John C:
I'll also copy-and-paste myself in with some minor editing.
It sounds like a downer, and I guess it's not quite a blog, but I've been a fan of Stupid Comics for a long while:

"What's this? A paunchy hand points a tiny pistol at easy-to-draw silhouettes of a man, some planes, and giant penises? Luckily a small boy hugs Fidel Castro..." You'll have to find and read the rest of the article for yourself (OK, it's the Dell Werewolf story).
I'm also down with the already mentioned Flashback Universe (and Jim Shelley sometimes wanders by picking up comics to offer), though I've been...somewhat less impressed with the writers other than Jim.
The Absorbascon is now dormant, but is still frequently entertaining and insightful:

Siskoid also has his moments, though he's a little too methodical for me to be a constant reader--for example, capsule-reviewing everything ever Star Trek:

And there's also some great material at Dial B:

There's some mediocre stuff where he just posts images with little to no commentary (presumably because "Robby" is a graphic designer), but there's also neat stuff on Batman's origins and (the last articles listed) probably the best letterer in the business. Yes, I said letterer. And no, I don't mean the Charlton cereal box printer, though that would be a great article to read.

Thanks for those great links. The old t.v.shows should provide me with ages of corny entertainment, especially as it's virtually all American and I've seen so few of them.
Ami_GFX:
Heres another one. Great photos of kids actually reading golden age comics in the golden age and lots of great stuff:

And for Steve Ditko fans there's lots of his earlier more obscure work here:

Thanks Ami,
I had such a topic with comics in old photos on the other site. I'll move it over here as I was the one making the posts and my statements there and photos do not belong to any one site.
Stay tuned,
