Carnival of souls

* I don’t care how much Joe Lieberman makes America his Snooki in the Jersey Shore reenactment that is his horrid, horrid life–any day with new webcomics by Kevin Huizenga, Hans Rickheit, and Anders Nilsen is a pretty good day.

* Matt Fraction and John Romita Jr. on Thor sounds pretty great.

* Jog does another one of those picaresque con reports/here are some other books he bought at or near or while thinking about the con reports/here’s a conversation he had with Tucker Stone reports he specializes in, this one loosely centered around the Brooklyn Comics and Graphics Festival.

* Wow, the writer’s bible for Batman: The Animated Series. I think virtually every week I worked at Wizard, when we’d go out to lunch at the Palisades Mall, I’d go into Best Buy and just stand there and covet the DVD box sets for that show. At one point I think I bought them but returned them the next day because I realized I wouldn’t get a lot of re-watching out of them. But for a long time, that was my favorite ongoing interaction with my favorite superhero.

* Matt Maxwell holds grudges against video-game enemies in World of Warcraft. I like that about him.

* Today on Robot 6: Wizard might be relaunching its website, The Comics Journal maybe needs to revamp its relaunch, San Diego tickets go on sale tomorrow, here’s a goofy Alan Moore photoshop, and here are some cool TV posters.

* Seriously, the new TCJ.com is pretty bad. Someone tell Gary Groth he can’t win just by showing up anymore.

    Goddamn right I hold a grudge. Those things were vicious.

    And revenge is a dish best served cold. At 80th level.

    Sean, don’t you get it?

    It’s not the artist who’s supposed to suffer for his art these days.

    It’s the READER.
