Random Comics News Story Round-Up

image* Bob Temuka on Sandman: Overture. Paul Krassner on National Lampoon.

* not comics: Oni reorganizes its entertainment division.

* here's a call for papers about 10-11 weeks out.

* not comics: it's always fun when traditional media comes to conclusions they should have reached ten years ago. It is always worth reminding, however, that the experience of processing ads will in part determine how advertising revenue is seized, if it's seized at all.

* doesn't need defending.

* Veronica Reuckert talks to Lynda Barry. Colton Redtfeldt profiles Clayton Crain. Brigid Alverson talks to Masashi Kishimoto.

* they don't let me run comics companies for a reason, but I do not get this use of the Captain Marvel property. Although typing that, I guess it would seem sensible to me if that were a plotline rather than what I suspect is "a new status quo." Maybe the problem is that they keep re-setting the status quo.

* Brian Heater talks to Paul Levitz in advance of his book about Will Eisner.

* John Kelly explores what it was like for cartoonists that worked with Hugh Hefner back when cartoonists more regularly worked with Hugh Hefner.

* finally, here's a New York Review Of Books piece on an exhibition of architecture in comics, currently on display in Oslo.
