On a lark, I checked BillFinger.com, expecting it to be “domain not found.”
Yet it was found, found to redirect to Tales of Wonder (talesofwonder.com), a Georgia company that is “one of the largest direct market retailers of trade paperbacks, hardcover books, and merchandise related to the comic book industry.”
Tales of Wonder's Andy Eaton explained: “We registered BillFinger.com because we carry classic collections of his work. I suppose the kind of person who would know his name is our kind of customer.”
Hopefully they will have a whole new batch of customers now:
Andy went on to say “We have other classic creators registered with us, but it's early and I'm going to take a pass on looking them up.” (I tried Jerry Siegel, Joe Shuster, Will Eisner, Jack Kirby, and Steve Ditko...none worked.)
