The Rundown: Sina Grace Talks Fashion in “Burn the Orphanage”, “Rocket Raccoon” Sells 300K, and more

Welcome back to The Rundown, our daily breakdown on comic news stories we missed from the previous day. Have a link to share? Email our team at either david@multiversitycomics.com or brian@multiversitycomics.com.

– Sina Grace talks the costumes guest artists like Fiona Staples and Ming Doyle designed for his characters in “Burn the Orphanage: Reign of Terror” over at Comics Should Be Good, and it’s a cool piece that shows how much thought and feeling Grace puts into his work. Really cool stuff.

– Could Rocket Raccoon #1 move over 300,000 units? That’s what Bleeding Cool will have you believe, although I have to admit, that seems fairly far fetched to me. Hopefully it’s legit though, as that speaks to the power of Skottie Young and one foul mouthed raccoon.

– Could I interest you in a sci-fi short film by Paul Pope?

– Comics Alliance covers the mess left behind by Graphicly, as in the wake of them closing up their shop, a number of comic creators were never paid for their books selling through their platform.

– Oni Press hired Tim Weisch as their new VP of Business Development, after five years working in foreign licensing for Dark Horse Comics. Congrats, Tim!
