Talk:Kabuki (David W. Mack comic)

whoah, how many powder faced female half Japanese 'torn-between-two-worlds-inner-conflict-leading-to-rebellion' rogue ninjassasssins are there? Shi would it be worth mentioning how incredibly similiar Kabuki's title character is to Shi?


Two things: Shouldn't the plot say about the scar that reads "Kabuki" (and maybe the relationship it induces with the mask)? And shouldn't the article say this is a Cyberpunk work? (if only by the fact that the mask has screens in the eyes, that should be enough.)--SidiLemine 13:02, 2 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Second question: No, it just makes it sf. Cyberpunk is a much more specific subgenre revolving around people like William Gibson and Bruce Sterling. The main focus is on the internet ("cyberspace") and its impact on people and society. What you suggest is a bit like saying Terminator is a Cyberpunk work. Incidentally, the eyes are explicitly said to give her Terminator-vision (just thought I'd mention that). ZarhanFastfire (talk) 08:40, 27 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Tell me more about this "Shi" person. Maybe Mack was influenced by it.(LonerXL (talk) 01:47, 24 September 2008 (UTC))[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Kabuki-SkinDeep.jpg[edit]

Image:Kabuki-SkinDeep.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Publishing History[edit]

This article needs to include a more detailed publishing history. The first sentence of the article refers to the London Night Studios, Caliber and Icon versions of Kabuki but this comic has also been published by Dark Horse and by Image Comics. In fact the Dark Horse version can still be purchased from their website. The Image comics version is mentioned in a list at the bottom of the page and I have added the article to the Dark Horse Comics category.
