The comic publishing house Marvel is 70 years old this week. With a huge back catalogue to be viewed digitally and much to do online, the company is managing to remain fresh by engaging fans through modern means. Executive editor and site blogger took a moment to talk about the inky history and the pixellated future.

Sites for fans are a great place to learn more about the genre and discuss the latest episodes of our favourite caped crusaders and super villains. Stephen Schleicher is the executive producer of the website where fans chat about their collections and more.

If you like your comics to be portable, you might enjoy reading them in digital form on a mobile phone or ipod. David Steinberger of works out ways to make panels less painful on a small screen.

If you are made for pod casts and comics, you will love podcast. Chris and Eugene who make the show are funny, totally know their comics and get some great artists and writers on board to talk to them so drop by and give them a listen.

You may want to be a grown up to listen as there are some adult themes and of course that goes for some of the comics you may find online. People are certainly creative but make sure you look out for the difference between adult and kids comics.

On a different note but certainly as creative, Brian Singer of took a moment to talk about the vast array of art and diary intrigue he has uploaded to his site each day.
