Comichron is one of my recommended websites, and owner John Jackson Miller keeps tabs on yearly comic book sales.

I’ve added the Comic Book Secrets Twitter Feed to the website on the right sidebar.  Along with the stories on the site I also add links to other interesting news and most importantly links to live auctions of my comic book watch list.  This includes blue-chip comics, high grade copies and speculation issues based on movies and tv shows.
