CR Week In Review

The top comics-related news stories from July 2 to July 8, 2016:

1. Big Brother Comics in Sacramento lost to a fire. GoFundMe established for owner, who lived in the same building as his shop.

2. Rick Friday returns to Farm News.

3. Harvey Awards nominees announced for this year's iteration of the long-running awards program. A program whose open nominations process makes the occasional working-their-friends-and-coworker candidate possible posted results that suggested that for this year Valiant and its circle of professionals were the most active filling out the somewhat-laborious nominations sheet. "No rules were broken"/"I can't believe they even nailed down the humor category" debates flourished on-line and off.

Winner Of The Week
Metaphrog.

Loser Of The Week
It may be Jim Wheelock, unfortunately.

Quote Of The Week
"In the late thirties, [Peter] Arno designed a jet-black, low-slung roadster that echoed his graceful lines. Unfortunately, he named it the Albatross rather than the Arnomobile." -- Richard Gehr
