Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* I was wondering the other day when we might see some more writing about comics from Steven Grant, one of the early big figure in on-line comics culture commentary and writer of comics himself. Here he is on bad comics.

image* Greg Burgas on Marathon. Greg McElhatton on Hawkeye #2. Don MacPherson on Phantom Stranger #0. Derik Badman on Dragonlance. Sean Gaffney on Orelmo Vol. 1. Grant Goggans on Judge Dredd's Day Of Chaos. J. Caleb Mozzocco on Batman Vs. Bane. Johanna Draper Carlson on Spike #2.

* Tim from Deconstructing Comics sent me a note saying they're looking for someone that can talk about CLAMP and Magic Knight Rayearth with them. I've been on their show and have enjoyed those conversations. You can e-mail them .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) if you qualify and are interested.

* not comics: "Old age is the most unexpected of all the things that happen to a man."

* here's a report from Nick Gazin from a recent gallery opening featuring the work John Pham and Rob Sato. Everyone at the opening appears to be 15 years old, but otherwise it looks like a fantastic evening. I'm a big fan of Pham's.

* have you been following this week's tribute to Charles Schulz in Mutts?

* finally, I'm a little late to this, mostly because I have a hard time just using photos when they're sent along, but I think Geoff Johns doing this kind of community outreach is a good thing.
