Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* Michael Netzer is thinking of Kim Thompson.

image* J. Caleb Mozzocco offers up a recent-book driven review round-up. Richard Bruton on Don't Be Fooled By The Rocks.

* always happy when a new comics shop opens up.

* Paul Gravett profiles Sarah Lightman. Someone at RadioNZ talks to Dylan Horrocks.

* everyone keeps sending me this New Yorker article on the cosmology of cartoonists, and for some reason I keep blowing it off. It's a pretty cute little article, too.

* Heidi MacDonald on the growth of graphic novel sections in libraries.

* not comics: this Winsor McCay advertisement to which Buzz Dixon sent along a link is indeed awesome-looking. Also awesome, as Dixon notes, is the idea of American intelligence unshackling itself in order to embrace the smoking of cigarettes.

* finally, Mark Evanier looks at a claim made by Howard Chaykin in his piece on Carmine Infantino.
