Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* Rob Tornoe has another of his lengthy features up at Editor & Publisher, this time on staff cartoonists.

image* David Brothers pummels Grant Morrison. Sean Collins pointed out here that this basic Grant Morrison primer is pretty good, and indeed it is. I do miss the inclusion of his very good early works St. Swithin's Day and New Adventures Of Hitler if you're going to list over a dozen Morrison works -- I can't remember if Marvel Boy made the list or not, either.

* this picture of Usagi Yojimbo as Prince Valiant is fairly adorable.

* Bully reacts to yesterday's East Coast earthquake as only Bully can manage. Daryl Cagle rounds up initial editorial cartoon reaction. Mike Sterling confesses to the earthquake's cause.

* not comics: a painting of Warren Ellis.

* J. Caleb Mozzocco notes that Marvel has many more female creators working on November comics than DC does.

* Don MacPherson reviews Spontaneous #1-2. Gary Tyrrell doesn't really review as much as strongly recommends Zahra's Paradise. Sean Collins would like you to look at a scary webcomic. There's a sound element involved, so be careful with your settings.

* Theo Ellsworth muses on the loss of a studio.

* finally, here's Jog's top ten favorite comics list.
