Researching Wendy Pini and Comic Con Culture at the Columbia Archives

I visited the Columbia graphic novels archive collections last week to conduct research on Wendy Pini and her development of Elfquest.  I also reviewed old Con programs to get a sense of Con culture from the 1960s to the 1970s.

More to say soon.  In the meantime, enjoy this vintage video of Wendy Pini staging her famous Red Sonja performance from the San Diego Comic Con in 1978.  One of her actual Red Sonja costumes is preserved for posterity at Columbia.
