Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* love for key 'zines and comics retailer Reading Frenzy at the Drawn and Quarterly blog.

* Rob Clough reviews a pair of Toon Books and Chewing Gum In Church. Todd Klein on Green Lantern Corps #18. Grant Goggans on The Amazing Adventures Of Kavalier And Clay. J. Caleb Mozzocco on Secret Six: The Darkest House.

* Quill & Quire profiles Canadian-based Eisner Award nominees.

* not comics: Adrian Tomine illustrates Terrence Malick. As a bonus, here's another spotlight on Tomine's workspace.

* all about Georges Clooney.

* Martin Pasko writes on the Jerry Siegel/Joe Shuster character Superman, now 75 years into its publishing history.

* I've linked to some individual pieces by this year's Eisner Awards judges but not, I think, the Comic-Con published piece from the group.

* Jen Vaughn talks to Steven Weissman. Casey Gilly talks to Lucy Knisley. Steve Morris talks to Emma Vieceli.

* Laura Sneddon writes here on the latest incarnation of the Wonder Woman comic as a Wonder Woman comic. I am also a fan of early Etta Candy.

* finally, Matthew Jent writes a fun essay about how American Elf triggered a move to Vermont. "Major life decisions that came down to something in a comic" is a category that would make a pretty good Five For Friday, although maybe finding five such decisions would be pushing it.
