Bundled, Tossed, Untied And Stacked: Publishing News



By Tom Spurgeon

* looks like Floating World has released a second publication via its micro-press imprint: Johnny Viable And His Terse Friends #1. I dream of a world where every comics entity has a micro-press imprint.

* was reminded while bouncing around the Internet that was going to be doing a kids' book with Robert Goodin. That's very good news no matter when, where or how you process it fully.

* Hayao Miyazaki isn't sure he'll be able to finish his samurai manga.

* I can't even imagine being a superhero comics reader and having to deal with something like soft relaunches pivoting on character development points. I think that would drive me bonkers.

* totally missed that we're getting a paperback version of the all-in-one Far Side collection. That's good news, in that that's fine work and as many formats get that into people's hands, I'm for.

* I missed this announcement for Roger Langridge working with the Mandrake The Magician character, and I'm not even sure I knew about a revival of any King comics.

* this article at CBR suggests that the popular mainstream writer Scott Snyder may take an extended sabbatical at some point.

* here's a look at several pages from the forthcoming Ulli Lust, a collaboration with Marcel Bayer.

* Chris Arrant digs into Fantagraphics' announcement they'll be publishing Eternonaut.

* whoa, new Megan Kelso mini-comic.

* a next round of mini-kus! comics is imminent.

* finally, I'm not sure why I didn't know this was at least imminent, but Frank Young has released the 1950s John Stanley bibliography.
