Bundled, Tossed, Untied, Stacked: Publishing News

* don't know that I'd seen this cover for the forthcoming Buhle/Van Sciver collaboration on a Eugene Debs biography.

* read the latest issue of Scales And Scoundrels, an all-ages, rpg-informed fantasy title from Image that while not for me I thought very genial and easy on the eyes to find out the title is ending at #12. I kind of thought it might be in trouble when they did a trade of #1-5 when the story in the serial comic naturally extended and then ended into #6. I know that the Image numbers can be tough for titles that don't reach a certain threshold, but I thought this one had a chance. I hope that the artist Galaad in particular finds an as-suitable outlet. The last issue is out mid-September.

* finally: Amazon.com is a terrible place to find exact news as to when a book might be coming out, but it's a pretty good one for finding books that will exist at some point or another, like this one from New York Review Comics that I bet exists in something other than Kindle form. I'm not sure I knew they were climbing the Mark Alan Stamaty mountain in the first half of next year.
