“I went to art school, but I didn't last because in those days you couldn't take comics as a course. And they weren't even teaching you to draw real things, they were really into abstracts, and I was not into abstracts, so art school and I did not work out.” ArtRealSchoolLastsCoursesTeachingDrawsWork OutReal ThingsArt School Author:Trina Robbins
“I started drawing comics, and at first I was very influenced by the whole pop art movement, you know, Batman was on TV and all that pop art stuff? But then my next influence was in 1966, or maybe it was '65, I don't know. Somebody showed me a copy of the "East Village Other", which was an underground newspaper. And... it had comics in it! And they weren't superhero comics.” KnowsFirstsArtWholeNextStuffInfluenceMovementTvsPopsEastDrawingNewspapersCopiesVillageSuperheroPop ArtEast Village Author:Trina Robbins
