Random Comics News Story Round-Up
* I had fun reading comics-savvy parent Noah Berlatsky's very funny dissection of a comic ostensibly for little kids.
* this post from Craig Thompson about drawing on the plane leads one to this site and a Little Nemo tribute book I hadn't heard of before. Or I'd forgotten. Does anyone know if it's any good?
* the critic Domingos Isabelinho may be tough on some of the comics you like and think are good, but he's always a thrill to read on the comics he likes and thinks are good. Here he is on the great Yoshiharu Tsuge.
* not comics: one of the more interesting thing about the newspaper death spiral is that there's been no easy consensus on exactly what it is blogs do, let alone how to make use of them. A recently-announced deal seems to portray one prominent blog as an elite content generator. However, this article seems to see blogs as avenues for access that largely stand on the content generated by traditional media sources. I actually see them as evolving creatures within their various contexts, which is one of the reasons the relative lack of original news content generation in blog covering comics never bothered me: I figure it comes with time.
