Random Comics News Story Round-Up

image* John Seven on The Fun Family.

* I don't usually like "hey, a plot point in a comic book" articles, but these are some pretty fun Superman images that 11-year-old me would have liked. I have zero interest in reading the comic book so why not enjoy?

* if you're in Sacramento, and you're between the ages of 10-15, and you have a bit of cash, you can go to after-school comics camp in October. I imagine that's way better than piano lessons.

* Hope Larson uploaded a script for Goldie Vance #1. That's always a nice resource.

* Rob McMonigal profiles Lucy Bellwood in advance of SPX. Paul Gravett profiles François Boucq.

* I have yet to read the article, but those panels up top are ugly and kind of great in their own way. I do miss that a bit about the fictional Marvel Universe of my youth: it was a bit de-powered. How to get places was a thing, and everyone wasn't gunned and powered and immortal like an RPG character trying to beat the game. It never occurred to little-kid me that anyone could come back from something like this, and I think I would have liked it less if I thought it possible.

* Bruce Canwell gets into the discussion that Hugh Hefner and Milton Caniff had once upon a time.

* finally, David Press praises specific elements of the Black Panther comic.
