Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* the cartoonist Dan Piraro lets us know that Parade has made their switch over to a larger stable of cartoonists, as was announced earlier as being in the works. Good cartoon, too.

* the Forbidden Planet Blog directed me to this article by Phill Jupitus about meeting Steve Bell and Garry Trudeau. The insight into each man's respective studio set-ups is worth the teeth grinding that may be caused by the author's opinion on Peanuts. Also, I think you have to have a charming accent to be able to pull off taking stuff to an interview for an interview subject to sign.

* well, this is ridiculously entertaining. It's not comics, though, unless there's some strange Dylan Horrocks-type way of thinking about it I don't quite grasp yet.

* the blogger Sean Kleefeld suggests that the level playing ground represented by comics on the Internet is a key to our getting past several decades of the comics industry neglecting to develop and utilize female creators.

* the cartoonist Eddie Campbell agrees with David Malki.

* finally, the writer Tucker Stone talks about the effect of superhero movies on comic books and why this is a both a non-existent and a good thing.
