[edit] List of comic book superpowers

This list is rather widely linked to, even involving articles that are only comics-related (such as films and television series). It is in rather desperate need of references. I'd like to suggest that this be our next collaboration of the month, so that we can quickly and effectively clean up have what should be a core list for the project. This collaboration would also include the related superhuman power categories. - jc37 08:50, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hulk (comics)

A hugely iconic character who is lacking in references and issue numbers. Wiki-newbie 12:46, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

  1. My only worry about this is that we're heading into World War Hulk and the article is likely to be changing frequently throughout that event. It definitely needs work, but is now the best time? --Mrph 18:55, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
    When it was nominated it was a good time, now your right it will be a mess till that whole thing is over.Phoenix741 00:14, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Doonesbury

Nomination:Seriously, this comic is one of the best choricles in the newspapers today that gives an indept look on American politics and contemporary society in the late-20th century. However, there have been complaints of citations needed for the article, numerous characters that have yet to be added throughout the 37 year history of the strip, and large holes in the article that should be filled. There should also be a storyline that discusses what has happened with the major events. If this article gets nominated, becomes an article for nomination to become a feature article, later a feature article. Doonesbury's creator Garry Trudeau would be proud of us.-Spongefan 20:36, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Comic book

This by all rights should be this WikiProject's flagship page, yet it is currently an awful article. This desperately needs to be fixed, and it should be done ASAP! Ixistant 00:03, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Archie Comics

Archie Comics has a huge fanbase and has been around for 65 years (under that name - if you count the years as MLJ, it's even longer). This is the flagship article in the Archie Comics category, and needs some cleanup.. Oldiesmann 22:45, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Jim Shooter

If even half the assertions made in the criticism portion of the article are accurate and can be sourced, he would be one of the more influential people in comics in the last 25 years. The entire article is unreferenced and for someone who has had as many changes to characters linked to him, there should be some concentration devoted to this article.

Comments An extremely important character. Also, for what it's worth, I think I should have access to the Wonder Woman Encyclopedia by Michael Fleisher, which would probably be very useful. The same library also has the Batman Encyclopedia, but he's already FA. John Carter 20:22, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

Wonder Woman is the most famous superheroine, and as part of DC's Big Three, has immense significance to both the DC Universe, DC the company, and comics in general. Anakinjmt 21:54, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
