 * Not finding too much: -
 * https://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/industry-news/comics/article/70589-the-best-cyberpunk-comics-part-1.html - passing listicle mention
 * https://www.comicsbeat.com/preview-fluorescent-black-by-nathan-fox-and-m-f-wilson/ mainly a press release
 * http://legacy.aintitcool.com/node/46094#15 isn't too bad
 * https://www.cbr.com/nathan-fox-on-haunt-joe-casey-and-teaching/ bit about discussion with creator
 * On the fence really. 3, 4 and the Hollywood Reporter link in the article would lean me towards weak keep but it really would be a stretch. BoomboxTestarossa (talk) 19:20, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete Unfortunately subject has no viable third-party coverage. The sources provided here (with much thanks to the user) are all barely-passable niche sites, as were the results of a Google search. Given that the comic lasted only two years and ended back in 2010, I don't see this improving anytime soon. sixty nine   • whaddya want? •  19:27, 31 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep. I think we have enough for WP:GNG.
 * 81 word review in Minneapolis Star Tribune
 * French language review, professional writer on site w/ professional editorial staff
 * in-depth review with a named by-line, on "Flamesrising.com", seems to be a semiprozine with an editorial staff
 * Some coverage from MTV, along with an interview

 * Comment The subject seems notable to me, but when I searched for better English-language sources, I could find none. Some may exist, but they weren't available upon a short search that included Google Scholar. However, one of the sources that Siroxo, the one in French, may establish some notability. Its "a propos de bodoi" page lists what appears to be a chief editor. Could someone fluent in French give it a closer look? Darkfrog24 (talk) 21:12, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Keep per Siroxo. Randy Kryn (talk) 11:58, 10 September 2023 (UTC)
