Roots

The original wave of manga influenced comics came during the mid to late 1980s, prior to wide familiarity with manga in North America. Particularly in publications such as Barry Blair's Samurai, Doug Rice's Dynamo Joe, and Alan Oldham's Gambit and Associates. Ben Dunn's long-running Ninja High School remains a seminal title of that period, as do the comics based on the animated series Robotech.

Famous quotes containing the word roots:

    What are the roots that clutch, what branches grow
    Out of this stony rubbish?
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    The roots of the grass strain,
    Tighten, the earth is rigid, waits—he is waiting—

    And suddenly, and all at once, the rain!
    Archibald MacLeish (1892–1982)

    A poet must be a psychologist, but a secret one: he should know and feel the roots of phenomena but present only the phenomena themselves—in full bloom or as they fade away.
    Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818–1883)
