Random Comics News Story Round-Up

walks his readers through ordering one of those variant cover initiatives that is paired with sales goals. It's very enlightening.
* festivals extra: I agree with
this writer that it's a relief to go to comics shows that are about comics as opposed to every single flourish of pop culture, although it's worth noting that Comic-Con International always had a broad mandate, with pop-culture guests from other media since their beginning.
* Steve Heller goes deep on
How To Read Nancy.
* Julia Wertz
has conversations with her mother on
The New Yorker.
*
epic Village Voice rant by Derf. He's correct in that there was a point that the
Voice was vital enough to be talked about constantly especially by culture-heads, and that this had nothing to do with design. He's also right in that they fired Feiffer for money concerns and had a comics issue when they had no comics, although I barely remember the cheekiness of that second one.
* finally, go look:
Carson McNamara.
