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 Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

Re-added what I wrote regarding the inconsistencies between the depiction of the Champion in She-Hulk 7-8 and prior published appearances. Will do so as often as necessary. Will accept suggestions for rewording, and would appreciate having the references placed in proper format, but the facts are indisputable. OHOTMUDU#2 describes the power Primordial as an innate part of every Elder of the Universe, and describes him in possession of this power well prior to the Champion's gaining of the Power Gem in Silver Surfer vol 3 # 18. Moreover, the concept of the Infinity Gems did not exist yet both when the Champion was described as in possession of the Power Primordial, nor when the Champion acquired his gem. Prior to Jim Starlin's retcon of the Soul Gems into the Infinity Gems in Thanos Quest #1, there was no "Power Gem" existing as a concept in the Marvel Universe, as it had not been written yet.

She-Hulk #7-8 directly contradicts this, claiming that the Champion's Power Primordial is sourced from the Infinity Gem, and that removing the gem depowers him to the point where "any" of her allies could defeat him. This contradicts prior descriptions of the Power Primordial, as well as the early appearances of the character wherein he possesses the Power Primordial but not the Power Gem. This is a clear inconsistency that I believe deserves to be noted.

Readded it again, shorter and edited to increase neutrality. People keep deleting it, despite proper sourcing. No one has come here to discuss why, or how this information can be added in a way that satisfies people. Will wait for that, and continue to readd as necessary. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.11.31.200 (talk) 15:49, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
