Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* here's an audio interview with Dylan Horrocks. A Dylan Horrocks interview is always a great thing.

* Matt Brady looks at Tezuka's ability to bring visual interest to whatever he's drawing.

* I enjoyed this piece about Matt Wuerker's response to his Herblock Prize win.

* not comics: Chris Allen talks about that Roger Ebert Esquire profile that has driven a great deal of conversation around the Internet. That was a good piece, but I didn't find it as heartbreaking as I hear over and over and over again. I thought it was life-affirming and kind of happy. You can do a lot worse in life than a final act pared down to essentials, partnered with someone you love. The most sorrow that Ebert himself evinced was when remembering Gene Siskel's proud path out of this existence, not anything that's happened to him. For me the saddest part was Disney dumping the set of the TV show after promising to send it to the Smithsonian.

* Brad Mackay talks at length about the Doug Wright Awards.

* Mark Kalesniko has an art blog.

* may God help me, but I like this Dazzler cover and logo. I felt so self-conscious about it I googled it, and I somehow missed CR link fave Sean Collins having my back. There's no reason that couldn't be an ongoing comic and solid second-tier character from them.

* finally, it's brave to add a character to your long-running strip, even braver when you're not the strip's creator, braver yet when you expose yourself to 10,000 "Poochie" jokes.
