Random Comics News Story Round-Up

image* Richard Bruton on Brass Sun. Some person near a wooden surface on Robert Moses: The Master Builder Of New York City. Jennie on The Sculptor.

* go, read: Roz Chast's The Runaway Bunny.

* not comics: Scott McCloud's The Sculptor has secured a movie deal. I don't know what the First Second contract is like other-media wise, I bet it's pretty good, and I'm happy for creators to see return on their work in that direction if that's a goal of theirs. It's hard to make a living as a cartoonist, harder all of the time, and who doesn't love the McClouds? Also, I'm pretty sure The New Adventures Of Abraham Lincoln is less than 20 years old, so I wish that 20-year figure could be excised from wherever people are getting it.

* here's one place you can cast a vote for comics; here's another; here's yet another.

* Andrew Yates talks to Marian Churchland. Alex Hoffman talks to Katie Skelly. June Thomas profiles Matt Groening and Lynda Barry. Jen Vaughn profiles RJ Casey.

* what an awesome picture of Sal Buscema by Sal Buscema.

* finally, Keith Knight pays tribute to Songs In The Key Of Life, a mighty album from a great pop artist.
