Question

An artwork in this medium by William Overgard inspired a painting of a man using his pinky to lift up a large peephole. Allan Kaprow’s remarks about this medium may have influenced an artist to adopt a style (-5[1])that led Life magazine to call him “the worst artist in the U.S.” A replication of a Tony Abruzzo work in this medium depicts a crying blue-haired person and changes a boyfriend’s (10[1])name to “Brad.” (10[1])A work in this medium portrays (-5[2])a missile blowing up a fighter jet. In paintings like Takka Takka and Drowning Girl, Roy Lichtenstein emulated this medium’s (10[1])use of Ben Day dots. (10[1])For 10 points, (10[1])name this (10[1])mass-produced medium whose varieties include newspaper “strips.” ■END■ (10[3])

ANSWER: comics [or comic books; or comic strips; or cartoons; or graphic novels; accept Ben Day process or Ben Day dots before mention; prompt on drawings or illustrations] (The painting in the first line is Lichtenstein’s I Can See the Whole Room...and There's Nobody in It!.)
