Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* I made a poor choice of images in presenting Ryan Cecil Smith on Queen Emeraldas yesterday. That was my error. I apologize to all involved. You should listen to the interview, so let me drive traffic to it one more time.

* hey, look: it's Gil Roth interviewing Michael Maslin, as depicted by Liza Donnelly.

image* Barry Thompson talks to James Kochalka. Byron Brewer talks to Jeff Parker. Annie Mok talks to Tillie Walden. Hillary Brown talks to Steffen Kverneland.

* John Kelly talks a long look at the early works of Peter Bagge. Robert Boyd on Cometbus #57. Kristen Lawson on Camp Midnight. Matt Morrison on Daredevil: Black In Black Volume One: Chinatown. Sean Gaffney on Fruits Basket Collector's Edition Vol. 4 and Monthly Girls' Nozaki-kun Vol. 4. Paul O'Brien on All-New Wolverine Annual #1. Rob Clough on Palefire and Space. Andy Oliver on Minor Leagues #1.

* Kelly Sue DeConnick and Margaret Atwood converse.

* I like how this post from Deb Aoki about Tsutomu Nihei has a description and multiple links and a video extra. That is more what an encounter over a convention weekend with a creator is usually like. I'm only familiar with Knights Of Sidonia but Nihei is an impressively skilled artist.

* this review over at The Beat engages with something I've thought on since the New 52: is Cyborg really an interesting enough character to promote him into the DC core heroes group?

* finally, Chris Pitzer writes about some of the advance work a publisher like himself might do for a show like SPX.
