Clive Barker was selected as the Portal of Horror Horror-related biography of the month for February 2007.

Move Razorline?

The comics section has a lot of interesting, pertinent background not readily found elsewhere. But should it be condensed and most of this information placed in a separate Razorline entry? There is precedent for this with other Marvel Comics imprints such as Epic, MAX and 2099. Thoughts?

• Razorline background material and details moved to entry for Marvel imprint Razorline, consistent with existing entries for fellow Marvel imprints Epic Comics, Marvel 2099, and MAX. — Tenebrae 21:42, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Photo

Really, this article needs a pic of Mr. Barker. Willerror 01:32, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Undying?

Shouldn't Clive Barker's Undying be listed? Or did the game have little to do with his work and simply carried his name?

[edit] Jericho?

Why was the information regarding Barker's latest game project, Jericho removed?

[edit] Schools?

He brags of going to the same schools as John Lennon? How strange. There is a 12 year age difference, so he obviously went to these schools well after Lennon had left. Interesting to note that, like Lennon, he has affected an American accent. Guv2006 13:21, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Abarat?

Is this a quartet or a quintet? It is called both under the Novels section.

[edit] Clive Barker's Real Sexuality

I can't find the source, so I realize that this cannot go in, but I feel like I should say it anyway. Clive Barker once said that he is actually bisexual, but calls himself a homosexual writer because far more people are understanding of homosexuals than bisexuals.

[edit] Article structure

This article is chaotic. The introduction contains random stuff, the Movies section should be much further down. There should be a separate biographical section earlier.
