Because if we're going to try and stop the misuse of our favorite comics and their protagonists by the companies that write and publish them, we've got to see what both the printed and online comics news is doing wrong. This blog focuses on both the good and the bad, the newspaper media and the online websites. Unabashedly. Unapologetically. Scanning the media for what's being done right and what's being done wrong.

Welcome to the May 7, 2009 edition of the comic book carnival. Here's what we have for this month.
Sudipto Sarkar presents Inkscape: Draw freely posted at Open Source: The future, saying, "This article is about an Open Source and free cartoon drawing program, which makes it easier to draw cartoons without putting in a lot of effort. Best of all, it is free of cost!"
Matt Willard presents Exciting Action-Packed Fun Time Game!!! | Giant Robot Invasion! posted at Giant Robot Invasion!, saying, "These days, a lot of manga is based on colorful re-interpertations of children's toys. Some have transformed into huge franchises, such as Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon. How does this affect the classic games of our youth, and what can we sell out next to make even more money? I offer a few ideas for what we can bastardize next."
That concludes this edition. Submit your blog article to the next edition of the comic book carnival using our carnival submission form. Past posts and future hosts can be found on our blog carnival index page.
