Friday Fun Linkblogging
April 30th, 2010 Posted by david brothersThe Boondocks returns on Sunday 🙂 I don’t have cable, so I can’t watch it live, but please believe I’m excited. On to the links!
–Paul DeBenedetto and Marc-Oliver Frisch take me to task for my Death to Canon post the other day. They raise some good points. I do want to say, as a meager defense, that I don’t hate the idea of the narrative, I just hate that perfectly good tales don’t get read because they aren’t important. That’s silly to me. I think we should treat all stories with the same level of importance. That was the point of the Spider-Man Noir vs Amazing Spider-Man comparison. I should have expressed that better. You should definitely read their posts, though. They say a lot of good things.
–Tucker Stone talks about comics, ads, and audiences.
–Nina Stone serves up a good review of American Vampire, a series I have been enjoying much, much more than I expected to. I’m hoping Vertigo’s got another hit on its hands, because I want to see this one continue. That’s a good review there, you can see exactly what she likes about it.
-Kate Dacey’s Manga Critic turned one! Kate’s great.
-Look at this lady talking like an idiot in public! Let Obama define himself, stay up out of his business.
-Music video!
Lupe Fiasco – I’m Beaming
–Pac Div’s new mixtape is heat rocks. It’s free music. Go on ahead and get that.
