Cracked. Far and away. Once they fired half their staff, you could tell it went downhill. I still miss Michael Swaim.

Comicvine used to be really active with articles, and frankly a much nicer forum environment than the CBR forums, yikes, I used to be horrified at the cynicism over here, now ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I'm acclimated to it, corrupted a bit too, maybe I like it here now.
CBR, Ask Men, Bleeding Cool, Homestar Runner, Superhero Hype, and there's one other I can't think of.

I used to log in at Superhero Hype too. It was kind of cool for a while because there were a few times that FF film director Tim Story would post there while the first movie was in production. He seemed like a nice buy and did know his Fantastic Four. IIRC he was a fan of the Byrne run. I think the studio kind of crushed him though.

You mean other then YouTube. I can’t look up anything comic book related without my recommends being flooded with comicgate garbage.
The worst part is, I think the death of my brother has caused him to become more insular. I don't talk about my personal life much on here but my brother was kind of a leveling force to some of his worst excesses and I don't know how to be that. He doesn't have his "buddy" anymore and I don't know how to fill that role. They had much more in common than he and I do and he was his biological son.

In 2005, AnimeonDVD was the first forum I ever joined and I truly enjoyed my time there. If you're out there Chris (Mr. Beveridge), I'm sorry for all the trouble I caused you and I hope you won't hold it against me. Peace.

Tragedy has a tendency to have us look for places of comfort, companionship, and often enough something to focus blame/aggression/pain on.
I wish there was something I could offer you other than you can't make someone be something they're not, and you shouldn't put that burden upon yourself.
