Iconic feminist cartoonist and comics historian Trina Robbins passed away yesterday. She wrote everything from Wonder Woman and The Powerpuff Girls to "From Girls to Grrrlz: A History of Female Comics from Teens to Zines" and "A Century of Women Cartoonists"—literally writing the history of women`s comics and mentoring the future. Her amazing comic about the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire was featured on the 1980 cover of Lilith.
May her memory be a blessing.

"As I clean my deep freezer I am overwhelmed by appreciation for my family, for our food, for all we have right now at this moment. As I scrub the popsicle drippings off the freezer walls and use a sponge to pick random fish stick crumbs off the bottom, I am grateful for the abundance of my life."
