Robyn featured in the 2004 Toby Donald and Dick Whyte documentary, Boys Suck: Throw Rocks at Them first screened at the New Zealand Comics Weekend at 91 Aro St Gallery, later to be released on DVD. The documentary followed Robyn and fellow comic artist G.C.R. to the Eric Awards in 2004. This film is considered part of the Aro Valley film movement. She was also interviewed by Shirley Horrocks in her documentary The Comics Show, screened at the New Zealand Film Festival in 2007.
Kenealy won the award for the best cartoon in the 2009 A.S.P.A. awards (Aotearoa Student Press Association) with The Darkroom weekly serial (a backstory to "Roddy's Film Companion") which has been appearing in Salient Magazine for the last year. Dylan Horrocks, one of the judges, wrote that Kenealy's comics have "all kinds of smarts going on just below the surface." Tim Bollinger, in a recent review, wrote that The Darkroom has "smart conversational language and pen-and-ink-wash visual narrative."
