On top of that, the Shrine's audience went up 400% between Monday, May 31, and yesterday, June 1. Of course, much of that audience will disappear after that one day spike, but hopefully the Shrine will be able to keep a couple of those new visitors!
If you find the Aquaman Shrine BP cover on a blog or site not listed above, leave a comment and let us know so I can add it to the list!
Post Script: One thing I wanted to add, for anyone visiting the site who isn't a die-hard Aquaman fan: I've seen this cover attributed to me and the Shrine exclusively.
Yes, the idea is mine and I did the Photoshop work, but the original cover art is by legendary illustrator Nick Cardy. I wouldn't want anyone giving me credit for the art, since I had nothing to do with it. All I did was come up with the idea, and add the oil and the BP logo.
So if anyone wants to use this image on their site, please do; but be aware that crediting the original artwork to me would be incorrect: it's thanks to the genius of Nick Cardy that I could do my BP version in the first place!

Congrats on the Shrine's continued exposure rob! Let's hope you don't hear from either DC or BP with an order to take it down!!! LOL (sorta)
Joe Slab
Joe--I bet DC loves the free publicity. As for BP, I think they've got other things on their mind.
Besides, I'm not planning on taking any orders from BP anytime soon. :)
You are so right!
I love it! Not only did you do a fine job tweaking Nick's art, but your blog is getting great attention.
I'm glad that my contribution: http://aquablog.gjovaag.com/2010/05/oh-no-aquaman-has-some-explaining-to-do.html hasn't gone viral.
Also spotted (with attribution) at another of my favorite blogs, Dependable Renegade.
Congrats on all the exposure! I have to say though, I think it's a little lame the Daily News didn't link to your blog directly.
It is awesome. Since I posted it on Tumblr (at the Caffeinted Joe To Go blog in your list above), the "likes" and "reblogs" have gone through the roof! Seriously, check out the page and scroll down to see how long the list is!
Kudos, Rob!
RAB--thanks for the link, added!
Jill--Yeah, I was a little disappointed but at least most other sites have been linking here.
Joe--You were a big help getting this thing moving. Thanks!
/me checks to make sure I gave proper credit...
Yay! I'm not a jerk.
My son wanted to help, but not without his own comments: My Power is Beyond Your Understanding
It is a really awesome cover and statement Rob!
It is a really awesome cover and statement Rob!
Wonderful.
DC should be honoured to be associated with it.
CONGRATS FOR THIS , IT IS SO GOOD I POSTED IT IN MY BLOG TOO FOR THIS DAY :)

Rob, you made the New York Daily News!!! You've been a sort of unofficial leader for our superhero blogs for some time now, but I think this unquestionably crowns you as our blogger king! The public has spoken. Congratulations on a poignant political statement well made.
Dix--I just got lucky, putting up the right image at the right time. That Nick Cardy cover is so good, it did 95% of the work for me.
One of my favorite things about blogging is, if I have an idea, I can move on it immediately. That's how the cover came about, and within a few minutes of thinking of it, I had it up on the Shrine.

You can find it there too
it's a site called About.com
Here's another one, Rob:
