Welcome back! Sorry I haven't been around much. I've been busy with work and other things (been enjoying my summer by hitting the local amusement park about once a week and doing other outdoorsy activities)

At this point it's pretty much safe to assume that the old stuff is lost. I don't know if the disk image from the old host is even available anymore (I got busy and gave up trying to download it as it's a lot of work to download something that size).

Lots of good stuff coming in the fall 
The Black Hood #1: Season 2
The acclaimed crime comic returns with an all-new #1 issue—a perfect jumping-on point for new readers. "The Nobody Murders, Part 1": The Black Hood is no more. Sure, there are rumors that the former cop known as Greg Hettinger is still out there, blending in with the homeless population—and emerging only to stop a violent attack before vanishing again. But the ruthless assassin known as The Nobody considers the Black Hood a loose end, and he's willing to slaughter dozens to flush him out. How high must the body count rise before Greg steps forward to face an opponent he can't possibly beat? Dive into the book UPROXX calls "Highly recommended" and THE MIAMI HERALD regards as "Noir fiction fans will surely dig," as a new season of THE BLACK HOOD kicks off from the killer creative team of Swierczynski and Scott!

It's the whole "WYSIWYG" thing — the text is changed to graphics before being displayed, so there's nothing to cache when you leave the page — and personally I hate it even when just trying to type normally it's a major painYou can't see what you're really doing, and have to fight with it to get it to display properly, and it only works half the time anyway, which is why a "Preview" button is still necessary. And it's much worse if you have to try to use it from a portable device ...
While some people may find it adequate or even helpful, we should have an option (in profile perhaps) to use the text BBCode.
You can disable the WYSIWYG feature in your profile. Go to your profile then go to Modify Profile -> Look and Layout and uncheck the "Show WYSIWYG editor on post page by default" box.

I didn't go to the comic shop for FCBD this year. I've already got Archie #1 and already have a ton of other Archie comics that I haven't read yet so I didn't really want to add to that pile yet.
