So I'm sitting here drinking my umpteenth cup of java thinking "hey what if someone only has their own comic creations what the heck would they do here?"

Well, anyone that draws their own comic series are more than welcome display (or flaunt) their stuff here, or even share their character universe info. Heck even if you create it on tissue paper in the bathroom, it's still good in my book and this is the place to show it off.

Just make sure it's not on used toilet paper :)

Trip was boring and I had no internet access (arrgh!) so I'm really happy to be back.

There can be separate marvel character / dc character page that lists the characters. I'm thinking that CBW should give a general profile, issue history, etc, as pertains to comic book collecting and then later using a top down approach, you can spawn separate marvel / dc universe wikis. — hartnell

You reading my mind again???? I thought you wouldn't do that anymore :)

That's where I was planning on going but I couldn't get figure out if it should be simply flat or categorized into universes (i.e. Marvel Universe). But Marvel & DC have criss crossed so many times and then both Marvel & DC have all of these alternate universe story lines that I kinda got frustrated and shelved it for later.

I think your right that keeping things as flat as possible is the right solution and probably the simplest for novice folks to add content.

I think this would be best, though I try to keep things as flat as possible :

categories :

  • character: for individual characters
  • comic: or series: for main pages of comic series
  • group: for supergroups
  • issue: for individual issues.

What do you think?

In my haste, I created a lot of pages that, well, are unneeded. Anything under the name "La Casa Nostroid" is no good. All links to these pages have been redirected to the correct information, as the comic's title was "La Cosa Nostroid." Damn me and my sloppyness.

Oh, and the Fire Man Press stuff is done as far as my abilities can extend on those right now. Give me a month and I can have it all done. YAY!

If there's other stuff you'd like to do on the site (other than list comic issues) feel free.

Create the page(s) and I'll figure out how to link'em to a new category.

Um, thanks, I'll do more. One day I'll get some crazy big WildC.A.T.s update going, but I'm not there yet. More than likely once I finish off most of Fireman Press I'll add some Oni and Slave Labor stuff. And more Madman stuff is on the way as well. I really like this site and will start spreading the word! Thanks again for the site Ken!

Radjose kicked some serious updating butt for our Image comic library!

I almost couldn't keep up :)

Great Work!

Well it looks like Marvel got their sales wish. Marvel has just reported that Amazing Spider-man #546 (the beginning of the "Brand New Day storyline") has completely sold out and to meet demand they will be issuing re-prints.

Love it or hate it…it's a hot topic and Spidey is being talked up in all kinds of circles.

Just finished posting the last issue from box 2. Whoo Hoo!

Well this is the end of Comic Page Updates Part I. I've been goin balls to the wall for 5 weeks now (without missing a day) so I'm taking a break before tackling another box.

I did open box 3 and it looks like it goes from Justice League to Silver Surfer. I'll cotinue updating everyone on my progress under a new thread labeled "Part II" but I'm taking a rest and I'll catch up with everyone in a week.

Re: Comic Page Updates by Ken KashKen Kash, 1200524631|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover

Due to the mystical meddling of Mephisto, Mary Jane has dropped the Parker last name with no memory of their wonderful marriage.

In a few words WTF! I realize the writers are always trying to ratchet up the story line but this is pure commercialism that can't be forgiven. This topic has appeared not just in comic forums but on hollywood blogs, magazines like PEOPLE, newspapers, etc… The owners of Marvel got exactly what they wanted, national media attention but in my opinion it may have been at the cost of the heroes soul (no pun intended).

M.J. has always been a part of the spider storylines. To casually treat the MJ character as they have is an insult to every Spiderman writer that has come before. I could live with storylines of divorce, cheating, etc… but to eliminate all memory of the relationship? That's like saying Uncle Ben & Aunt May never existed and are not really important to the storyline!

O.K. I've vented, still not to thrilled with Marvel though. So what's your opinion on the subject?

Click the reply button below and sound off, just maybe Marvel powers that be may read this thread and somehow redeem themselves.

Issue Stuff (note I already have issue info in the Add/Edit Quickstart page)
issue.title

issue.artist
issue.cover artist
issue.inker
issue.colorist
issue.editor
issue.characters
issue.villains

Series may have been a bad choice of a word but I was thinking of something that sums up an entire comic series

series.brief summary
series.recap of character evolution
series.characters
series.important objects
series.important places

there may be more but that was basically what I was thinking

Ok :) Time for structure.

What properties does a series and issue have?

For example, a car :

car.tires
car.color
car.engine

etc.
