Wednesday! Links!

  • Ben Towle digs up James Sturm and Art Baxter's response to Scott McCloud's Understanding Comics. It originally ran The Comics Journal #211 and both Sturm and Baxter provide some additional context.
  • Plenty of Fantastic Four remembrances/commemorations earlier this week, but I'm going to point to Matt Kuhns' piece for two reasons. First, he tends to blog a little outside the mainstream comics blogosphere, so you may not see it otherwise. Second, he points out that we're just about as far away now from the FF's 25th anniversary as the 25th anniversary was from the debut. It's a great way to make many of us who were active comic fans back then feel really old. Thanks a lot, Matt! Oh, also, he makes some interesting comparisons on the technical progress of printing comics from 1961 to 1986 to 2011.
  • Jim Ottaviani links to an interview with his Feynman collaborator Leland Myrick.
