Random Comics News Story Round-Up
* Abhay Khosla
wrote an actual blog post worth reading re: Frank Miller slamming the Occupy movement.
This snippet from an Ann Nocenti interview is worth reading, too. Tom Dougherty wrote a funny letter
to this site on the matter.
* for some strange reason I always meant to post about J. Chris Campbell and his participation in the Halloweirdos art roll-out last month, but never did. I suck. If like me you're happy to look at drawings of monsters any time of the year,
start here. Speaking of Halloween,
that's a heck of a costume.
* Bill Baker talks to
Lee Bermejo and
Jason Minor. Paul Gravett profiles
David B. Jason Sacks talks to
Kevin Huizenga.
* not comics: Mike Lynch reminds of
a charity auction for Alexandra Trotsenko.
*
Ben Morse remembers Les Daniels.
* Brandon Graham's
catch-all posts are right up there with anyone's.
This post from Keith Knight, currently touring Europe, is pretty good in that scattered way as well. Speaking of Europe, here's the latest from
a touring Craig Thompson. And speaking of cartoonists who are soliciting art commissions from folks like Knight does every year,
here's Ryan Cody's holiday offer.
* Chris Schweizer
reports on the visit of
MAD artists to SCAD last weekend.
* Darryl Ayo
wonders why more comics sites don't run comics.
* I don't remember
this advertisement for Rubber Blanket #3 at all.
* Alan Gardner gives the final report on
his fundraiser at Daily Cartoonist.
* Timothy Callahan is trying to find out
what happened to Andy Helfer.
* the CBLDF
has a post up about an art auction of art created during a party held at NYCC.
* John Porcellino
provides Frank Santoro with a scene report on South Beloit, IL, which is really just a walk around town with that great cartoonist. Who can resist? His town is about the same size as my own, and yet has two comic shops (my closest is 2+ hours away). I'm very jealous.
* I'm in a state of advance-jealousy of the person who wins
this Same Difference giveaway.
* Sean T. Collins on
Queen Of The Black Black. Rob Clough on
Hark! A Vagrant. Todd Klein on
Retroactive JLA,
Green Lantern Emerald Warriors #11-13,
CBLDF Liberty Annual 2011 and
Green Lantern Corps #61-63.
*
aw, no mini-skirt.
*
love for Tom Gauld from his publisher.
* Brian Heater reviews
the experience of reading comics on the Kindle Fire and the Nook. (thx,
Gil Roth)
* finally,
this is a fantastic quote from Jim Woodring.
