Considering Comics: June 2009
http://consideringcomics.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 25, 2009. After seeing it mentioned on The Beat. I wanted to spend the afternoon watching The Maxx. The animated adaptation of Sam Kieth's bizarre and magnificent hallucinatory, superhero comic from the 90s. But mtv.com inserts a commercial between every scene and it was driving me mad. Someday when I have more patience I'll sit down and enjoy. Instead, I got sucked into The Comics Curmudgeon. Less than a year ago, Murphy commented on a missed opportunity by DC. Go buy Detective Comics #854.

Considering Comics: Direct Market Continues to be Schroedinger's Cat of the Comics Industry
http://consideringcomics.blogspot.com/2009/08/direct-market-continues-to-be.html
Tuesday, August 4, 2009. Direct Market Continues to be Schroedinger's Cat of the Comics Industry. Lead blogger, Laura Hudson, just put up a great essay on the continuing demise of the direct market. Go give it a read now if you've yet to see it. Is the web and competitions like Zuda going to become the new proving ground? Or are risk-averse publishers going to hold on tight to established creative talent whose names sell books and lean more heavily on them for material? And/or the Facebook group.

Considering Comics: July 2009
http://consideringcomics.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 26, 2009. A few months back. I mentioned my excitement - nay, my child-like glee - at the web toy, Infinite Monkey Comics. Now shortened to simply Infinite Comic. But most especially: god. Below is a collection of my favorites. I'll note again that I didn't create these. I just typed the word "god" (and occasionally "omg" or "goddess) into the generator. I'm the curator of this exhibit. Http:/ www.infinitecomic.com. What happens when the meme eats its own tail and spits out beautiful art.

Considering Comics: The Invention of Hugo Cabret
http://consideringcomics.blogspot.com/2009/10/invention-of-hugo-cabret.html
Sunday, October 25, 2009. The Invention of Hugo Cabret. I recently had the pleasure of reading " The Invention of Hugo Cabret. I would also say that this book falls into several genres: historical fiction, mystery, and young adult novel. The upside of all this mish-mash is an excellent way to spend an hour or two, immersed in hand-drawn illustrations and compelled by several competing intrigues found in the plot. Even so, if you have the chance, this is a fun read. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Considering Comics: Humans, get a freaking grip on yourselves
http://consideringcomics.blogspot.com/2009/08/humans-get-freaking-grip-on-yourselves.html
Monday, August 31, 2009. Humans, get a freaking grip on yourselves. So I got this phone call from Joe Quesada and it was just the sound of him rubbing himself with money and now I am confused. There are companies that Disney doesn't own? If aren't a comic fanling and weren't sitting next to one at breakfast this morning, you might have missed the announcement that Disney will be purchasing Marvel comics. If you're a glutton for punishment or camp, click on The Hulk. Get a freaking grip. But Chris, Disney...
