Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* Johnny Ryan crushes the Ten Rules assignment at the Ten Rules site.

* for some reason I missed posting this Michael Cavna story giving details on the Bill Watterson/Richard Thompson art show at Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum that I mentioned in my MIX report: that's going to be the first show after the broad survey-type show they're doing with Brian Walker to open the place. That one will open in late March, and hopefully we can all go see it during that season's intense national criss-cross of worthy comics conventions and festivals.

* Frank Santoro visits the Fantagraphics offices (he's with Kevin Huizenga) and then drives up to Vancouver where he hangs out with Brandon Graham and Robin McConnell. An actual check from a comics company to a creator is shown.

* not comics: blow me.

* Bob Temuka praises a few of the bigger MAD creators during the primetime of its most successful, most mainstream newsstand run, and casts reading MAD as a routine rite of passage.

* John Kane on a bunch of different comics. Paul O'Brien on X-Men Legacy #16-18. J. Caleb Mozzocco on Wolverine Volume One: Hunting Season. Michael Buntag on Mind MGMT #8-12. Jeffrey O. Gustafson on another storyline from Ex Machina. Johanna Draper Carlson on How Not To Be A Dick: An Everyday Etiquette Guide. Rob Clough on a bunch of mini-comics. Richard Bruton on Aleister Crowley -- Wandering The Waste and Wu Wei.

* finally, superheroes got sort of weird there for a while.
