*** Fan-Fiction
These are sites where fanfic stories are accepted and/or archived. Some
simply fill in gaps in the real timeline, while others create new teams
and characters in a divergent timeline. At this point in time, there
are *way* too many links for me to sift through and deal with. So, I'll
just highlight a few major links; look through them for *tons* of links
to archives, writing groups, individual stories, and the like.

*** Internet Relay Chat
Many comics fans like to chat on IRC. There are a few different
channels which might meet your needs. Get a client like mIRC or
IRCle and you'll be ready to go! If you have a unix account, just
try typing irc at the prompt.
To get on a specific server, type /server foo.bar.net and it'll send
you to that server. To join a specific channel, just type
/join #channelname ... Got it? Some channel regulars also have pages.

These are like online role-playing games-- a MUD crossed with a RPG.
You generally subscribe to a single named character, which you
roleplay, or log in as a guest and play a "mere human." Sounds fun to
me!

General rec.arts.comics.xbooks FAQ, written by David R. Henry. This
FAQ was reorganized (with added material) by Katharine E. (Weizel)
Hahn.
The Keeper of the Where Can I Find It? FAQ would like to thank:
* David R. Henry, for writing the previous thing,
* Marty Blase and Steve Thoemke for having such organized Web pages,
* and Aardy R. DeVarque, for reasons too numerous to mention.
