Random Comics News Story Round-Up

image* Philippe Leblanc on It's Me. Sean Gaffney on Ranma 1/2 Vols. 35-36. Paul O'Brien on All New X-Men #14-16.

* more random notes about working on his new computer from the great Todd Klein.

* the comics-focused staff at Paste suggests a dozen things they'd like to see in the North American comics industry in 2017. It's a mainstream-focused perspective that some who engage with comics from the alt- and art comics worlds might not totally get, but the sentiment behind each thing is genuine and if they all happen comics would be a better place than it was before. It's interesting that many of the hoped-for outcomes involve industry entities acting in more enlightened fashion; there's not a lot of reinventing the wheel here.

* Sean Edgar talks to Matt Kindt.

* finally: Gilbert Hernandez, sign-maker. Melissa Benoist, superhero. James Kochalka, sloganeer. Ann and Signe, nasty women. Lisa Hanawalt, marcher. That was a really good day, I think.
