Despite appearances, Comicsnob is not my website.
That’s the crux of the matter, and really, the only reason for the change to be announced:
##
It may go down as one of the most successful “guest blogger” gigs in the (admittedly short) history of the blogosphere — Comicsnob.com was founded in October of 2006 by my good friend […]

(pay no attention to the man behind the curtain)
(and the Big Reveal comes much, much later)
(and once again: If it’s really worth reading you all know I like to bump comments to the main page)
So for those of you who read blog comments — a small, but proud few, and I salute you — and […]

Bob hasn’t posted in a coon’s age but he’s still active (in an odd definition of the term…)
–here’s an excerpt from a recent email (me to Bob)
You’re watching Eva right now: that’s a 12 year old anime but it’s a classic — evergreen, always of note; combine it with gundam, macross, and patlabor and you […]

I could write an entirely inappropriate entry–with crude analogies–about how the length and girth (and anchor tags, and self-referential linking) of the recently posted consolidated sales rankings article was almost too much for WordPress to handle, but somehow I managed to get the ‘one big post’ off without too much wrangling, and WordPress only complained […]

While the blog as a whole can be enjoyed by just about everyone, if you plan to follow the discussion in one of my columns (http://comicsnob.com/category/5by8/) then you should be forewarned:

These were posted in reverse order, but that’s only because I (Matt, the manga guy) am doing the writeups and have a teensy bit more interest in trade paperbacks, as opposed to floppies. Lucky for us, Bob reviews both. Much like the last set, or next set depending on when and in which order you’re […]

I’m not above promoting myself (any blogger is inherently, perhaps genetically, predisposed to be guilty of that particular offence) and I am proud of what we’ve done since our ‘official’ launch on 1 January (rightly so, IMHO) but I know most of you linking in from some outside site (as always, thanks for linking!) have […]

The weekly column 5by8 will return next week (Monday 19 March) with its 14th installment, and hopefully by then I will have a topic. [*chuckle*]
We’ve been taking a bit of a break this past week, after the long stretch of reviews, columns, field reports, and other miscellaneous posts over the first two months of 2007, […]

Okay, kids. We’ve added forums! Check out the link above. You can do all kinds of forum-y things like upload or link avatars, talk about stuff, and mark lots of stuff as spoilers.  We’ll start seeding some topics in there, but for now feel free to add your own!
If you’ve got any […]

We’re switching our syndication over to FeedBurner, well, pretty much immediately.  If you are already subscribed to comicsnob.com, you should not see any interruption in service.  If you do, please adjust your newsreader to point to the new location: http://feeds.feedburner.com/Comicsnob
We apologize for any inconvenience.

Here we are - celebrating our first luniversary. Comicsnob.com officially launched a month ago (though we’d been around for a little while before we rang the world’s doorbell). I won’t be doing monthly assessments, but I wanted to jump in here and hopefully make a course adjustment or two before we get […]

From the opening of hostilities last Thursday, it might seem like the Manga Militia is leading, but the All-American Comics Corps is holding its own, and in it’s effort to dominate the field early, the manga forces may have over-reached themselves and are staggering a bit– though as of today they are still in the […]

So here it is, folks. The first of probably many challenges that will be thrown around in a drunken stupor:
Manga-fanboy Matt has challenged the both of us to produce at least one post per day for the next 6 weeks. Not a big deal, you might say, but it’s also something we haven’t […]

Today is the first day of 2007. News to you? I think not. Today is the day that many of you will make resolutions which may or may not stick. Today is also the day that comicsnob.com announces its official launch. Today we cease being mice (see our last few […]

Hello to everyone who has linked to us from either ComicSpace or Steven Grant’s Permanent Damage column on Comic Book Resources!
We’re striving to build a site where we wax philosophical on topics relating to comics - both foreign and domestic. We’re not fully operational yet, and you may notice a few changes here and there, […]
