Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* I greatly enjoyed this Alan Moore interview at Wired that's been posted everywhere by now. Moore sounds like a cranky, opinionated, working artist in the afternoon of his career, which is exactly how he should sound. Sean T. Collins didn't like the film stuff.

* the Oregonian is apparently revamping its comics page. What I like about it is that the editor reserves the right to make some decisions about the comics page his own self. I hope that either the editor or the good readers of that fine publication consider Cul De Sac as one of the keepers.

* a manga and anime pirate site goes legit.

* the writer Kevin Church asks if even the successful media reach-out events really make a major difference to the retailer's bottom line, or if they're limited to the purchase itself. Kevin makes it sound much less snotty and more open-minded than I just did.

* I'm not sure if I know everything Daryl Cagle is getting at here, but I really like the phrase "Since this toilet looks like such an obvious spot for Obama..."

* finally, it probably wouldn't be the best idea, but I sure wouldn't mind if the major company blogs turned into photo-pornish arrays of forthcoming books. I really wouldn't.
