Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* Sean Gaffney on Black Bullet: Those Who Would Be Gods. James Whitbrook on Secret Love and Star Wars #8.

* Nicole LaPorte profiles Robert Kirkman. Seth Ferranti talks to Dave Crosland.

* Andrew Weiss writes about experiencing the Direct Market paradigm shift when things started to tip away from the newsstands and into the stores, and then takes us down memory lane with the crossover no one asked for -- well, the first one of those -- Total Eclipse.

* Shaenon Garrity writes on the Lalo Alcaraz to Pixar news. I'm glad for anyone to get work they want to do and don't bother myself with the backgrounds of things like that, but that seems like a pretty fun history to dig into a bit.

* speaking of Garrity, here she is on terrible superheroine names.

* here's an old-fashioned hero history of Monica Rambeau, a character that Marvel hasn't always treated well. She was around when I would buy superhero comics in the 1980s. Like for some reason, I'm pretty sure she's from New Orleans?

* finally, a Jack Kirby anecdote I'm not certain I'd heard before.
