Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* Paul Mavrides points out the various failures at work within the comics community when it's come to varying levels of support for disgraced child molester and Dragon Con co-founder Ed Kramer.

* I wish Scott Stantis would stop by my studio and chat with me.

* not comics: here's a broad pop-culture think piece on the imminent release of a Captain Marvel movie adhering closely to the relaunch spearheaded by writer Kelly Sue DeConnick and her collaborators. I'm always uncomfortable with art being treated as a measured consumable, but I am for inclusive subject matter across the spectrum of entertainment and have witnessed how powerful an experience that can be for those that have not enjoyed seeing themselves reflected in these giant efforts the way they should have. I hope kids in particular get to enjoy a special moment or several with this film.

* Pat Kerrigan talks to Brian Fies. Kristen Ravin talks to James Sturm.

* finally: a controversial story with any number of difficult elements leads, non-surprisingly, to a cartoon backlash. It's hard to figure out why this one had to happen at all.
