Other TCAF News!
The Beat has been hosting a fun daily podcast at TCAF: Day 1, Day 2, Day 3. They also did a nice liveblog of the Doug Wright Awards. Congrats to all the winners!
And some non-TCAF-related stuff:
- Charles Pullman-Moore published an important piece on Marvel’s cancellation of Black Panther & The Crew over on i09.
- There’s a lot of chatter about that whole Nightwing: New World Order thing, and this piece by James Whitbrook over on i09 pretty much sums up my feelings.
- Remember when we talked about why it was such a bad idea for the New York Times Graphic Novels Best Sellers list to go away? Heidi at The Beat explores potential consequences based on a new report.
- May is Mental Health Awareness Month and over at BookRiot, Jessica Plummer has written a brief list of recommendations on comics dealing with mental health, including the comic that was critical for my recovery, Allie Brosh’s Hyperbole and a Half.
- Oh, and check out this interview with C. Spike Trotman over at Loser City!

Also, if you missed Tom Holland and Zendaya’s Lip Sync Battle at the MTV Movie Awards, allow me to help you out. The video below is the full version, as well as the post-performance conversation and a wonderful Spidey-themed kiss between Chrissy Tiegen and hubby John Legend.
