Random Comics News Story Round-Up

image* Sean Gaffney on 12 Beast Vol. 1. Todd Klein on Swamp Thing #40 and Green Lantern #40.

* Alex Dueben talks to Tom DeFalco. Gary Groth talks to Daniel Clowes back in 1992. Michael C. Lorah talks to Darryl Cunningham.

* and I thought "Ross Andru Or Jim Mooney" was a nerdy game.

* more from/on Ariell Johnson, the young woman that is heading towards comics shop ownership in Philadelphia.

* save this for link for when you start having a bad morning.

* not comics: this article that purports to be about forthcoming movie releases not from the Big Two of Marvel and DC reads more like a walk-through of old and forgotten movie deals at points, like one of those entries in an Amazing Heroes Preview Special that's a repeat because no comics were published.

* I'm not even a Star Wars fan, and I found this to be an incredibly weird page.

* Charles Schulz forever. Even an ungenerous appraisal of Peanuts has him doing 30-35 years of top-notch, odd, idiosyncratic, personal and affecting comics.

* this article about a very specific slice of comics fandom intrigued me for being kind of all over the place. I thought there were some nuggets there worth mining, but some of the accusations I had a difficult time tracking and thus weren't very convincing to me.

* finally, Tony Isabella is preparing a memoir.
