Comics: DC Comics Template‑class | ||||||||||
|
I was doing a little work on Doctor Fate, and found this template, which was already open. In the "Creators" field we find the names Gardner Fox and Roy Thomas. Excuse me, but what the hell did Roy have to do with creating Earth-Two? He wasn't even a comics pro then. Admittedly he severely (and I use that word deliberately, but that's another debate) redefined it with his 1980s series All-Star Squadron and Infinity, Inc., but that is very far removed from creating the damned thing. The article doesn't deal with this question at all. Unless someone knows that as a fan corresponding with Fox (and/or editor Julius Schwartz, who from what I've heard does deserve to be there) at the time Thomas actually had input at the outset, his name should be removed. Anybody care to comment? -- Ted Watson ( talk) 22:30, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
In the "Inhabitants" list, doesn't the entry for Star-Spangled Kid cover Sylvester Pemberton, or vice versa? After all, unless the relevant Wiki-articles are highly misleading, nobody else has been the S-S Kid on Earth 2, the point here. -- Tbrittreid ( talk) 21:20, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
