Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* I used to run "Local Cartoonist Profiles" all the time -- they were a genre of newspaper article. This is a "Local Cartoon Library Profile."

image* Jeffrey O. Gustafson on Avengers: Endless Wartime. Rob Clough on Supermag. J. Caleb Mozzocco on The AeroSmurf. Jeffrey O. Gustafson on Jusay Pulp #1. Henry Chamberlain on Superheroes!. Paul O'Brien on Gambit #15-17. Jason Wilkins on Grindhouse: Doors Open At Midnight #1. Paddy Johnston on The Daniel Clowes Reader. Colm Creamer on Artos #1-2. Richard Burton on Lady S -- A Mole In DC. Robert Kirby on Iron Bound. Sean T. Collins on Andy. Greg McElhatton on Green Arrow #24. Robert Kirby on Iron Bound. Hannah Means-Shannon on a bunch of different books. Taylor on Tiny Pencil #1. Mark Sinclair on Sunday Night Movies. Andrew Asberry on Batman: Black And White #2.

* here's what Zak Sally looked like in a recent issue of Filter.

* Frank Santoro looks at the content of a few magazines about comics from the mid-1990s: Indy, Feature and Destroy All Comics. These along with Crash and The Staros Report were a significant part of how I got introduced to individual cartoonists. Not that way, I knew about the cartoonists featured, I mean my actual introductions to cartoonists at cons or in Seattle. "Yeah, I don't like the Journal much; I'm more into ________." Good memories.

* Björn Wederhake und Thomas Kögel talk to Luke Pearson.

* finally, is George McManus the only cartoonist to get third billing in a feature film made from his work? Probably not, but I can't think of anyone else.
