| | 2. Great Women Cartoonists | 
| By: Trina Robbins
Publisher: Watson-Guptill
November 01, 2001
An updated, and substantially rewritten, edition of the author's previous "A Century of Great Women Cartoonists", this lavishly-designed book covers an area of comics history of which even the majority of diehard fans remain sadly ignorant.
Charged with Robbins' characteristic blend of didacticism and fangirl enthusiasm, the forgotten heroines of the graphic art are lovingly portrayed, with... more

| | 3. Eternally Bad: Goddesses with Attitude |
| By: Trina Robbins
Publisher: Conari Press
July 11, 2001
I recall see this book on a friend's coffee table, and intrigued, ordered my copy. This book takes Goddess, normally seen as nurturing, kind, motherly bastions of light, into more realistic versions of them. They are seen as bitchy, moody, angry, jealous, like us moral women on earth. They are written with flaws and fun delicious evil, and has become on of my favorite books on Goddess literature, folklore... more

| By: Trina Robbins
Publisher: Chronicle Books
April 01, 1999

I remember when I was younger; I loved reading classic literature in comic form. It was often the impetus to get me to actually go out and find the book and read it so I could get the full benefit of all the things that were left out of the graphic version. However, I found that reading the graphic version often primed me to see the story in my head as I read based on the artist's vision. With Graphic... more

Publisher: Eureka Productions
November 15, 2009
Louisa May Alcott was born, wrote "Little Women," and then she died. At least that's what it feels like. She has always been one of those "One Hit Wonder" authors, whose reputation and literary longevity is based not on a body of work but on that one single book that was good enough to become a timeless classic for the ages.
My favorite thing about the Graphic Classics collection is... more
