and used copies available, in 1 editions - starting at 182.96. Reading the Kanigher era of Wonder Woman, I must say he gives us a stronger WW than I'd thought from occasional reprints. The second Rose and Thorn started in Superman's Girlfriend Lois Lane #105 (October, 1970) in a story written by Kanigher, with art by Ross Andru (who had worked with Kanigher on Wonder Woman as well).
