I wanna read the comic before I start the review - it won't take long. Cognissonance ( talk) 00:35, 19 January 2018 (UTC) reply

Creation and cancellation

• "Ellis began his run on the title with "Haunted"" – Ref. 2 (ComicsAlliance) should be put with ref. 3, as it substantiates this timeline.
• "PR" – Link to Public Relations.
• "reasoning that the Columbine massacre had just happened and the story's subject matter was too disturbing" – Copyedit: "reasoning that the story's subject matter was too disturbing in light of the Columbine massacre".

Aftermath

• "Ellis was surprised, saying it "never occurred to [him]" that DC would change its stance about the story" – The source says "It never occurred to me that a new regime would feel differently". Add the context of "Levitz would not release the book so long as he was running DC" with the "new regime" detail.

See also

• Why is " The Case of the Chemical Syndicate" linked?
  • It was the only similar article I could think of (it was also published by DC). I'll remove it though. JOE BRO 64 11:43, 19 January 2018 (UTC) reply

References

• Ref. 3 is not in line with the date format of the rest of the sources.
• Is it normal to have the "Warning: Display title "Shoot (Hellblazer)" overrides earlier display title "Shoot (Hellblazer)"." message there or is there some way of removing it?
  • I fixed that. Had to add {{|noerror}}. JOE BRO 64 11:43, 19 January 2018 (UTC) reply

Overall

As there are only minor concerns in my notes, I edited most of them myself. I will promote it once I get the answer to how the warning message could be dealt with and why the See also link is there. Cognissonance ( talk) 04:39, 19 January 2018 (UTC) reply
