Random Comics News Story Round-Up

image* Kevin Furguson talks to Gilbert Hernandez. Some nice person at KNPR talks to Gilbert Hernandez. JP Fallavollita talks to Oliver East. Zainab Akhtar talks to L. Nichols.

* so I guess there is an Amazon.com graphic novel bestsellers list now; actually, that's probably been around a while and is just now being employed the way is being employed here. I think.

* not comics: here's an article about recent lady movie superheroes. I would imagine the reason they don't have lady superhero movies is because dudes are reluctant to go to action movies starring ladies. I mean, that just seems pretty straight-forward to me. Maybe I'm wrong, who the hell knows?

* this article where a dude yells at multi-million dollar companies is a delight; it's like a band playing a medley of 20 years of Internet grousing.

* not comics: nice band name.

* Rob Clough on a couple of mini-comics anthologies. Todd Klein on Age Of Bronze #32. Justin... Giampaoli, maybe? on Burning Down The House. J. Caleb Mozzocco on the FCBD comics.

* finally, here's a video profile from The New Yorker on Dash Shaw; this went up on Tuesday, and I'm building some posts a few days ahead of time, so you've probably seen this by now. Still, that's a pretty good get.
