Bravo, Smithsonian. They're putting out a series of comic books based on real-life female scientists.
From a post on Comics Alliance...
Because teachers are the real heroes, the Smithsonian Channel has launched a new series spotlighting some of the world's greatest scientists and their fascinating work. The hook? They're all women -- superheroines of discovery and exploration. In support of Women in Science, Smithsonian Channel commissioned five short webcomics starring the esteemed subjects of the series, which include such tantalizing titles as "Decoding Immortality," "Batwomen of Panama," and "Ghost Cat." Check out more details below.
The heroic roster of Women in Science includes Nobel Prize-winner Elisabeth Blackburn, whose mission to "Decode Immortality" leads to the discovery a mysterious enzyme that can keep cells young - but with potentially deadly consequences.
