The top comics-related news stories from September 23 to September 29, 2006:

1. After six-month hiatus, Aaron McGruder declines to give a return date for his Boondocks; UPS to phase out re-runs by November 26.

2. Teguh Santosa indicted.

3. Iranian cartoonist Mana Neyestani not fined and sent home but in the midst of his trial?

Winner of the Week
The Fell Format.

Loser of the Week
Platinum Studios -- okay, they got another $1 million and signed a deal to do webcomics: still, there's more skepticism than ever before about their ability to make money for anyone other than their owners.

Quote of the Week
"I genuinely believe the clarion call of Millar's muse is the sound of the money truck backing up to his house." -- the snark never stops at Savage Critic.

I'm just sort of fond of that panel
