Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* go, read: Chris Butcher on the manga market through the comic-shop prism.

image* Richard Bruton on The Bluecoats Vol. 6. Bart Croonenborghs on White Cube. Rob Clough on a bunch of various comics, and then another bunch of various comics. Todd Klein on Flash #18. Sean T. Collins on Operation Vaporizer. Don MacPherson on Buddy Cops. Grant Goggans on Indigo Prime: Anthropocalypse. J. Caleb Mozzocco on Benjamin Bear In Bright Ideas.

* Rob Salkowitz makes a cogent couple of points in his letter to CR about the Saga #12 imbroglio from earlier this week. He notes that comiXology was clearly interested in disseminating the material because of its easy availability on every platform but the one in questions, and suggests that the policy via which it was temporarily unavailable through that channel is purposeful strategy rather than unfortunate result.

* not comics: I forgot to post a link to this article on writer-about-video-games Gus Mastrapa taking a step back when his child was born and wondering how that would have an impact on his relationship to that medium. That's an idea I've seen applied to comics, although maybe not as directly.

* finally, Johanna Draper Carlson notes that the relaunched Quantum And Woody won't have Christopher Priest writing it and therefore she has little to no interest in the project.
