Random Comics News Story Round-Up
* Daryl Cagle talks to Hajo about the cartoon where President Obama is depicted like a baboon from The Lion King. I don't think a cartoon like that one suggests the cartoonist is racist, just that they made a piece of art with troubling aspects. If a clear path to the heart of the artist and definitive proof that the artist is a flat-out Bull Connor racist were the only standard that counts, that really limits any serious conversation about art. Then again, since that kind of TV-show racism is sometimes assumed, it's hard to tell someone not to defend themselves that way.
