Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* congratulations to David Reddick and his new partner in marriage Dana.

* Dustin Harbin and Mike Dawson on Batman: Year One. Here's a panel discussion primarily focused on Gerhard, the backdrop and scenework artist for Cerebus during the bulk of its long run. Chris Sims on Convergence: Atom. Sims is correct: that comic is really funny and weird and stands out against a backdrop of mostly disjointed, tired-seeming efforts (granted, most of those books constituted a rough, rough assignment).

* Ben Marra draws something in the flavor of Cthulu.

* reader Matthew Badham wrote in with a link to Steve Bell's web site, wondering out loud why he hadn't heard of it before now.

* Paul Morton talks to Daniel Clowes. It's really great news that we're likely going to have two years in a row where Clowes is engaged with the comics-interested press; he's a very interesting thinker about comics. Robin McConnell and Brandon Graham talk to Anne Ishii and Graham Kolbeins.

* I think CA's Andrew Wheeler makes a good point here. I'm with Wheeler in that I love shows that breathe a bit, but I think when I ask pros and attendees there are a lot more fans of wall to wall scheduling that I'd like to admit.

* speaking of CA, this was an enjoyable feature heading into TCAF weekend.

* here's a fun photo of Lorenzo Mattotti at TCAF. Amy Roth's TCAF photos tend to be really, really good.

* finally, Juliet Kahn finds herself a bit bored with the good female rolemodel characters she's been reading recently.
