Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* the talented editorial cartoonist Jack Ohman asks if a cartoonist is a journalist? I had never read the Rube Goldberg line.

* Zack Smith talks to Farel Dalrymple. Josh Kopin talks to Jason Lutes and Donna Almendrala.

* not comics: you can buy Darryl Cunningham-decorated luggage now.

* now all we need is a real time machine to go back and replenish our collections. (via Danny Ceballos)

* here's a piece on reading comics versus collecting them, the twist being the presence of what digital comics means for both impulses. I'm not really harsh on collecting comics; I think that's a perfectly fine thing to do with your time and money although I'm a terrible collector of everything except inertia. It is weird to pursue collectible monies in a way that harms the reading one, but only because it seems unnecessary.

* check out this great, intimidating photo of that nice man Ivan Brunetti.

* Johanna Draper Carlson on Nothing Can Possibly Go Wrong. Grant Goggans on The Man With No Libido.

* J. Caleb Mozzocco is very excited about this Mister Mind. That original Mister Mind design is one of the all-time greats, though.

* Todd Klein's favorite Superman memory.

* finally, Steve Willis has posted the text from a key article in the popular movement against comics in the late 1940s.
