MarkAndrew just complained to me a little bit earlier that the Super Duper Links pages was neither Super nor Duper, as it was stalled at E. That is corrected. It now has all the blog links that we had up when we lost the blogroll a couple of months ago. So check the Super Duper Links page out here.
In the meantime, I am going to begin adding additional comic sites, so keep mentioning ones that I do not have up there!

I am shocked and offended that I’m not on the list.
Well, not shocked or offended. Just a little sad.

That was speedy. I only complained ’bout an hour before this was posted. Now we got the (only?) annotated links page on the whole blogsphere. Super!
Also: Is Jog really not linked, or am I just missing him?

Jog was not on there for a silly reason! I thought I had him in my “blogs I couldn’t help but list separately,” when I didn’t. So he is now in that section.

That IS strange, Ryan. As I am pretty sure I had you on the old blogroll. I mean, obviously you’ll be on the NEW one, but I thought I had you on the old one, too.
Very weird.

I hear all the kids are talking about this blog at the moment: http://newsarama-rama.blogspot.com/
And by “kids” I mean me and my four or five regular readers.

Thanks a lot, Matthew! I thought Near Mint Heroes was on an extended hiatus! I took it OFF the blogroll! I am a dummy!

Brian, do you still have the links we suggested last time you asked? If bot, I’ll shamelessly mention again my own blog Gad, Sir! Comics! - the usual mix of reviews, historical stuff and general commentary, covering both US and UK comics.
I don’t know if you want to cover UK comics, but if you do, these should be on the list:
Down the Tubes http://www.downthetubes.net - John Freeman’s news site
Bear Alley bearalley.blogspot.com - comics historian Steve Holland
Blimey! It’s Another Blogs About Comics lewstringer.blogspot.com - comics artist Lew Stringer
Forbidden Planet International Blog http://www.forbiddenplanet.co.uk/blog/ - covers all sorts of pop media, and not just UK.
I’ve noticed a few US based blogs that are on my blogroll but not yours, but I’m out of time. I’ll post again later.

Hey Cronin– which email address do you prefer these days? AOL or CBR?
Brian Cronin
June 26, 2007 at 11:46 pm
AOL, generally, because I don’t check the CBR one during the weekend.
I got your e-mail, by the by!
Brian Cronin
June 26, 2007 at 11:47 pm
And yeah, Steve, I still have all the earlier recommendations.
It’s strictly a matter of me sitting down and entering the data for everything. I am too lazy.

Atop the Fourth Wall is still alive, surprisingly enough.

And some more (sorry about the multiple posts, but for some reason, if I include too many links in a post, it doesn’t seem to get through. Spam filter, maybe?)

There’s more…
Look at my sidebar, I’ve been adding little by littel all the comic blogs I find that are still being updated. I found some I need to add in this comments section but there are quite a few that weren’t mentioned.
