Congratulations to Robin McConnell and friends, and here's to 4 more years, and many more!

He shot and edited a short doc of the event around 4pm to 5pm of the last day. Item: A good large flickr photo set cataloging zine prints buttons and art books predominantly in a minimalist & cute style. The rare blue Mermacorn is the invention of probably this years youngest exhibitor, Jasper! Posted by Montreal designer Janice Wong.Item: And rounding out the visual record of Expozine 2009 so far is an excellent set of 111 photos by Montreal Photographer Camille McOuat. The last one of Billy is perfect. Item: Vancouver cartoonist Doug Fraser has designed an Absolut Vodka bottle just in time for the Olympics. Item: Webcomics writer Ryan Sohmer in Montreal. As well, Sohmer and his "Least I Can Do" collaborator Lar DeSouza have announced a webcomics scholarship at the Vermont Center for Cartoon Studies. Item: Another profile of Jesse Jacobs!

Item: Canadian comics historian, blogger, humourist, erstwhile Sequential contributor, and scriptwriter on the perils of maintaining 4 blogs while writing animation scripts for a living. Item: The DC/Warner vs Disney/Marvel war is really heating up. Alarmed at the massive build-up of Canadian superheroes by Marvel, and with only one of their own DC plans to fire back by adding a Canadian to the Outsiders, previously a 1980s superhero team based in Batman's Gotham City. (Thanks to reader Maddy B for the tip!) Item: Jeet Heer on Marx/Barks and Tomine/Oliveros.

A new Journalistic graphic novel about the dirty business of global resource extraction in the 21st century. Edited by Frederic Dubois, Marc Tessier & David Widgington. Featuring comix art by Joe Ollmann, Phil Angers, Ruth Tait & Stanley Wany. Reportage by Dawn Paley, Petr Cizek, Sophie Toupin & Tamara Herman. And additional illustration by Alain Reno, Jeff Lemire & Carlos Santos. Since 2000, most energy and mineral prices have been skyrocketing. Junior mining prospectors and unscrupulous transnational corporations rush into new territories to suck what's hot out of the earth's lucrative veins. In today's gas, oil and mining industries, the pace of exploration, extraction, transformation and delivery of the world's resources is mind boggling. The German magazine Der Spiegel speaks of a Third World War for the world's resources. It is more like a blitzkrieg.EXTRACTION! looks into the exploration, exploitation and extraction of oil, uranium, bauxite and gold, from a common-good social justice perfective.
