Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* it makes sense that fans on the right-leaning side of the political spectrum would have complaints about some post-Ferguson decision statements made by various comics pros. As far as I know, none of these came close to cross the lines into abuse, forceful engagement or punishingly strident statements of the kind that got a former Comic-Con volunteer in trouble.

image* Henry Chamberlain on Cats In Service. Jen Vaughn on Recidivist Vol. 4. Daniel McCloskey on You Can Did It. Ian Scheffler on Showa: 1944-1953.

* this cover always makes me laugh. Thirty years ago! Thirty years before that, Elvis hadn't come along yet.

* Andrew Yates talks to Leslie Stein. Chris Sims and Jordan D. White talk to Katie Skelly. Samuel Ferri talks to John Ficarra.

* Kieron Gillen writes something that a bunch of folks were thinking re: Warren Ellis and Moon Knight, I'm sure.

* congratulations to Mariko Tamaki and Jillian Tamaki on This One Summer making the Globe And Mail best books list. Congratulations to Neil Gaiman and Lorenzo Mattotti on their Hansel and Gretel making a Kirkus Children's Books list.

* not comics: no idea there was a Patrick McDonnell play. I bet his comics would translate pretty well to stage with a skillful director involved.

* finally: the first Maakies.
