[edit] A.k.a.

Didn't realize someone had changed it to "aka" when I reverted it to "a.k.a." — I thought I was fixing something I'd written myself. I couldn't find any guidance about the term at Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style, though that page does mention the Chicago Manual of Style — whose official page [1] doesn't say antyhing about the term. Since it's an abbreviation for "also known as", and not the word "aka", I'm wondering if the periods might not make it clearer? -- Tenebrae 22:58, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Possibly" best known for the Hulk?

Is Bruce Jones best known for his recent Hulk run? Nothing against those comics, but I suspect more comic readers remember his prolific 1980s output. The article itself doesn't establish what makes the Hulk run special, other than that sales went up some unspecified degree, which is hard to put in context without sales figures for his other comics and novels. If the criteria was quantity, Jones' the screenwriter may have had the largest audience. --AC 09:05, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
