CR Week In Review

The top comics-related news stories from November 29 to December 5, 2014:

1. Zunzi among several Occupy protestors to surrender in Hong Kong. They were released without charge. Zunzi's involvement indicates a deeper current of resistance to China's dominion over Hong Kong than I originally thought.

2. Word of an embezzlement episode at ComicsPRO hits the Internet, membership inboxes.

3. Mainstream newspaper editorial cartoonists continue to deal in various ways with the delicacy and intensity of current issues regarding such matters as race and police conduct. Here are a couple of readers' selections of ones they liked.

Quote Of The Week
"Cartooning is the hardest craft I ever did, because it's no-shit-everything-has-to-work. With a painting, you can fudge things. Everything in a cartoon has to work, like a car, or it won't run. I learned a lot about craft and discipline from cartooning, way more than from painting." -- Wayne White
