Comix Talk for February 2, 2010

Octopus Pie: There Are No Stars in Brooklyn by Meredith Gran

Quick update this morning – The Escapist website is having a contest — more like an audition — to pick a regular webcomic for the The Escapist.  I haven't read the fine print so you should before you enter, but go check it out.  Btw, SLG Publishing is going to have a workshop for "aspiring comic creators" this March in San Jose, CA.

DEAD TREES:  Robot6 previews a lot of comics on book publishers' schedule for this year, includes several webcomics such as Goats, Octopus Pie and Penny Arcade.

INTERVIEWS:  Lots of folks linking to this interview with Bill Watterson of Calvin & Hobbes worship fame…  Be sure to check out Graphic Novel Reporter's interview with Kazu Kibuishi on his print collection of Copper.
