Bundled, Tossed, Untied And Stacked
By Tom Spurgeon
* Kevin Huizenga
posts a random image and what looks like maybe a cover for the forthcoming
Ganges #3. The first two issues were both top five comics of the year on a lot of lists the years they came out, so just the hint that something with that recent pedigree is coming seems to me grand news.
* IDW
is set to publish a print anthology from the ACT-I-VATE webcomics collective.

* one project that's completely escaped my attention is a reprinting of Howard Chaykin's
Blackhawk mini-series, the place many in my generation of comics readers first saw a discreet depiction of a comic book blowjob. I'm kidding; I remember enjoying the series very much.
Here's a write-up on the collection from Pretty Fakes.
* Frederik Stromberg
has converted his site into English.
* here's
a cover image for the first John Campbell book.
* Oscar Grillo's
The World Is Round is due to be reprinted.
* Titan is gearing up for the assumption of the Lenore publishing reins,
starting in October.
* Dash Shaw and Tom Kaczynski
are collaborating on a comic.
* I thought this had been announced much, much earlier, but I'm not comfortable saying that with 100 percent certainty
so here you go: Archie is going to do one-shot specials bringing back their superhero characters, all of which are to be written by Michael Uslan.
* the arrival of Hans Rickheit's
Squirrel Machine is imminent.
* David Welsh finds two manga titles a-comin'
that make him happy enough to do the Snoopy dance.
* SLG
is planning to publish a comic book series about Sarah Winchester, a deserving historical figure that may or may not be served by a story in which the villain is Harry Houdini's ghost.
* finally, our pal Rich Tommaso wrote in to say that La Cupula is publishing a version of his
The Horror Of Collier County in Spain and that Ca et La will publish a book version of his latest project
Miriam (image at bottom) that will include the entirety of Alternative's issue #1 and the yet to be placed with a US publisher issue #2.
