Random Comics News Story Round-Up
* this long post from Jessica Abel about moving with her family to France would be my choice for settle-in/coffee break reading of the day.
* Shannon Smith reviews a bunch of Batman comics from the 1990s. I sat next to a guy on the airplane San Diego to Vegas last summer reading a bunch of those; they're really bizarre-looking, just fundamentally weird to see on the page. Johanna Draper Carlson on 20th Century Boys Vols. 21-22. One of the Mindless Ones and a whole lot of commenters on Action Comics #9.
* not comics: did you know that longtime comics industry veteran turned more general arts writer (with a focus on Houston) plus whatever day job he has (I think he has a day job) is putting on his own arts fair? That will be pretty neat, I bet.
