Neilalien bids us farewell….

Comics and cartoons

Eleven years is an awful long time to be doing anything, but 11 years of blogging regularly is a huge achievement. So it’s congratulations and goodbyes to the great Neilalien, who’s announced his partial retirement from comic blogging over at his NeilAlien Blog:

“The still-addicted intent is to avoid a complete retirement. Neilalien still enjoys doing this website, and he will still require an online self-expression outlet. Barring circumstances, there will be no blogging in March (March Madness has usually had a negative impact on blog content anyway), and the planned next post will be an annual Favorites of MoCCA post after the festival in April. MoCCA usually refills the gas tank, but beyond that, no one can say. The Doctor Strange Info Pages will get some much-needed brushing-up and be maintained. It may be 1-2 braindumps a month. Like the Ancient One to Doctor Strange, he may occasionally appear to again bolster Doc fandom through its greatest challenges. Maybe the Neilalien brand will be completely repurposed. Maybe this is the last post ever. He will still be around, knock on wood- but regardless of what continues, near-daily linkblogging must end.”

So farewell to a blog pioneer, hopefully, like he says, he’ll still find time to semi-regularly update us on all things Doctor Strange.

    Hey that Doctor Strange cover is pretty awesome. Looks like it’s from my favorite era too, the 80′s. Makes me want to find and buy a copy.

    Paul Smith had a really short run on Doctor Strange, but like everything he does, well worth getting hold of.
