CR Week In Review
The top comics-related news stories from May 10 to May 16, 2008:
1. Will Elder, one of the best comics illustrators of the 20th Century,
passes away.
2. Fantagraphics
signs an exclusive DM distribution deal and a Canadian book distribution deal with Diamond
3. Judge James Biernat
announces a ruling will be made next week on the motion to set aside the Michael George verdict; judge's statements and the fact that decision will come before sentencing indicates the motion has a good chance.
Winner Of The Week
Mike Mignola, at the Eagle Awards.
Loser Of The Week
Anyone that was waiting for those Eagle Awards results to finally come out.
Quote Of The Week
"Further stipulated: there are a lot of goofy, awkward, or perhaps even borderline evil things that have accreted or evolved over the last few decades in the Direct Market. Just because I love the DM, doesn't mean I love these things." --
Brian Hibbs
this week's imagery comes from pioneering comic book house Hillman Publications
