Talk:Seaguy

"Aquaman-like"
Is Seaguy really that much like Aquaman? Beyond a general aquatic theme, they're not that similar at all, and the suggestion in the article might therefore be a bit misleading. As Cameron Stewart himself says "The only similarity between the two characters is the synonymy of their names. Aquaman is king of Atlantis, can breathe underwater and has all aquatic life at his telepathic command. Seaguy isn't so lucky - he's just a man in a scuba suit."

 * Good quote. I'd say add that in instead to clarify. (Emperor 19:12, 9 December 2006 (UTC))


 * I'm not sure it's needed at all; just removing the Aquaman reference would be enough, I'd guess. It's like saying Iron Man is a "Batman-like" character because they're both rich guys with gadgets. The quote is from the interview linked at the bottom of the article, btw. Kelvingreen 00:44, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

"Silver Age"
I'm not sure about the reference to Seaguy being a rejection of Silver Age comics either ("Morrison has expressed on various occasions that Seaguy represents a deliberate effort to move away from conventions of the "silver age" of comics, "I had the idea to develop Seaguy into a weapon I could use to fight back against the trendy and unconvincing 'bad-ass' cynicism of current comics, most of which are produced by the most un-'bad-ass' men you can possibly imagine"."). The Silver Age is not the era of darkness and cynicism the article's author seems to think it is; he or she is perhaps thinking of the 80's and 90's, as I'm sure Morrison meant. Also, the reference is unsourced. Kelvingreen 00:48, 10 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Yes on a number of occasions he has expressed opinions that he wanted to make superheroes more fun as a lot of modern incarnations are hardbitten and cynical. Its not just the 80s and 90s but continues on today. I think it also includes the idea that quite a fe people writing superheroes today actually dislike them which is a funny old state of affairs. So yes strike out Silver Age - there is no need for an interpretation really as he says it all in the quote. (Emperor 02:00, 10 December 2006 (UTC))
