    I was looking at a domain I want for my company (it is, simply, my company's initials) and went to check the whois to see how long it is registered for. It's registered until 2050... I thought 10 year registrations were the max?

    I don't know but if you are after a 2 or 3 letter domain name it's probably best to just give up on the idea.

    No, it has nothing to do with comics.
