	The Comics Journal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Comics Journal is an American magazine of news and criticism pertaining to comic books and strips.
		The magazine promotes the view that comics are a fine art deserving of broader cultural respect and higher critical standards.
		The list was much-criticized on a number of fronts, from the small number of jurors, to its decision to exclude non-English-speaking work, to a certain self-promoting bias (its own Hernandez Bros. filled 5 of the top 31 slots), to what others cited as egregious omissions (notably MAD Magazine and Cerebus).

	The Comics Journal: Essays
		The comics that today represent the most mature use of the form are not derived from those comics that were discovered in the past by children who are rediscovering them today as adults.
		Underground comics artists had greater freedom than any comics artists preceding them; at their best this freedom was combined with values that disdained the standards of mass culture and the synthetic, arbitrarily-dictated tradition of mainstream comics.
		One, the number of comics shops had grown to such an extent that Marvel and DC felt compelled to pay attention to the fan cult who previously represented an insignificant percentage of their readership and was consequently ignored.

	Don Markstein's Toonopedia: DC Comics
		And its Action Comics was the first to feature a superhero — Superman, who quickly became the first hit character to emerge from the fledgling comic book medium, and the first character to star in his own regularly-published comic book.
		Unlike most comics publishers, however, DC never put out the sort of gruesome horror and crime comics that brought on the protest that led to the formation of the Comics Code Authority.
		DC Comics may or may not be the "Comics Publisher of the Century" — but considering its size, its staying power and its corporate connections, it's certainly one of the century's biggest successes in comics.

		When CBG was a weekly (newspaper) it was fairly accurate in it's reporting on the newest prices for comics, changes in the writer/artist teams, and the direction that the publishers were going for the coming year.
		The comic book and graphic novels reviewed each month are more than just Marvel and DC books, too, which is nice.
		When Comics Buyers Guide was a weekly tabloid, it appealed mainly to the hardcore comic book collector.

	Faraway Press - Magazines - Comics Buyers Guide - 2005 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		I contributed a good deal to the photo guide for reprints for Marvel's early Star Wars comics; it also put us in touch with a number of people who were very helpful in refining that list and helping us on my Marvel Whitman piece for #1609.
		As someone who's probably written more about slabbing in CBG than anyone, I took the opportunity in Longbox Manifesto to suggest how skeptical I was in the beginning that it would amount to anything -- and explained how we came to realize the truth in time to have the magazine cover it properly.

		People in the comics industry are just too high strung."

	Peanuts: A Comic Book History
		Schulz's comic strip "Li'l Folks" was finally accepted by United Features Syndicate, re-christened "Peanuts" and debuted in seven newspapers on October 2, 1950, little did he realize that from such humble beginnings would mushroom worldwide popularity and prominence over the next 50 years.
		Much has been written about this strip: Precocious children interacting in a world where adults are never seen, the underlying level of pathos of its main hero Charlie Brown, and most phenomenally, the growth from a minor role to eventual stardom by his dog Snoopy.
		The earliest comic book appearances of "Peanuts" have a somewhat cloudy chronology and there has long been some question to its origins as I've found many factual data errors and omissions in the annual Overstreet Price Guide.

	: RevolutionSF - “.can’t see the forest #43” : Review
		A slight change this month; instead of reviewing comic books, I’ll be taking a look at a selection of magazines that cover the various aspects of the comic book hobby and industry.
		At one time CBG was the essential “trade newspaper” for the comics industry, but this role has been effectively taken over by the numerous comics news sites on the Web, with Newsarama, The Pulse, and Comics Continuum being the most prominent.
		The one big plus for the regular appearance of CBG is the lively letters column, sadly now missing from most comics themselves.

		In the late 1970’s and 1980’s girls romance comics began to include stories where male/female romances were replaced with a sort of idealized, platonic male/male friendship, and then later a male/male romance.
		There are plenty of domestic comics porn producers with a Japanese flare out there, unburdened by foreign censorship laws and only bound by the hostility of trying to publish gay porn comics in a market largely comprised of homophobic superhero fans trying very hard not to notice how gay Batman and Robin really are.
		Alias Comics is now running completely on generated income, a feat most of the failed comic publishers to whom Alias has so often been compared have never managed to accomplish.

		The blurb on the back would lead you to believe that this is some sort of comprehensive treatment of comic artists with lines like: "Evolving since 1934.." But, it's not even close.
		In my eyes, this book should be entitled "Comic Artists of 1993", as anyone who was inactive or dead in that year was excluded.If you're looking for a (rather dated) guide to current artists, this is probably helpful (if they haven't changed addresses in 9 years), but the name is a complete misnomer.
		Even though I got this book for free (as a give away) (which tells you it's true value), it isn't even worth the shelf space.
