Random Comics News Story Round-Up

* Handsome Dick Manitoba picks his favorite New Yorker, living or dead -- and it's comics-related.

image* reader Randall Kirby thought this Clay Bennett piece a pretty good cartoon about Ferguson. I've been asking the readers to send in halfway decent to outright good cartoons on the whole, awful circumstance that's developed there because of how few I was seeing when I first started looking.

* not comics: Slate regulars debate whether or not they should kill their comments sections. I killed mine before I started the site, having learned a lot of lessons in the days of the Comics Journal message board. I've given up a ton of traffic that way, and probably some useful content generated by readers, but it suits me. I'm not even saying it's the right thing to do for everyone; at this point, I just don't have any connection to this discussion.

* a comics sale similar to one I need to have soon.

* Rob Clough continues with his CCS-related profiles: Max Mose And Dakota McFadzean; Romey Bensen.

* Bob Temuka on The Dharma Punks. Paul O'Brien on Wolverine And The X-Men Vol. 2. John Kane on a bunch of different comics.

* finally, Sean Kleefeld is surprised by the range of cartoons he finds in a random sampling, even though they sort of also all overlap when looked at in another way.
