News & Views for Thursday, Somewhere in April

So um... taxes? They suck. Let's throw rocks at 'em.
HEADLINES
- CORRECTION: LA-based creators Dave Kellett and Kris Straub plan to march over to the gallery where art by alleged copycat Todd Goldman is on exhibit with a copy of Dave Kelly's original comic.
So long as someone will mail them a copy of the Keenspot FCBD book that it appeared in. Kellett's address and more details over at COPYCAT 2007 headquarters, FLEEN.UPDATE: They have received the comic book.
- Journalista! has a whole mess of links on the passing of Johnny Hart (scroll down to "comic strips").
INTERVIEWS
- The Daily Crosshatch has an interview with creator Raina Telgemeier.
- For his podcast, T Campbell interviews Eric Burns and Wednesday White (mp3 link) and they talk about Websnark, blogging & podcasting. As always, Eric is simultaneously humble and well not-humble (it's charming though), Wednesday drops geek-cred terms (did I hear CMS in there? That's content-management-system) and for some odd reason sounds like she's sitting five feet behind Eric in the interview. Surprisingly, T Campbell asks no questions about actual webcomic content though...
REVIEWS
- Sequential Tart reviews three webcomics this month: El Goonish Shive; Questionable Content; and Tittivillus.
DEAD TREES
- Webcomics-In-Print reports that a convention-only book of After Strife is out featuring strips not yet available on the web.
- MangaBlog reviews Divalicious (written by T Cambpell and art'd by Amy Mebberson).
- Newsarama has a HUGE preview of Flight 4.

- Eric Burns
- Josh Lesnick

Sorry if it sounded too Dirty Harry-ish in the post.
Make sure Straub is wearing his sunglasses when you go though :)

Dave/Kris: I have a copy of the 2004 Keenspot FCBD book and live about 2 blocks from him. You guys up for a little road trip? We could even make Quickcast out of it. ;)
