Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* Johanna Draper Carlson on Elk's Run #1. Abraham Riesman on Chicago. Michael Bround on COPRA. Andy Oliver on A Bit Of Undigested Potato.

* there is nothing more fun than an old comic-book cover done in wash.

* cartoonist Ed Piskor notes that Frank Miller's classic run of Daredevil was like many Marvel comics sold as a black and white in certain European countries. That would seem very much worth collecting if you were obsessively into those comics. I wouldn't mind seeing them, and save for the later Mazzucchelli run as collected by IDW I haven't read them in any format for years.

* I always like looking at David Lasky's work: here he posts a rough and a final for one of his more well-known works, a polar bear cartoon that appeared in the Chicago Reader.

* here's a peek at Kevin Necessary, one of a handful of cartoonists employed by broadcast news organizations.

* it's nice to see cartoonists enjoy enough cultural penetration that they're lauded for their work when they make appearances. It wasn't always like that.

* Mark Maynard talks to Phoebe Gloeckner.

* finally, I don't think I've ever seen this particular Jaime Hernandez commercial art from a couple of years ago.
