Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* I like Spider-Man and I wish our next President every piece of good fortune in the world, and I still don't understand why anyone would care about this at all. I'd go on, but if you travel too far into old man's land, there's no coming back.

* folks keep e-mailing me that Colleen Coover has a proper blog now, which means that someone out there noticed it first.

* there's an awesome Jim Rugg comic here I've either seen before and forgotten or hadn't seen yet.

* Tim Hodler recommends some Edward Gorey.

* not comics, or at least not that I know of at this time: Borders has been sued by a small prose publisher accusing it of churning.

* there's an interesting post a couple down in Darryl Cagle's largely non-linkable blog where cartoonist Larry Wright comments on the compression and move on-line experienced by Detroit-area newspapers.

* random newspaper section funnies round-up.

* Mike Lynch hosts Juana Medina's statement on what winning the Jay Kennedy Memorial Scholarship has meant.

* finally, Sean Kleefeld muses on moving the bulk of his reading away from the purchase of comics and into free comics. I always suggest something similar to comics fans, although I don't draw as strong a distinction. What I suggest is to orient your comics-reading towards reading comics as opposed to purchasing them, although what I find -- and this may be different than Sean -- is that once you do that you still buy comics, you just get a higher rate of satisfaction from them because your focus isn't on the act of purchasing them.
