Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* Fred Fredericks, remembered.

image* Todd Klein on Aquaman #39. Matt Healey on Pies. Kevin Bramer on The Unmentionables. Richard Bruton on Death Of The Artist.

* this interview that consists entirely of personality burials isn't comics, but it's fun to imagine if it was. The idea of treating criticism as non-monolithic is a welcome one, too.

* go, read: I Allow Myself Poetry.

* not comics: I don't have anything to say about the Rolling Stone heave and collapse on that UVA story other than in not firing everyone they kind of nail a specific problem -- there's no one accountable on the journalism side of things for making sure that something meets bare minimums. That would be a hard place for which to work.

* all right, then.

* Bart Beaty writes about his recent experience making a book about 1960s Archies for The Chronicle Of Higher Education and frames it in terms of the privilege involved. That one is subscription-only, but if you have an in, I though you might to know it's there.

* Jesse Lucas talks to Jason Little. Calvin Reid talks to Nick Sousannis.

* finally, that is a lovely Herriman.
