comics: February 2008 Archives

Contra Costa County BART stations to get library book vending machines.

Every now and then somebody comes up with an idea like this that seems obvious in retrospect. Hopefully they will carry a wider selection than Danielle Steele and The Da Vinci Code. To whom do we talk to get comics in there?
Apparently Dark Horse is now doing Dark Horse Presents over at MySpace. Lori pointed me to this Joss Whedon/Fábio Moon story, which is actually extremely fucking funny. Very cool that DH are doing exclusive online content, but too bad it's on MySpace - there's no feed or any other mechanism for notifying me when new issues are posted. MySpace is a technology ghetto. Comic book publishers are always behind the curve on this stuff. They need to get with the times and hire people who have some idea of what's happening in the industry today, not two years ago.
