Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* so Fantagraphics is doing digital-only releases now? I did not know this.

* Rob Clough on My Dirty, Dumb Eyes. Kevin Cortez on The Outliers. Andrew Weiss on some early issues of Amazing Heroes. Rob Bricken on Saga. Lauren Davis on The Young Protectors. Gavok on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Rob Clough on a bunch of different mini-comics. Bob Temuka on a pair of superhero series helmed by older mainstream creators. Matt Derman on Green Arrow: The Longbow Hunters #1-3. Sean Gaffney on D.Gray-Man Vols. 1-3. Johanna Draper Carlson on Strobe Edge Vol. 5. Kelly Thompson on Hawkeye #12 and Adventure Time: Candy Capers #1.

* the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum is on the move, and they have a lot of a stuff.

* that's a lovely piece of Bagge/Blanchard poster art. Ditto this Jack Kirby page.

* the writer and comics historian Mark Evanier is rounding into his final few posts before San Diego, where he will moderate 1,072 panels as Mark Evanier Red and Mark Evanier Blue.

* Boulet visited RISD and was confused by the movie-ready status of its student population.

* Doug Dorr talks to Kevin Cross.

* Johanna Draper Carlson argues that we won't get good industry journalism until people are willing to pay for it. I don't know, I guess that's true. While more money doesn't = better journalism, you need at least some money to have any sort of journalism at all. I would maintain that we can also get better journalism for the money we're paying right now. I know CR could be a lot better; it brings in enough money to be much better than it is, anyway.

* Jim Woodring is wonderful.

* finally, there's a lengthy article here about that wonderful comics-maker Al Wiseman, including a ton of art.
