Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* if you are one of the people whose work could benefit from a Swann Foundation fellowship, you really need to know about the Swann Foundation fellowship application process.

image* our pal Dan Nadel calls attention to this wonderfully-illustrated article on the brushwork of Leonard Starr. Abhay Khosla wrote in to suggest the above link and a related link of Joe Jusko putting up for sale a Sunday Mary Perkins and its color guide. Thanks, Abhay.

* remember what I said yesterday about the Chicago Tribune adding a sport cartoon to its pages? They've also added a comic to their Chicago Now blog. I learn new stuff every day.

* here are subscription details on the new Comics Journal.

* I'm not sure I even know what to say about the way that Comic-Con International is selling its early tickets. It makes sense -- it's an investment in time and money that is a lot like a major family vacation -- or is a major family vacation -- but it's really strange to those of us who can remember a time not far out of mind where you could decide to go two weeks out and find a hotel room downtown 20 minutes later.

* this may be my favorite visual of the last 24 hours.

* finally, the crossover to end all crossovers?
