Bundled, Tossed, Untied And Stacked
By Tom Spurgeon
* everyone's favorite Latvian twin-anthology enterprise
will soon feature an effort with special co-editor Anne Koyama, so of course there's a fine-looking cover from Michael DeForge.
*
Smoo Comics #6
is available for pre-order.
* I hope I remembered to mention somewhere that
the Grantbridge Street blog was shutting down. That blog had some great random scan posts, drawing from all sorts of odd material. I'm intrigued moving forward how much of what goes on with the Internet will be anchored by modes of communication slightly out of favor -- like I think there will still be a place for content-driven blogs, but most people won't be doing them. That could just be wishful thinking, I admit.
* kaBOOM! will expand its well-received
Adventure Time line with
Adventure Time: Fiona And Cake.
* I don't usually talk about prints and the like on here, because they're prints and the like, but
Dustin Harbin is re-issuing some of his more popular prints and I wanted to note the next time he did that because I got some work of that kind from him recently and liked it enough to frame it.
* I had been saving this for this Friday's launch of a digital comics publishing news clearinghouse column, but the publisher was afraid that maybe North America had never heard of Hunt Emerson. Let me assure him we have:
a new iPad-oriented collection of that very fun and accomplished artist's work now exists.
* fun with the Amazon.com advanced search function, mid-summer 2013 edition:
Map Of Days,
Eye Of The Majestic Creature Vol. 2,
Sibyl-Anne And The Honeybees,
a Paul Levitz book about the Silver Age Of Comics and one that made smile:
a big Virgil Partch book from Fantagraphics.
* finally, I don't know that I'd seen the cover for the D+Q reprint of
The Freddie Stories before it was e-mailed to me.
Nice.
