Another Win In FOL Revival Effort

Various posts at a variety of comics blogs -- like this excellent one from Brigid Alverson -- have noted that the Friends Of Lulu and its interim board feel confident enough to confirm that the once-thought-to-be-in-trouble 2010 iteration of their yearly awards ceremony is definitely a go. The ceremony takes place at October's Long Beach Comic Con, and you can find the links for places to vote through that first link there.

That article, incidentally, also points towards Valerie D'Orazio's goal-setting list for the new initiative, the very cheery, ambition and manifesto-like Comics Revolution 2012. If that gets some traction I'll comment, but I in short think advocacy within any art form always comes down to the two-pronged goal of excellence in art/ethics in industry, and that I tend not to care about other goals as much.
