[edit] Need images and descriptions

I've included a Picture column in the tables for this article. My hope is that some ambitious people will go out and find some pictures that can be used on this page.  :) Also, many of the characters need descriptions. Feel free to remove some very minor characters too. The lists seem way too long as they are. In my opinion, we should really remove any characters that only appeared in a couple of scenes.

Looks good. I'll look it over and add/edit what I can as I get the chance. One thing that probably should be added is another category (citizens?), to include major characters that are neither superheroes or supervillians (Dot, Sally Vacuum) and superbeings who are more ambiguous (Chainsaw Vigilante, Red Eye, Dinosaur Neil). I would add pics, but I need to better understand the copyright policies on Wikipedia, because right now, it really confuses me Ballabosh 14:30, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. That's a good idea. I agree we should have some other categories for significant characters who don't fit into superhero or supervillain. Aldryd ^{(talk • contribs)} 04:26, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Comprehensive list or just notable characters?

I was also thinking that we should decide whether this should be an exhaustive list of all the superheroes and supervillains or just the notable ones. As in, should we include extremely minor characters that are only mentioned once in a single episode or should we just limit the list to just the notable ones?

Well, I'd love to be comprehensive, but probably that's not within the venue of Wikipedia. Perhaps within this current article we should describe the notable minor characters and then have a simple list at the end: also appearing, or something.Ballabosh 20:23, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Oedipus

I thought the character of Oedipus was a parody of Elektra - which, given their names, seems to make more sense. Also, this page states that she is a parody of the Daredevil character. Therefore, I am changing the page to reflect that. LeeNapier 20:30, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
