News Briefs for February 6, 2008

A run down of items of note.

Scott Hilburn, creator of The Argyle Sweater that is launching with Universal Press in April, has written a blog post discussing how his feature made into syndication.

Brooke McEldowney, creator of Pibgorn and 9 Chickweed Lane is recovering from having his gallbladder removed. Notes he: “The surgery, I’m afraid, wasn’t really all that interesting. I slept through the most dramatic part. All I retain is a conviction that I dueled several musketeers bearing very antiseptic épées – and I have the wounds to prove it.”

The Sydney Morning Herald interviews John Cullen Murphy current writer and illustrator for Prince Valiant.
