Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* check out Chester Brown drawing the Archie characters.

image* Toussaint Egan directs Rick Remender into a remembrance of Fear Agent.

* Gary Tyrrell on Ghosts. Todd Klein on Wonder Woman #3. Gabrielle Bell on a comic by Gabrielle Bell. She also runs the comic.

* I like Jack Kirby's Inhumans concept a lot, and there were probably ways to drag them out on stage a little more in the comics, but I can't be alone in thinking this whole thing the last half-decade where they're taking over the some of the thematic territory of the power-onset traumatized X-Men -- because of the movies or not -- is just sort of an uninteresting, forced narrative development. What's wrong with being superhuman weapons stored on planet Earth during a far, far away intergalactic war? That used to be enough for me to give up the quarters when i was a kid, let me tell you.

* I missed this little Dorkin Family one-pager in front of a comics show. It's very charming. I also missed this Richard Sala post that made me laugh.

* here are a couple of fun drawings by Darryl Cunningham.

* Chris Schweizer's design work is a lot of fun. I have no fears of a robot uprising, but I can enjoy Schweizer's work.

* finally, Ben Towle digs into a Rob Liefeld comic.
