Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* here's an article with a lovely photo, from the Rory Root memorial over the weekend. I hope people are directed to that article rather than having the picture presented to them by people that ganked it.

* is it weird that so many people care whether or not Dan DiDio is fired or retained?

* Oni has signed an on-line comics production partnership. I wish I could say I wanted to see any of the comics they talk about, although admittedly I'm likely not the target audience.

* is it just me, or does it seem like there's a lot of these kinds of projects right now?

* Quebecor World integrates.

* Steve Niles and Gary Panter to team up?

* the cartoonist Daniel Merlin Goodbrey has launched a new project.

* Gary Tyrrell notes that in the announcement that Wowio is going to be retooled under new ownership is a line that suggests their arrangements with content providers are among those elements to be retooled. This would be worth noting, as people have seemed generally happy with those arrangements to date, and one might infer that this would change in favor of a relationship that better served the corporate half of the relationship. It's an inference, mind you.

* here's another one of those comics trailers, this time for Therefore, Repent!.

* if I were in San Francsico, I'd go to this. If I were running the arts center, I'd use a web site that didn't freak out every second time you try to re-load it, too.

* Fantagraphics' next several months, including the line-up of interview and cover features at the Comics Journal, previewed via catalog.

* finally, I don't know enough about it to endorse this open call for submissions to a comics anthology, but I figure there's no harm in letting people know about it.
