Wednesday Runaround – Who Created Batman Anyway?
ThirtiesWatch: Did Frank Foster create Batman in 1932? Possibly not, but one grandson-in-law seems convinced that he might have done. Although this push does seem to come conveniently after Jerry Robinson passed away…
ShirtWatch: The winner of the WeLoveFine T-shirt competition is… Antony! Though I have to say I rather liked Russell's…
MiddleEastWatch: TimeOut Dubai reports on the Middle East Comic Con, with Marvel, IDW, Archaia and Top Cow in attendance.
GibbonsWatch: Dave Gibbons talks Secret Service… and the legacy of Watchmen.
If Alan and I had done another major project together after that, the thing we had talked about was doing something bright and dreamlike, a Captain Marvel kind of thing that was kind of mythic and close to a fairy tale in a way. Alan did go on to do that with "Supreme" and other things. It was never really our idea with "Watchmen" to say, "Here is how superhero comics ought to be." It was just, "Here's a possible way to tell this story that you haven't seen before."
C2E2Watch: Bleeding Cool's Keep Your Pants On column gets its own panel at C2E2.
GameWatch: David Marquez talks Ultimate Spider-Man and Fantastic Four Season One to Kotaku
"So, as a case in point, I patterned Reed Richards directly off Don Draper – a clean cut 1960s-era professional man, and Sue Storm was very heavily influenced by January Jones' Betty. Johnny Storm drew pretty heavily on James Dean (with a faux hawk, anyway). My Ben Grimm looked a heck of a lot like the dad from Wonder Years, mixed with a kind of grown-up Little Rascals fashion sense."
BoneWatch: Image publisher Eric Stephenson talks New Comics.
"Over the last 20 years or so, the vast majority of the lasting new contributions to comics have not been superhero comics."
CreditWatch: DC Comics adds credits to those National Comics issues. And no, no Gail Simone on Rose And Thorn. But the Cla$$War team of Rob Williams and Trevor Hairsine has Madame X.
Cartoonist Darwyn Cooke Talks 'Watchmen' Revival | Culture News | Rolling Stone
With Silk Spectre it's a completely different premise. Minutemen is a story that spans – if you take it all into account – probably from 1910 all the way up to 1962, 1963. It's a huge story, featuring a huge cast. With Silk Spectre, we are doing pretty much the opposite. We are really zeroing in on a couple months in Laurie's life, at a turning point. She is 16, and her mother, the original Silk Spectre, is pushing her towards the Silk Spectre persona.

Norton's Liveright to Publish Jules Feiffer Graphic Novel
Jules Feiffer, Pulitzer-Prize winning cartoonist best known for his long running Village Voice comics strip, screenwriter, playwright, acclaimed adult and children's author, and a pioneering witness to the birth of the American comic book industry, will publish Kill My Mother, his first original graphic novel, in Fall 2013 with the Liveright publishing division of W. W. Norton.
In 1961, I was the luckiest damn kid on my block — or maybe any block. My father worked at home. Everyone else's dad had to drive into Queens or Brooklyn or take the train into Manhattan. And it was not some boring, old desk job; my father was Jack Kirby, the King of Comics, and — though his humble personality would have him cringing to hear this — he is regarded as the greatest comic book artist and creator – ever. (Sorry, Dad).
