Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* the cartoonist Rutu Modan's New York Times serial, The Murder of the Terminal Patient, wrapped up yesterday. On the whole, I've enjoyed reading all of the comics they've put up, and this was no exception.

* not comics 01: three days later, same costume, different picture, still adorable.

* not comics 02: I really like this costume.

* if I were doing the whole Halloween link thing over again, I'd include this perennial by Fred Hembeck.

* the writer Brian Doherty pens a short review of Bob Levin's excellent Most Outrageous.

* a couple of newspapers readers inform one of Gary McCoy's clients why "drinking the Kool-Aid" probably isn't an expression you should use when describing the actions of an African-American politician.

* the forthcoming Beasts 2 previewed.

* the cartoonist, AAEC Prez and syndication talent scout Ted Rall rips the New York Times a new one for assigning a writer who knows little about comics to a comics review, and then allowing him to make semi-ridiculous or otherwise strained statements from that context-light vantage point.

* finally, am I the only person in the world not a hardcore conservative pundit, sociopath, or hardcore conservative pundit sociopath that thinks Senator McCain wins tomorrow in pretty solid fashion? No matter what the polls say, I can't see Virginia, Pennsylvania, Florida, Ohio, Colorado, Indiana or New Mexico going for Senator Obama.
