Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* sometimes I forget that Daryl Cagle operates a cartooning syndicate in addition to making cartoons of his own, so it's always nice to be reminded of this when he picks up a new client.

image* J. Caleb Mozzocco on Uncanny Avengers Volume Five: Axis Prelude. Richard Pachter on a bunch of different comics.

* what it's like learning from Derf.

* Garry Shores writes about the comics-buying days of his youth.

* I don't really care who gets to direct the next Spider-Man movie and as that kind of thing isn't in the purview of this site, I can always skip such stories and move onto the next one. But seeing this article's headline made me wonder who Drew Goddard is, and when I read the article I was struck by how much assumed knowledge there is in terms of the details and the implications of various moves and possibilities. It's a whole different world quite distinct from the comics and not secondary to them as I frequently assume -- without reason, I'm just being dumb. Further, someone who spent several hours on the couch as a teen reading the lastest issue of Amazing Heroes Preview Special as I did probably shouldn't find fault with anyone else's fandom of focused interest.

* cute: what Marvel characters are called in other countries.

* finally, Jillian Tamaki draws Annie Koyama.
