Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* wow, this comics-focused residency program at the Atlantic Center of the Arts announced by Craig Thompson could be a dream come true if you have a project you're working and maybe just a dream generally.

* Dwayne Booth/Mr. Fish has been laid off from his position at Village Voice/LA Weekly, he says as a cost-cutting maneuver. His full reaction and Daryl Cagle's complimentary re-introduction of the cartoonist can be found here. As Cagle points out, Booth survived a severe purge at the publication just last year.

* this sounds important: the 2009 Japanese Manga Magazine circulation numbers. Short story: most publications are down, but a few went up.

* Heidi MacDonald caught that CCI single-day passes for Friday have sold out. The convention, which has seen an enormous surge in popularity of the last five years, has already sold out of four-day passes both with and without preview night access, as well as Saturday-only passes. Passes for Thursday and Sunday remain available. Just astonishing.

* it's been way too long since I've made anything substantial, but I still love to read finished-with-project announcements from other folks.

* finally: another day, another gem from the back of Mike Sterling's closet.
