Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* this Walker Bean-related window display looks tremendous.

* there's a short piece up at the French-language comics clearinghouse ActuaBD.com about the difficult position that comics aimed at kids may be put into trying to balance hitting with their appropriate age group and a few larger marketing issues that may keep them from doing so.

* not comics: "August Is Not The Best Time To Visit Baghdad"

* Mike Lynch provides a model invoice for cartoon-related work.

* how can this not be everyone's favorite, short news item of the day?

* Kiel Phegley talks about the recent Chicago Wizard show from a super-appropriate point of view: the comics he bought there. That used to be why people went to conventions, to buy all the comics they had no chance of getting at home. He sidesteps any serious commentary about the state of the show but as his post starts funny and finished funny, he should be forgiven everything except maybe that tepid endorsement of Ganges #2.

* Stan Lee meets Marshall McLuhan.

* people are going to link the crap out of this if they haven't already, but Bully shows us what you do if the news cycle is slow: you double-down on the length of time spent on features, like this one about the period of time between fads arriving on the scene and when they make their way to Archie and the Riverdale gang.

* finally, is it my imagination, or does this cover make the Mark Millar's forthcoming publication look like a lost issue of Comic Foundry?
