CR Week In Review



The top comics-related news stories from May 5 to May 11, 2007:

1. Cartoonist Ahmed Abbas freed in the Maldives months after being put in jail for statements in a newspaper. He reports he spent much of the time drawing.

2. Marvel's latest Spider-Man movie opens up with the expected big box office numbers; the yawning chasm of what comes now brings attention to Marvel's second-stage movie strategy and the longterm health of the media company. As noted, none of this seems to have an effect on the publishing division.

3. FCBD concludes without much in the way of controversy, a solid if not universal part of the comics landscape.
