And yes, I'm reclaiming the word comics. ("Graphic novel" is not any more descriptive, and worse in that it implies fictional content to the detriment of memoir, travelogue, reportage, etc., which is where you find some of the most interesting work being currently done—Alison Bechdel, Joe Sacco, Lucy Knisley, perhaps?)
Other than dccomics.com (because, for better or worse, Batman is still at the top of my list, even though he appears to be dead, by the way, and there's a big shake-up over the cowl coming up), the brand spanking new Graphic Novel Reporter is making a good case for being my one-stop comics source. News, reviews, and interviews, what more could you ask for?
