Golden Age Comic Book Stories - a Recommended Blog

Since the Weblog Awards are not going to be held this year, I'm going to take some time to recommend other blogs that I think should have/would have/might have received awards.

Despite its name, Golden Age Comic Book Stories is not simply about traditional comic books.  As you scroll through the extensive list of labels in the left sidebar, it's apparent that the focus is on art and illustration, be it in comics or other publications such as books and magazines.  I enjoy searching by artist (here are the selections for Arthur Rackham, N.C. Wyeth, Frank Frazetta).  There are also photo compilations, especially of movie stars (Claudette Colbert, Barbara Stanwyck).

For a blog that's only entering its third year, there is an immense amount of visual material to explore.  For a sample, just go to the home page and scroll down.
