March 2010 Archives
Updates here continue to be infrequent and not-really-news-filled. That will change, for the better, sooner or later. But here’s my monthly what-I’ve-been-up-to check-in:
A New York Times Book Review piece on a handful of vintage-comic-strip reprint books
A bunch of columns and features at Techland, including pieces on Jason Shiga’s Meanwhile, on Punisher Max and Cry for Justice, on Siege and Krazy Kat, and on music in comics
A couple of features on eMusic: on the Chills’ Submarine Bells and on a bunch of Sub Pop albums
A few reviews at Pitchfork: the Nigeria Afrobeat Special compilation and the Kleenex/LiLiPUT live album
A quick review of Jules Feiffer’s memoir Backing Into Forward over at the Barnes & Noble Review
A pair of brief appreciations for Hilobrow: Lady Gaga and Rick Rubin’s Queen remixes
My first post at the NAJP’s blog ARTicles, on Luca Turin and Tania Sanchez’s outstanding Perfumes: The A-Z Guide
So: a reasonably productive month word-count-wise. Not as productive in other ways, maybe, but that’s what April will be for, right?
