Random Comics News Story Round-Up

image* Richard Burton on XIII: The Irish Version. Michael Kammen on Thomas Nast: Father Of Modern Political Cartoons. Rob Clough on Windowpane. Tucker Stone and friends on a bunch of different comics. Robert Boyd on various comics. Noah Berlatsky on Seven Miles A Second.

* Dave Sim clarifies his thoughts on prostitution, as his name was apparently invoked in an essay about Chester Brown.

* not comics: I'm going to run this same bullet-point for this entire week to see if it makes any discernible difference. In case you didn't know, this site has a related twitter feed and a Facebook page. I've been kind of undependable about updating them in a way that makes any sense in relation to this site. The twitter account is basically an insult machine, and the Facebook page gets neglected for days at a time. But I'm hoping to get better, and it's not a big commitment on your part to follow either one, if you're so inclined.

* I like this Dylan Horrocks panel.

* Michael Dooley talks to Denis Kitchen. Gary Groth talks to Jerry Moriarty. RC Harvey profiles Stan Lynde. Joseph Epstein on Saul Steinberg. Jim Rugg, Jasen Lex and Ed Piskor talk to Faith Erin Hicks.

* finally, Chris Mautner walks new readers through Winsor McCay.
