Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* whoops I forgot to do the round-up today. You opened up your bag and I gave you a rock. Sorry about that.

* everybody looks handsome when Chris Diaz takes their photo. (That's good ol' Richie T.)

* by request extra: that pal to comics Rob Clough has started up a Patreon. Rob has been intermittently asking for direct donations, and this seems like a better option. A lot of first-reviews of artists are done by Clough and if you've benefited by that focus you might donate.

* I'm guessing this profile I was sent is a right-wing site's take on the on-line criticism that Frank Cho has received for cheesecake elements in his art and his defense of same. I fail to see how this is an article except in some hell a demon is out there creating. I've always liked Frank; he seems nice enough, and he was always cordial to comics press even when he was being kicked in the nuts. I don't care for a lot of his art, but I don't care for a lot of art. If other people care less for it and want to say so out loud, I'm not sure why that's a story. "People react to art" is what we should be shooting for.

* finally, nice company for Tim Kreider. That's a good book, though, don't get me wrong.
