Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* Top Shelf hit #1 at NYT with their March Vol. 1, which is doubly nice for them because that's the kind of work that will feel the positive impact of being able to be called a NYT #1 book.

image* one of the great joys of having a wide on-line net always out and looking for links is that you sometimes see older ones you either don't remember or missed entirely, like this one to scans a 1973 creators guide published by Charlton. Fun.

* Matt Dodge on Daredevil #30. Carter Scholz on New School. Jeffrey O. Gustafson on The End Of The Fucking World. Brian Bendis on Scene Of The Crime. Dustin Cabeal on Alternative Comics #4 and Failure. Gigi Devlin on Pippi Fixes Everything.

* not comics: I don't have a huge appetite for items related to comics, but I like these mittens.

* this Tumblr post is intended to show off the various women with whom Captain Marvel comes in contact, but I was struck by how sort-of terrifying that hybrid animal in the first image was. Buh. Buh, buh, buh.

* Steve Morris talks to Laura Anderson. Muna Shikaki talks to Janet Hamlin. Jeremy Nisen talks to Isaac Cates.

* Adam Hughes draws Gwen Stacy.

* Michel Fiffe on finding a Joe Madrureira-drawn 1990s X-Men comic in a format used for a Hong Kong edition, and liking it that way.

* finally, Zak Sally can go back to being a cartoonist and image-maker now after a few months of hectic curating and festival organizing, and that make me happy.
