Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* Sean Gaffney on Witchcraft Works Vol. 1. Seth Abramson on Hawkeye. Jen Sorensen on The Conscience Of A Cartoonist. It's always a good day when Richard Pachter reviews a bunch of comics for the Miami Herald. Rob Kirby on The Hospital Suite. Matthew Garcia on Street Angel.

* I thought this was a strange place from which to make a strident declaration of that kind. It clearly wasn't welcoming to everyone.

* for some reason I totally missed this Colleen Doran post about her studio space. I like looking at studio spaces, and that's one of the nicer ones I've seen recently.

* Paul Di Filippo wrote in to remind me of this Atlantic article from Steven Heller on the use of the word ballon symbol as an icon for bridging cultures at the Palestinian Museum.

* here's one writer's short, idiosyncratic list of graphic novels for which comics laureate Dave Gibbons might agitate.

* Melanie Meadors talks to Jen Wang.

* I assume from the tone expressed here that a printer taking a pass on the focused-on-the-sex-tips compilation from Sex Criminals is a minor bump in the road rather than a major hassle. It's still sort of silly, of course. This used to be a greater concern through the 1990s -- a different era generally, and one where there weren't a lot of printers skilled at, or interested in, working with comics. Very frequently it was just someone on the line making an objection to what they were seeing passing in front of their eyes.

* difficult to imagine you'll see a post this week much more entertaining than this process piece from Blexbolex.

* finally, that nice person Diana Tamblyn sent along this fun link to a studio visit with Aislin.
