Comic book listing

edit

I just noticed a page called "list of comicbooks" and I noticed Vampirella and Harris not being mentioned. So I am sure this list is not being maintained. Is this list a focus of this WikiProject Comics group? --boomvavavoom 12:00, 11 January 2006 (UTC)Reply

Harris and Vampirella have since been added. --GentlemanGhost (talk) 17:49, 12 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

"Biblical"

edit

A sentence in the introduction previously read:

"She learned that she was, in fact, the daughter of Lilith, the Biblical first wife of Adam from the Book of Genesis."

I eliminated the word "Biblical," because Lilith does not appear in the Book of Genesis, and the idea of Lilith as Adam's first wife is nowhere to be found in the Bible. Ergo, Lilith is not the "biblical" first wife of Adam, but the "first wife of Adam according to various extra-biblical mythologies." The Lilith article actually makes this quite clear.

What about Vampi?

Um, that one sentence may have been changed, but it clearly says in two other places on this page that Lilith is from Genesis. I'm going to go fix them now. Same reason. Lilith is not in the Bible, she is part of a separate story that someone placed in the same setting. A completely separate part of the Bible, not dealing with creation, mentions a demon or something named Lilith once in passing, giving no details about its back-story whatsoever. That's hardly the same as the book opening with her, as a woman, getting thrown out of Eden. --67.110.209.218 04:43, 13 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Feminist?

edit

On 6 September 2006, someone from 24.116.236.9 added Vampirella and Stripperella to the category 'Fictional Feminists.' Female superheros, sure - but has Vampirella ever been a feminist in any overt sense? Wyvern 16:39, 6 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

That would depend on the writer. One of the primary draws of Vampirella is that she has had so many great writers work on her. I know recently there was a movement with her and Red Sonja to make them both far left and hyper-political--but I can't remember who was the writer, I believe it was the same writer that got fired from Batgirl for late submissions. So, at least with her--I want to say Simone--she was momentarily a far-left feminist...and on that note, this article really is in need of a section highlighting the epic writers that have done runs on Vampirella.

Pixilated image

edit

The SHB image, blown up to regulation 250px, is pixilated and breaking up. A better image is needed. --Tenebrae 16:13, 2 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Editor posting edit-war threats and insults

edit

User:Cculber007 anonymously posted threats and insults on my talk page here, threatening an edit war calling me "Coward dolt" and promising, I will continue fighting against you as you are deaf discrimianting [sic] dolt. ... Get lost."

This about his putting up a superhero box image that, as I did note in my edit summary, goes against the policy at Wikipedia:WikiProject Comics/Style guidance#Superhero box image, which states that standard is to use "the character standing straight with no background," and not images "that have more characters and/or objects than the subject of the article," which should only be used as secondary choice and preferably "by cropping, obscuring and/or painting out the other characters".

The image of Vampirella #1, aside from being historically significant and by the character's primary artist-designer, has virtually no background. The highly volatile User:Cculber007's image has a hugely cluttered background and though a fine Art Adams image for the article itself, isn't appropriate for the superherobox. --Tenebrae (talk) 14:59, 12 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Costume design

edit

It is noted in the page for Trina Robbins that "Trina designed Vampirella's costume for Forrest Ackerman and Jim Warren."

This is information that would be appropriate on the Vampirella page, if proper citation can be found. I am sure that it is correct, having seen it mentioned in an article from the 1970s but I am not sure where it was now. A Google search on "Vampirella Trina Robbins" brings up a number of sites that state this, for instance http://www.comicsbulletin.com/news/121859686119849.htm if that, or any of the others, is considered reliable citation.

I'll keep my fuzzy paws off of the article, since some wikinazis seem to have declared revert war on me. Kid Bugs (talk) 19:34, 4 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

1975 Film

edit

In Creepy # 75 was announced a Vampirella film by Hammer Productions coming soon. Does anybody know anything about this? Lalli (talk) 18:04, 15 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Trina Robbins

edit

Is this the same Trina Robbins as the famous underground cartoonist/ comics "herstorian"? It should be noted, then. 惑乱 Wakuran (talk) 14:29, 21 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

She's ID'd as "artist" ad there's a bluelink, but perhaps "comics artist" would be more specific. I'll add. --Tenebrae (talk) 14:49, 22 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

Can we get something like the Red Sonja page?

edit

On the Red Sonja page it lists all of her main appearances. Can we get something like that for Vampirella? Since she's not a Marvel or DC character I don't know that there is a definitive list that covers everything. --Meteor — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.16.124.119 (talk) 21:19, 17 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

Other comics linked to Vampirella

edit

Is there any way we can get a page linked to Vampirella? Like there are a few characters that have their own series. Like Pantha one with Harris and two Dynamite. We have Sacred Six and Nyx. Not only that but why isn't Vengeance the first comic in the wiki or have it's own page? It was the most popular Harris title at the time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Angela275 (talkcontribs) 00:04, 28 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

Regarding pages for other characters or series, please check Wikipedia's guidelines for notability -- WP:NOTE. Wikipedia is not meant to be an all-inclusive index of characters and story events. The page is already a bit too cluttered with extraneous info.
Regarding the Harris Vengeance title, the timeline can be adjusted with appropriate sources if needed. I think you'll have to be more specific here in the Talk page. -- GimmeChoco44 (talk) 09:09, 28 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
I get if they are to trivial but some of these comics are linked to other comics why remove some or at least let there be links to those. Angela275 (talk) 22:02, 3 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
These sections can be trimmed much further. Feel free to remove other items that are not essential to understanding the general scope of the character. GimmeChoco44 (talk) 04:11, 4 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
