DC comics is looking to tap into the teen girl market with a line of graphic novels called Minx. What took them so long?
“The Plain Janes” is about four high school girls named Jane - or, to be precise, two Janes, a Jayne and a Polly Jane - who form a secret art gang named P.L.A.I.N., or People Loving Art in Neighborhoods.
I am a bit past the target audience for this considering I’ll be getting out of college pretty soon here, but I’d be interested in seeing how this turns out. If only because I’d like to know what it is you do in an “art gang”.
I probably would have considered my AP Art class in highschool sort of like an art gang. We traveled in large packs sometimes. And sometimes we loitered in the hall…and drew drinking fountains… with Prismacolor markers and colored pencils! Yeah, we were bad ass.
