Two different versions of "DC Implosion" story[edit]

The story on this page of why the implosion occurred doesn't match the story on the DC Implosion page. Even the name of the corporation that owned DC at the time is different.

If I had to guess, I would speculate that National Periodical Publications owned DC during the Explosion, and that Warner later bought DC and then ordered the Implosion. That would be a clever way of merging the facts on these two pages. But of course that's just my speculation.

If someone knows the truth, can this be clarified on both pages? — Lawrence King (talk) 13:05, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge proposal[edit]

It seems to me that the DC Implosion and Cancelled Comic Cavalcade are inextricably linked subjects, and much of the information between the two articles is already duplicated (inconsistently). Combining the two articles would eliminate that duplication and hopefully ensure that the inconsistencies are ironed out. - JasonAQuest (talk) 16:41, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree - they make two thin articles but could make a pretty solid single article. I'd say merge Cancelled Comic Cavalcade into DC Implosion, as it deals with the aftermath of the implosion. (Emperor (talk) 17:01, 13 March 2008 (UTC))[reply]
Seconded. And then hopefully the inconsistencies could be ironed out. -- Stoshmaster (talk) 01:51, 17 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Disagree, the Cancelled Comics Cavalcade is a comic book title, the DC Implosion is an event, you can refer to one in the other, but combining them makes no sense. --Xero (talk) 23:15, 19 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Agree with Merger. The DC Explosion as much of - maybe even more of - an event as The Implosion doesn't have its own page, why does the Implosion need one? Everything can be happily covered in the Cancelled Comics Cavalcade page with a simple redirect. Duggy 1138 (talk) 08:26, 28 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Agree with merger The merger should be done under DC Implosion which is the most used term by far. Comics Cavalcade is just a collection of cancelled comics and never reached the public since it wasn't intended to. As such its importance as a comic is entirely subordinate to the Dc Implosion. --Leocomix (talk) 19:35, 1 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Virus in a reference?[edit]

External links: Michael Grabois' Cancelled Comic Cavalcade fan site (link to virus-equipped site removed). References: ^ Grabois, Michael. "The Deserter," Cancelled Comic Cavalcade fan page (Sept. 7, 1995). Accessed Oct. 26, 2008. Oh dear. The reference seems to be the same site. This could pose a problem, I would recommend that another reference is found pronto, as that link will also have to be removed. I daren't click on it in case it does indeed contain a virus. That's also why I only copied the raw text, not the actual link. Digifiend (talk) 21:44, 1 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
