That could be the real reason. I just heard from Terry Beatty, who says he had nothing to do with it.

Hey, Paul. It's me, Aldo, back from the dead again. Just wanted to say you were so very right about the squishiness of certain people's egos at Comics Kingdom. Even though I've praised Mike Manley & the others more than any other snarker, my mere mention of what they said PUBLICLY about us elsewhere ultimately led to…

I agree. I once wrote something snarky on Snuffy Smith, and was horrified to see that John Rose, the guys who draws it, was reading the comments. The strip is actually looks better now than it has since its original cartoonist from the '20s and '30s, so I felt especially bad. But since I have always extravagantly…

Hey, Tatonka. It's your pal, Aldo Kelrast, from Comics Kingdom. I had to come here to find you in order to tell you that Comics Kingdom has banned me from commenting on ALL their comments. I don't know why. It was really fun while it lasted.

Hey, @disqus_u9KuuyS1qW:disqus. This is @aldo_kelrast:disqus from Comics Kingdom. Had to come here to tell you that I've been BANNED from Comics Kingdom. It was nice knowing you all.

Hey, @PaulJones202718:disqus. I came here to track you down because you made a great comment about how squishy the moderators of the Comics Kingdom site are. Boy, were you right! I've been banned from Comics Kingdom. In case people eventually start asking whatever happened to me, feel free to tell them.
