Random Comics News Story Round-Up

image* Matt Seneca on Dementia 21.

* I found this story about two brothers on the autistic spectrum rewarding in that there are some insights sprinkled throughout: for instance the reading spaces provide a reduction in outside stimulus as well as a bit of privacy, and they do an amount of business with other on the spectrum because of their ability to meet such specific needs.

* Marshall Ramsey made the editorial cartoon about Barbara Bush being reunited with the daughter that preceded her in death as a toddler, and now he's expanded on it for a popular cartoon about the late President Bush. I'm not a big fan of cartoons like this pair, but they sure resonate with swathes of people.

* Evan Dorkin reassesses his career with a severely critical eye.

* finally: Lisa Rathke profiles a vigorous Ed Koren, one of those larger-than-life older cartoonist of which the field has a sublime and not insignificant number.
