“Only comics creator with a Joni Mitchell song written about them” is god-tier bragging rights. RIP, Trina Robbins, an icon.

Trina wears her wampum beads She fills her drawing book with line Sewing lace on widows' weeds And filigree on leaf and vine Vine and leaf are filigree And her coat's a secondhand one Trimmed with antique luxury She is a lady of the canyon

I knew her for almost 20 years before I learned that fact, from reading her autobiography. You know how much else a person has to accomplish in life that they don't say "yes, I'm THAT Trina" right off the bat?

Nice!
