Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* this is an interesting issue: whether or not mocking an asshole with dumb political views and a history of harmful lashing out is a good thing or just more publicity for a publicity-starved person. I don't know where I stand, although my hunch is that in these times jerky behavior cannot be mocked away.

* I am for just about every provocative thought that falls short of "and then the subject matter of this thought was harmed because of the thought."

* I like about half of the books offered up on this short list in Esquire.

* Graeme McMillan talks to Dan DiDio and Jim Lee. I don't detect a whole lot here that's either new or very specific, although I guess I didn't know about the Snapchat thing, whatever the hell that is. It's a good time for that company in terms of its ongoing battles with Marvel.

* finally: that's an amazing couple made from two amazing couples + two tragedies. All happiness to them.
