Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* Daryl Cagle presents
the first round of death of Gadhafi editorial cartoons.

* I am greatly enjoying
this week's run of various Sergio Aragones pages and panels at Bully's blog. You usually don't see his comic book work put into the spotlight this way, but I'm not certain way. There's a lot of it, and it's all pretty fun.
* Don MacPherson on
MAD #511. John Kane on
some Jonah Hex comics. J. Caleb Mozzocco on
some comic-book comics. Sharayah Read on
Jennifer Blood #1. Hayley Campbell on
The Hidden. Todd Klein on
Boilerplate and
Kirby Genesis #0-1. Michael Buntag on
Action Comics #2.
* save your cash for next week's
Tony Millionaire Big Art Sale, by which I mean sale of big art.
* hey, here's some great news I either missed or forgot about:
D+Q is working with Tom Gauld. The plan I submitted to Congress on how to save the postal service involves Gauld making every person in America three packets of his postcards, but barring that becoming law I guess a D+Q book is cool, too.
*
Jeffrey Lewis draws ROM.
* I have no idea what this is and no idea what half of the words in the title mean,
but it's free so I'm downloading it.
* this summer was such that I didn't notice the writer James Vance
was back on-line and blogging semi-regularly. I always enjoy reading his posts, and am always happy to see an established comics writer blogging. (And thank you, James.)
* Martin Wisse
shares some comics numbers from back in the era when comic books sold really, really well, and has some questions about Dr. Wertham's influence on sales.
* Josh Kopin talks to
Gabriel Hardman.
* I agree with the sentiment expressed
here that it's hard to beat Jack Kirby and Joe Sinnott when it comes to satisfy American superhero art.
* finally, the Internet makes me happy by foisting up a few Evan Dorkin drawings of the
Spy Vs. Spy spies being murdered:
