Journalista!

Dirk Deppey has started up his excellent Journalista! blog at the Comics Journal again, which I'm sure will rapidly become one of the best read blogs in comics, if it isn't already. Deppey has a broader scope that anyone in his coverage... the only comics blogs that really compete are The Beat and The Comics Reporter (other comics blogs, including this one, tend to canibalize from these three sources probably more than any others). Of note in particular for cartoonists looking to promote their work or activities is this note in Journalista!:

Want to see your comics-related event listed here? Email me at dirk@tcj.com and let me know. No sales-only events, please — it’s nice that you’ve marked things down at your store or website, but I won’t be listing it here.

The entire Comics Journal website has been redone, including much more exclusive online content. They now have a PHPBB message board, where you can actually make edits to your posts, which is nice.
