Some incarnation of it, yes, but it took a good while after people had decided that second-wave was finished (and thus that third-wave had begun) before they could really figure out what it was that third-wave feminism was supposed to be. There were many different post-second-wave feminisms around, but when I was writing my thesis none of them had managed to capture an audience much beyond those who happened to read their particular book. I do recall that at the time there was some question as to whether a real third-wave movement would emerge from these splintered post-second-wave ideas, or whether feminism was dead like postmodernism.
I read Bust for a while a while back and an issue or two of Bitch, but I'll have to see if I can get my hands on more of them and on Faludi.
