various comic-y things
1. I updated my list of Essential Ms. Marvel with some new scan posts. Next I want to concentrate on tracking down articles and interviews. Does anyone have a functional link to the essay "The Rape of Ms. Marvel"? I've read it in the past but recently, it seems like every link is dead.

2. Continuing from last post on the Iron Man movie, here are the links to the next three interviews in the CBR series.
I Am (Friends With) Iron Man - with Terrence Howard
I Am (Directing) Iron Man - with Jon Favreau
I Am (Producing) Iron Man - with Kevin Feige

3. Tori Amos' Comic Book Tattoo
Through her many real and apocryphal connections to “The Sandman” -- Amos wrote the introduction to “Death: The High Cost of Living,” references author Neil Gaiman and the Dream King in her music, and is generally thought to be the inspiration for Delirium -- Amos is known to comics fans as one of us. She aims to prove it with the help of editor Rantz Hoseley and Image Comics, who will this summer release “Comic Book Tattoo,” a nearly 500-page deluxe-packaged anthology featuring some of comics’ brightest talents including David Mack, Mike Dringenberg, Jonathan Hickman, Carla Speed McNeil, Laurenn McCubbin, Kelly Sue DeConnick, Ivan Brandon, Callum Watt, Neil Kleid, Christopher Mitten, Elzabeth Genco, Chris Arrant, and Daniel Heard -- all of whom turn in new work inspired by the music of Tori Amos.
It's like fanfic
I'm really excited about this project. The preview art (there's more of it in the link) looks lovely, and I just like the idea of it. I'm not a Tori fanatic but I think that her music has the potential to inspire some really fascinating and beautiful stories - her lyrics sometimes don't make much sense, which I think is an advantage here. Instead of just illustrating stories, they'll be creating stories.

tammylee linked to an article about artists, and what it takes to succeed in the business. As a non-artist I'm always interested to learn more about what goes on behind the scenes, the creative process and the business of art. I was particularly interested to learn about the job (and importance of) the inker.
