Clark or Clarc?[edit]

Umm...in the Superman's Metropolis paragraph, Kent's name starts as Clark but then changes to Clarc. I haven't read this comic so I don't know which is right. Would someone who's read this comic fix it please?

Split?[edit]

I have proposed splitting the sequels off into their own sections. JMLofficier has provided more than enough information for each mini-series and they'd all be solid entries on their own. I'd be happy to do the splitting. (Emperor 18:24, 14 January 2007 (UTC))[reply]

Absolutely, go ahead, do what you think best, but if you do three pages, there will be need to change or create new links to all the myriad places that link to that trilogy only as "Superman's Metropolis" notwithstanding whether it's about Batman, Wonder Woman, etc, e.g.: the Wiki page on Nosferatu has a link to Superman's Metropolis, not Batman: Nosferatu, etc. Regarding the images, I could scan the covers of each book at 72 dpi, but where do I send them? Finally, the trivia about a 4th part comes from me, I do have a proposal written, but it's unlikely to ever happen. JMLofficier 12:57, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for sourcing it - I should have spotted it when I was nosing around but missed it. You are right about the linking and I'll go back through the "what links here" and double check (although it'd be worth other people double checking). Also thanks for the addition of the ISBNs for the trades. I just couldn't find them (if no collected volumes then a reprint would be nice - if DC are reading this) and I added the Wonder Woman one in too but the ISBN recognition system doesn't seem to like it (it happens occasionally - not sure why).

The split has been done and this has allowed me to add in other categories for the specific main character. Also note I have used pipes to get the character list more in line with the names of the charcaters in the story (although linking through to the entries on the main character they are based on) as this seems to have caused confusion (see the section above and a number of other edits) - this will need more of an edit I suspect. In an hour or so I'll go through and make sure the incoming links are all pointing to the right entries (I'll adjust List of Elseworlds publications now though as that seems the main one).
