Comics Employment/Movement Updates

* the best place for commentary on Ted Rall's departure from United Media is the comments thread at Alan Gardner's post on the news at his Daily Cartoonist. For some reason, it keeps threatening to devolve into the same, largely idiotic discussion about webcomics vs. traditional syndication that shows up a lot more than is necessary or applicable, but there's a lot of interesting stuff there beyond the trotting out of the usual pathologies.

* I have an e-mail in my inbox that was forwarded to me by someone I don't know that indicates longtime Wizard employee Karen Evora-Adamy is now running her own advertising agency called EVORA Advertising. Her list of clients includes Long Beach Comic Con, which is run by another former Wizard person, Martha Donato. That seems to me something that's either popped up or simply stands to benefit because Wizard canceled/suspended its LA show.

* another piece of employment news I forget to mention is that Milt Priggee is working with the new on-line Seattle PI. I think I have mentioned that former Daily News staffer Patrick O'Connor is doing some freelance work for the LA Times, but it can be noted one more time.
