Random Comics News Story Round-Up

image* Chris Mautner on Blame This On The Boogie.

* by request extra: the Gahan Wilson crowdfunder is doing well, but getting to the initial goal is going to take one hell of an effort. He's had an amazing career. Let's support him as best we can through this era of diminished capacity. Tell a friend.

* finally: Nadja Sayej at the Guardian profiles Robert Crumb in support of a new exhibition. Crumb's lived enough of his life publicly that I would imagine very little new ground is broken in the responses. Update: A couple of readers begged to differ because of the article's focus on Crumb's saying he's lost a great deal of his libido. I have read him on that subject, although I imagine it's new for most people to hear. I'm also not sure how interesting a declaration that is in terms of how it shapes the end result -- I realize on that last point I'm probably way at odds with conventional wisdom.
