Random Comics News Story Round-Up

image* Rob Clough on Hot Or Not: 20th Century Male Artists. Kyle King on Superman #8. David Frankum on The Wormgler.

* a nice memory and tribute by Chris Sparks on what would have been the 59th birthday of his friend, the late great Richard Thompson.

* oh my God, they're making those human towers from that one Rick Veitch comic.

* I got a nice note in about this comic from its author, and the idea of reinterpreting a world that's more than hostile and broken from you perspective is super-appealing. I mean it's hard to look at that comic and not muse on how soaked into American self-identity that the Superman character is.

* I'm going to try and take one stab at a Collective Memory for this year's SPX after failing to get one up in a timely fashion. .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) In the meantime, enjoy this ever-expanding post from Tucker Stone about comics he got at that show.

* finally, the great Kevin Huizenga has an unsurprisingly great bunch of photos, many personal but many not.
