(Apologies right up front for using the term “blogosphere.”)
There’s nothing more “new journalism” or “Web 2.0″ than a blog post about a blog, so here’s one: Dark Horse Comics now has an official company blog, posting official news from the publisher, à la DC’s The Source. The blog actually started a month ago, somewhat quietly, but it looks like they’re now looking to really give it a push. A recently distributed announcement from the publisher says that the blog will “slowly replace” their traditional e-mail press release list.
Highlights thus far on the blog, sporadically updated at this point, include an interview with Patton Oswalt about his recently released Serenity: Float Out one-shot, comments on the upcoming Doctor Solar #1 series and a personal tribute to Usagi Yojimbo by Dark Horse production artist Ryan Hill.
Dark Horse made news here on Newsarama earlier today, in Chris Arrant’s interview with editor Scott Allie on Dark Horse Presents leaving MySpace, and what the future holds for the enduring anthology title.
