Retired underground cartoonist and current comics herstorian Trina Robbins has been writing graphic novels, comics, and books for almost half a century. Her subjects have ranged from Wonder Woman and The Powerpuff Girls to her own teenage superheroine, GoGirl!, and from women cartoonists and superheroines to women who kill. She's won an Inkpot Award and was inducted in the Will Eisner Hall of Fame at the San Diego Comic-Con. She lives in a moldering, 100+-year-old house in San Francisco with her cats, shoes, and dust bunnies.
Comics herstorian Robbins (The Great Women Superheroes) has
produced a wonderful tribute to Brinkley, reprinting in full three
serials and numerous shorter works with ample biographical
background. With their swoon-worthy hair and wardrobes, the
Brinkley Girls could kick off a whole new cosplay aesthetic.--
"Library Journal"
The handsome hardcover collection The Brinkley Girls brings
together a generous sampling of Brinkley's work, leaning heavy on
her stories of industrious women and the he-men they love...
Brinkley's art is so drop-dead gorgeous that readers may long to
razor out every page to hang on the wall. [Grade] A-.-- "The Onion
