Since you asked? I'd suck it up, understand that Wikipedia is attempting to be encyclopedic and that statements here should be backed up by reliable sources, and find one. You claim you're essentially an expert on Britich comics...what's to stop me from making the same claim about physics? We can't simply take an editor's word for it that they're qualified to speak about a particular subject. This is discussed at length at WP:V. Making the effort to find a reliable source seems, to me, a more productive use of your time than dwelling on the fact that your information was removed for lacking one, especially when it's not an attack on you or a matter of questioning your credibility.
