[edit] Synthetic relatives

Professor Phineas T. Horton, Adam II and the Gremlin (revealed in the Vision Icon series to have been created during the 1940s) should all be listed as relatives. Kevingarcia 04:22, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

Done and done. Cybertooth85 22:54, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

Relatives? For an android? You gotta be kidding... —Lesfer ^(talk/mail) 12:50, 12 April 2006 (UTC)

Calling them "relatives" is a matter of science fiction convention, also reinforced by the use of the term in official Marvel publications. Oh, and there's another brother I forgot: Volton[1]. Although not originally a Marvel property, he is now part of Marvel Canon. - Kevingarcia 19:13, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

Also, Phineas Horton talked about the Vision as his son. In Avengers 135, he told the Torch that he was not the marrying kind, but had wanted to have offspring, and created the Torch to fill that need. This was as close as a 1970s comic book could come to identifying a character as gay. - Anon.135

[edit] Copyvio?

This page looks good, but it is so well written that I suspect it has been lifted from a copyrighted source. Can anyone confirm or disprove this? If it's not, it needs to be wikified (I wanted to see if it was copyrighted before I went to the effort). —Frecklefoot 15:23, 13 Aug 2003 (UTC)

The article was originally created by User:209.179.230.140. Googling phrases in the article turns up nothing but Wikipedia mirrors, so it seems legitimate and not a copyvio. —Lowellian (talk) 06:28, Jun 13, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Jim Hammond

Jim Hammond previously redirected here. I have now created a page for the footballer of this name. Anyone wishing to add a link here from that page (with explanation) should do so.
