Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* congratulations to Glenn Head and his new bride.

image* Sam Thielman talks to Dash Shaw.

* Rick Kogan on My Favorite Thing Is Monsters. Philippe Leblanc on Frontier #13.

* that's a lovely picture by Loustal. Ditto this image by Jim Woodring.

* Chris Pitzer finds some old art of the "Oh, yeah, that's a thing people used to do" variety.

* Tim Gagne sent along this article summarizing the praise of and objections concerning the use of Wonder Woman by the UN. I think my Mom had it right in that it's the honorary ambassador thing that tastes the most wrong, not the use of the character to promote women around the world. All of the fights in the area of women's rights are tough enough without a whole meta-argument about what's real and what isn't and how that character would relate to the real world if they were a real person.

* finally, I enjoyed this article with a lot of commentary by Frederick L. Aldama.
