CR Week In Review

The top comics-related news stories from February 7 to February 13, 2015:

1. A cycle of harassment continues in Malaysia as the award-winning cartoonist Zunar arrested, detained in his home, eventually released. For a tweet.

2. Continuing a potential slight surge of support and interest in cartoonists being compensated fairly, comics folk rally around Rebecca Mock when her work is used, initially without credit and never with permission, by the recording artist, producer and DJ Diplo.

3. We're clearly settled into 2015: even the micro-presses have announced their 2015 publishing schedules, and you can get a hotel room for conventions to be held in the second half of the year.
