Comic book clichés

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Delete - largely a re-creation of the previously deleted list, this suffers the same issues as that deleted list, along with the various other lists of clichés that have been deleted. Specifically, what constitutes a cliché is irredeemably marred by POV and OR concerns. Otto4711 (talk) 15:34, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Super-delete Although we can all cite plenty of examples of things that happen only in comic books, most of it is going to be original research. Some of the examples were interesting -- the "long unnecessary cape", the "grim and gritty avenger of childhood trauma" and the "ability to speak a paragraph in the time it takes to throw one punch", although most of it seems to be an opinion that so-and-so was the original, and anything thereafter was an imitation.  Nevertheless, this won't be anything more than a bulletin board.   Mandsford (talk) 17:06, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
