Making Comics Press Assault Begins

It will be impossible to do this every day, but here's a snapshot of Scott McCloud-related items as he kicks off his nationwide tour with the release of his book Making Comics yesterday. As I said yesterday, I think it's worth keeping apprised of McCloud's efforts because the book is highly anticipated and the publicity effort promises to combine modern (dedicated group blogging!) and retro (comic book store appearances!) techniques. This includes McCloud and his family driving to every state supporting the book, and, one hopes, solving the occasional crime.

* Interview at Comic Book Resources about the 50-state tour in support of Making Comics.

* Interview on The Leonard Lopate Show.

* signings: at Midtown Comics on Friday; at Rocketship on Saturday.

* anyone interested in tracking the publicity tour is once again encouraged to bookmark the McCloud family's livejournal community devoted to same.

* TCJ Message Board discusses, mocks, makes odd comparisons.
