Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* this is sort of fascinating: a photo profile of Tintin fans (basically merchants selling Tintin stuff) in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

image* Michael Dooley talks to Roger Langridge. Paul Tobin talks to Jeff Parker.

* Johanna Draper Carlson recommends Gina Gagliano's career-related linkblogging.

* Brian Basset is selling a handpainted Calvin And Hobbes, which means we get to go stare at it. I sympathize with anyone that wants to sell valuable comics art. I sold my Peanuts when it struck me as absurd to have that much money up on my wall, and I didn't even have a pressing financial need. It's not like I loved Peanuts or that particular Peanuts any less.

* Todd Klein on Snarked! #7-8, The Family Circus: 1960-1961, Harlan Ellison's Phoenix Without Ashes, Frank Reade and Frankenstein Alive, Alive! #1. Don MacPherson Thanos: The Final Threat #1. Katherine Dacey on A Devil And Her Love Song Vol. 4. Sean Gaffney on Dorohedoro Vol. 7. Greg McElhatton on Ralph Azham Vol. 1.

* not comics: well, that's just terrifying.

* finally, I'm sure I'll pull this into its own post later this morning, but yesterday was the last Cul De Sac for print publication; in case you haven't heard it, I talked about the strip here for the Deconstructing Comics people.
