Things That May Only Interest Me

* The forthcoming Umberto Eco book, The Mysterious Flame of Queen Loana (a Tim Tyler's Luck reference?), about the recovery of memory through pop ephemera, supposedly contains a great deal of comic art. I can't find an artist, so perhaps it's Eco?

* Apparently, the actor Daniel Auteuil wrote a story called "Il a Fait l'Idiot à la Chapelle," which was illustrated the legendary cartoonist Jean-Jacques Sempe.

* Marisa Furtado's documentary on Will Eisner will be presented at this year's Comic-Con International, but I'm surprised and pleased to hear she's also done one on Jerry Robinson. I'm all for the latest re-discovery of Jerry Robinson.
