[edit] Suggestions

The former members list probably should list Plage instead of the generic "Pestilence III". War I and Famine should probably be listed by their civilian names. There is a weird wiki to "War II (comics)" that I think should be removed.

Also, if Warren is Death II, then who exactly was Death I? The rosters probably could be made clearer. Luis Dantas 03:10, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

Death I is Death itself.--Gonzalo84 01:09, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Personally, I'd advocate doing away with that silly numbering system and just adopt the current OHOTMU method, which would be "Death (Worthington)", "Pestlience (Plague)", etc. Or at least, if you MUST number them, just number then relevant to the Horsemen itself. When you start including entirely unrelated characters who happen to have the same name, it's just silly and confusing - that's why the OHOTMU stopped it. - Chris McFeely 9th May 2006

[edit] Polaris

It is incredibly unlikely Polaris will be a Horseman (Horsewoman?) anytime soon; she has recently been announced as part of the line-up for the new X-men team.

so? this line "Polaris will eventually break free of Apocalypse's control, regain her magnetic powers and rejoin the X-Men in the near future." is stupid. Seriously, unless whoever put it these was an X-Men writer (and even then, as they rarely get things right) there is no way to say that. WookMuff 04:21, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Black Gambit?

Has he ever been referred to as such?? --DrBat 23:00, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

There is a photoshopped image that uses this term. I'm fixing the article now. WikiFew 21:03, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] the hulk?

"All of Apocalypse's horsemen are alpha-level mutants." Wasn't the Hulk a mutate, not a mutant?

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Warhulkapocalypse456.png

Image:Warhulkapocalypse456.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
