Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* I think it's always good when successful people within comics choose to give back through their support of its charitable efforts, and I like David Steinberg, so this strikes me as an overall good. A significant criticism of Amazon more generally is that those that work for the company and its various divisions do not routinely participate that way.

* that's a funny cartoon by KAL, but it doesn't seem like something you'd invest with a lot of weight unless you're already inclined to be on one team or the other. The idea that political functionaries get a free pass on the uglier parts of what they're saying when the core parts of those jobs seem in question strikes me as very right now.

* finally, I have a reader suggesting via e-mail that artist Robb Phipps died two days ago. I am unable to confirm or deny, although that would be an odd thing about which to tell an untruth. Any condolences that might apply we share.
