and somehow it’s sad but indicative that Sonny Trinidad’s passing is uncommented on here.

Can I just say that in the late 70′s and early 80′s his fluid style was unsurpassed (pace Gene Colan) in Marvel B/W issues, and his few other appearances (Son of Satan, Man from Atlantis) reinforced his mastery of style and movement.

RIP brother

At my local (New Brunswick, Canada) library, all of the comics from about Bone and up (including a coy of the All ages labeled Mary Jane) are in one section with the lower stuff (Owly, Electric Girl, etc) in another. The main section has Bone all the way up to Spent. Mary Jane and Spent have one book separating them on the shelf because of their library #. That is a bit messed up.

I am a little curious about this library story. Things work a little different up in Vancouver (Canada). Bone, and other items like it, are always in the kids section. The graphic novels are always in their own section, sometimes with Manga, depending on how big the selection is. Adult content graphic novels are always clearly marked.

I can only assume it doesn’t work like that in the States?
