It looks like Spring has sprung here in the Metro Detroit area and it couldn’t of come at a better time! Spring is a time of renewal, to feel alive again, to grow and in my case get one hell of a head cold as the chilly days turns into warm days. The slight flu I received over this past weekend gave way to a real nasty cough and moved right on down to my lungs and throat. As I have gotten better the last of the virus has affected my voice – a case of laryngitis I guess. Anyway I sound terrible. I feel fine now, but I want to save you the agony of listening to me sound like Chiklis as The Thing.

In the meantime you can here what I sounded like just before I went south as I had my monthly conversation with John Mayo on his Comic Book Page podcast when John and I went over the January 2010 Sales Figures.
Here are some other great links from this past week.

  • Dark Horse Comics Solicitations For June 2010. Hardcover Archives include: Eerie Volume 5 (reprinting Eerie #23-27), Flash Gordon Comic Book Volume 1 (reprinting seven complete comics originally published from 1947 through 1953), Mighty Samson Volume 1 (reprinting the first seven comic books from the original 1960s Mighty Samson series).
  • Friend of the CCL, Timothy Callahan, Staff Writer CBR, in his latest When Words Collide column takes a look at 15 Upcoming Collections That Matter. Yes – Steve Ditko does matter! And thanks for the mention, Tim!
  • Kevin Melrose, CBR’s Robot 6, reports that Apple’s iBookstore designates Comics & Graphic Novels as top-tier category. On a related note, I plan on getting an iPad not only for me to read digital comics, but also as a second computer/media player for the family. I’ll report back from time to time and let you know how it goes.
  • Heidi MacDonald, The Beat, has the lowdown on the 2010 Doug Wright Award nominees
  • Of the many, many, many blogs I subscribe to via RSS, I really like Comics Bronze Age by Andrew Wahl. Andrew has just released the 2010 Print Edition of Comics Bronze Age. Please support his site by donating $1.00. I did!
