Hm. I wonder if you're having a connection problem, FF? I've been able to access the cover browser pretty regularly. And while there are definitely a number of dead links, I'm still able to pull up most of what's there. In fact, I think the availability or access has improved since I first joined a couple of years ago-- as there were very few links, outside this board, that were working at that point. Or maybe everything just got fixed 'cause you mentioned it? Shir or Van got out their toolboxes once they got the work order? Oh if only the rest of the service industry could be so responsive. . .

Upon further review I do find a lot of the recent links are pretty active (I didn't bother checking the Bendis related stuff because y'know...), but older articles seem to be very hit or miss. try reading most of the stuff on this page for example: www.whiterocketbooks.com/avengers/articles.htmlJust seems like the lights are being shut off in here...

For a moment you gave me a heart attack there. It's the main AA website you are talking about, not the boards. I think Van used external services to host some of the pages, it's common practice when the main host offers limited space, bandwidth or both. The downside is that small hosts sometimes simply cease to exist and when that happens all your files are deleted. I was in a similar situation about 7-8 years ago and it's totally outside of the webmaster's hands. What I did in the end was to buy a larger webspace for an annual fee and move everything in there.
