CR Week In Review
The top comics-related news stories from March 28 to April 3, 2015:
1.
Zunar charged on nine counts of sedition. He's admirably defiant, of course.
2.
Phoebe And Her Unicorn gets
a 100-plus paper launch. New launches are rare, that's one of the best launches in company history, and the strip has had a long life as a webcomic before this recent retitling and re-presentation in a different market.
3. Emerald City
completes its most recent and largely successful (based on anecdotal evidence) year, announces
a four-day show starting next year.
Winners Of The Week
The heavy-hitting academic team behind
What Were Comics, the recipients of the biggest grant ever received to study comics in some form.
Losers Of The Week
The Malaysian politicians on their current politically-motivated vendetta.
Quote Of The Week
