The top comics-related news stories from October 10 to October 16, 2009:

1. Shoeshine boy cartoon: no apology, no worries.

2. Stitches becomes second graphic novel up for National Book Award; there's some huffing and puffing about it being in a Young Adult category that mostly goes away when word came out that it was the publisher's decision.

3. More convention drama, as Big Apple Comic-Con will open next year on the same weekend as NYCC; MoCCA's art festival slips back into Spring.

Winner Of The Week
Zapiro

Loser Of The Week
Anyone that thinks this cartoon is a) a death threat, b) a serious examination of our lives under diktat.

Quote Of The Week
Whatever is running through the mind of Joe Quesada in this picture.
