5. Superhero Nation. Surprisingly, this is a blog about writing, with an emphasis on superhero stories. Good basic education and thoughts for the superhero-fixated beginner.
4. Black Superhero Fan. If you are perhaps a wee bit obsessive about the superhero genre, and the representation of race therein, is this ever the blog for you. Updated faithfully several times a week, it’s a reliable first source for your cultural-studies thesis, or just a little self-education about the evolution of racial identity in a pop-cultural lens.
3. The Daily Batman. It’s hard to articulate the beauty of a pop-cultural phenomenon: it unites so many disparate sources into a new argot. The Daily Batman is an online time-released museum of all things Batman, and a look at the permutations hundreds of minds can bring to a single concept.
2. Superhero Twitter Feeds. Okay, it’s not a blog, but it has RSS like a blog, you can check it regularly like a blog… it’s close enough. Blogs allegedly authored by superheroes don’t really grab me: the joke’s tough to sustain and the layouts seem out of character in all the wrong, unfunny ways. But Twitter feeds, those are about as long as a speech balloon, and they just seem to suit the characters’ voices– or a distorted version of same– better. This curated list collects the cream of the crop– DRUNKHULK, JJONAHJAMESON, God_Damn_Batman, HOBODARKSEID, Not_Mark_Millar and feministhulk.
1. Law and the Multiverse. Daredevil, Wolff & Byrd and She-Hulk have toyed with the idea of superhero worlds as fodder for legal drama, but the latter two are comedies that don’t delve deeply into their subject, and frankly, the author of Law and the Multiverse makes Matt Murdock look like a one-L. Fascinating stuff with meat on the bone– worth coming back to again and again, if you’re interested in the theoretical questions superheroes’ existence raises.
Regarding #1: Like so many crazy ideas featuring superheroes, Astro City has done this one too. I couldn’t give the volume and issue number, but the story featured the invention of the “superhero defense”- citing historical cases of things such as shapeshifter replacement, mind control, alternate-reality doppelganger(s), telepathic or magical illusion, etc. to point out the sheer possibility inherent in the world, cast doubt on witness testimony, and get a defendant off the hook. This isn’t even close to the full story, though- I believe that’s collected in the Local Heroes trade paperback.
No love for Chris’s Invincible Super-Blog?
It’s really more of a general comics blog than a superhero one, despite the name.

Superherostuff.com is another great website! Let us know your thoughts while you check out all the the new superhero and science fiction related items.
Have you seen the Lost Heroes independent superhero web series that was done for a 48 hour film competition? It’s pretty good. I hear they’re expanding it with more special effects and more action.

Hi guys
Could I ask you superhero fans out there a favour? I’m a UK writer and I’ve written a novel about teenage superheroes. It’s called A Class Apart and is part of a series called Class Heroes. Perhaps you could check it out?
On the series website (http://www.classheroes.com/) you’ll find preview chapters (so you can test whether it’s any good or not), my superhero blog, fictional news reports and videos on the events that take place in the book – and other stuff too. I’ll keep my fingers crossed that you like it.
Cheers
Steve
Hey guys! So I think my roommate is a Super Hero. I entered a short film into a film festival documenting a day of my roommate Matt to try and catch him in the act of fighting crime. It’s very funny and great fun. If you guys could watch the video, like, it and send it to others that would be amazing! If we get the most views in the next 30 days (28 now) our film will win the Wild Card award and it will go to the Finals in sunny LA. Thanks, and enjoy Project BirdSong!

what happened to Dailybatman? It was brilliant. The site is gone.

It’s so hard to find decent Twitter feeds for superhero related news without somebody trying to be humorous by pretending to be a superhero and like some sad cling to underserved fame, it’s what ruined MySpace, that and that it was rubbish
