Bundled, Tossed, Untied And Stacked



By Tom Spurgeon

* the webcomics-focused blogger Gary Tyrrell notes that the last episode of Scary Go Round is schedule for September 11 with the new feature by John Allison ready to that next Monday.

* the cartoonist Paul Rainey's webcomic The Book Of Lists will have a print edition.

* the first guest on the first War Rocket Ajax podcast is Matt Fraction. I want as many high-quality podcasts as possible to launch until I lose the compulsion to launch one of my own, so get to it, everybody.

* I'm not sure this is all-the-way new news, but DC will be reprinting Stuck Rubber Baby in 2010, with an introduction by Alison Bechdel. (The current edition has one I believe by Tony Kushner.) SRB was part of the 1994-1995 mini-explosion of substantial graphic novels that was in my opinion a flat-out preview to the publishing landscape we enjoy now on an almost month-to-month basis. It was also I believe finished with the help of Howard Cruse selling original pages as he went along instead of merely enjoying the fat advance he would no doubt enjoy were it being published for the first time today.

* the writer about comics Bill Baker is in the process of moving all of his on-line activities to his Bill Baker Presents... site.

* the Hero Initiative's next comics-related covers project will feature Wolverine.

* finally, this column by J. Caleb Mozzocco on Previews listings for DC Comics notes that any long time ago initial plans that suggested their current Blackest Night event series would remain mostly or entirely self-contained obviously changed, and there seem to be a fine number of crossovers of that event into various titles and mini-series. Maybe not a crisis-number of crossovers, but plenty.
