I am positive that there was an Earth-One Jim Corrigan. He was an African-American and was seen at the pages of the first Black Lightning series. I think he deserves some sort of mention. Luis Dantas 08:04, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image

The Gotham Central cover with the Jim Corrigan of that era is nice, but I think that the Jim Corrigan who became the Spectre is a more significant figure in comics history, and should be depicted in the infobox. I don't have a scanner, but if someone else does it would be good to get an image either from the early More Fun Comics (reprinted in the Golden Age Spectre Archives), or from the Ostrander/Mandrake run (as the most significant recent portrayal of the character). (I don't recall whether Jim Corrigan even appeared in the Fleischer/Aparo Spectre stories — all I remember from them is the Spectre opening up new and inventive flavors of whup-ass.)

Having the 2000s version of Corrigan in the infobox isn't really a problem, I just think the article would be better off with an image of the original. After all, that's who most of the article is about. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 05:57, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
