Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* the California-based publisher IDW will do comics biographies of each of the major party presidential candidates to be published in October. I think what may make that article worth taking a look at for many of you is to note that it will have a concurrent release in digital form.

* this will be repeated in this site's new publishing news round-up, "Bound, Tossed, United and Stacked" next week, but it's good enough news not to share it with you right now: PWCW has details on the forthcoming 600-plus paged Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers Omnibus from Knockabout.

* the cartoonist Matt Richtel talks at length about a recent plotline in Rudy Park and how it reflects the expanded opportunity to interact to and connect with an audience in today's on-line world.

* the Boom! staffer Ian Brill talks about his not being as enthusiastic a fan as those he sees enjoying themselves in San Diego. I would imagine most people working in the various entertainment industries aren't the biggest fans, but it's a nice little post.

* what would you do with this much store credit?

* finally, while a lot of bloggers reading this interview picked up on Alan Moore's hostility towards movies based on his work, and a few picked up on his love for The Wire, I haven't seen anyone comment on what I thought was the most interesting aspect: the notion that doing the next League of Extraordinary Gentlemen volume for Top Shelf instead of DC has changed the way he and Kevin O'Neill are working on the book.
