Random Comics News Story Round-Up

image* Johanna Draper Carlson on Anne Happy: Unhappy Go Lucky! Vol. 1. Alan David Doane on Palooka-Ville #22. Paul Tumey on Gus Mager's comics.

* Simon Moreton talks about his own Plans We Made.

* what a great panel.

* not comics: everyone means well, but there's really nothing less hopeful and optimistic than the idea of hope and optimism as branding tools.

* speaking of which, I love this Gil Kane two-page spread. It's amazing to me that so many artists in the commercial art field that comics was at the time would do these knockout pages, almost semi-frequently, as if the time spent on a single page would somehow pay off later on.

* Mr. Lynch would prefer you not call Mr. Schulz "Sparky."

* John Reiner talks to Mort Drucker. Someone at Techsmart talks to the great Joe Daly. Dror profiles Siné.

* finally, I want to see the fight before this picture where Speedy shoots that huge guy up and down his shoulders and arms.
