It’s been pretty quiet in the last 24 hours as far as news.  There were a bunch of conventions this weekend so, I’m adding a generic convention section whenever there’s news.  Here’s the news and reviews from the last 24 hours.

Around the Blogs:

Comic Book Resources – ZIP Comics and Top Shelf Productions Partner to Publish Harvey Pekar’s “Cleveland” – Having been born in Cleveland, you better believe this is on my read list.

Bleeding Cool – Nick Spencer And Emma Rios To Launch New Cloak And Dagger Series – It’ll be interesting to see where this series goes after their recent depictions.  Nick Spencer is a solid writer, so here’s hoping.

ICv2 – ‘Social Network’ Actor is Ra’s Al Ghul – This is reportedly a flashback scene.  It’ll be interesting to see how it fits into the main narrative.
