Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* here's a report on STAPLE through the books picked up by one attendee.

* J. Caleb Mozzocco on All-New X-Men Vol. 5. Sean Gaffney on Accel World: The Twilight Marauder. Rob McMonigal on Masks 2 #1.

* I don't know enough about marketing/product/content initiatives like DC Super Hero Girls to know if it's going to succeed or not. I can predict one or two objections -- like I'm sure that some people don't want toys for girls cordoned off from the rest of the "universes" and "worlds" and toy lines. The primary fun I have is looking at a line like DC through the eyes of a toy company or a content creators that wants to do something with them, which characters get singled o ut.

* Sam Bosma draws Mulholland Drive.

* here's the cover for the debut book by Jeremy Baum, being published by Fantagraphics. Speaking of imminent work, it looks like the next issue of Pope Hats is an all-color one.

* here are some of the times Batman wore armor. That jumped out at me because you'd think storyline-wise that would be a weird thing but apparently it's not. On a lot of levels, the big superhero characters are pretty exhausted.

* how Warren Ellis works.

* finally, Todd Klein looks at a Dracula logo.
