Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* not comics: a slightly belated but still-vigorous congratulations to Neil Gaiman for winning the Cilip Carnegie Medal.

image* Matt Seneca has a bunch of notes up on Driven By Lemons, a work that will likely grow in reputation over the next several years. Providing a bunch of notes is an appropriate way to engage that book, I think.

* I don't know that I gave this Howard Cruse tour report the attention it deserved the moment it posts, but it's pretty fun. Segues are for kids!

* here is some more discussion about the notion that for whatever reason, Direct Market funnybook shops can be hostile to female customers: Jennifer de Guzman, Brigid Alverson.

* Johanna Draper Carlson uses a bunch of twitter posts about CCI portfolio reviews as a springboard for advice on how to find work that way.

* over at MightyGodKing, Jaime Weinman has a list of the stories that are in that new IDW Dan DeCarlo book.

* where Bill Jemas is employed now.

* if you stick around comics long enough, the stuff you used to talk about at the office as something funny and weird and super-nerdy that's happening as you speak will become fodder for someone's historical column.

* finally, the great Brian Chippendale has one of his intermittent reviews up, this time on the Avengers books currently undergoing a re-launch at Marvel.
