h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I'd forgotten about this Project sorry all.

Everything looks to be well on its way. However -

We need someone to write an Entry about Wonder Woman (perhaps a comic book/Joss Whedon fan).

We've lost our allocated Sub Editor (It was Master B, but he is conspicuous in his absence).

And I've actually got to get off my proverbial donkey and do the Entries I said I would.

MJ

Hmm. I *might* be able to do a Wonder Woman entry, but it would focus on the comic book incarnation, as I only vaguely remember the TV series and there isn't much to say about the movie yet!

David

That would be fab-u-loso! (I was thinking only a brief mention of Linda and the Joss Whedon flick myself - they would probably warrant Entries in their own right )

We've still plenty of time, I reset the deadline for just before Christmas. I've a few other things going on at the moment, but I should be able to get the Marvel ones done. I'm not very knowledgable about DC characters.

Thanks again D.

(Makes it easier to keep this on every page methinks)

Project Title: Comic Book Heroes

A-number of Project Title Page: A5839509

Description of Project: Adding to the already created EG Entries on Comic Book Heroes, focussing on the DC and Marvel popular heroes with the intent of encouraging other Researchers to either assist or add to the project.

Superman entry done and dusted, though with countless editing to be done for sure and many a link to be added. But the actual body of itself is pretty much done and that's a load off my mind. Suggestions, as ever, are feared but welcome.

Looking fab! I'll get working on the other ones as soon as I can really. Other work has come along at the moment, but the Pheonix will rise! (not Jean Grey mind you)

I have now written a first paragraph and some headers for a Wonder Woman entry, in order to shame myself into writing the rest of it!

I know its a lot of work but I'm wondering if someone mightn't do an entry on the Justice League of America, it popped up in my Superman entry somewhat and doubtless it should be in Batman's entry...if not I'll put Batman in as an accomplice though Supe should also go in his methinks.

David - No rush, this Project is a real slow burner...

Tony - If you want to write one about the Justice League, go for it! I was thinking that GL, Flash, Martian Manhunter and even Plastic Man could do with Entries, but a single entry on GL would be almost impossible - seeing as there's so many of 'em! (and the Flash). Nice to mention those heroes without doing a whole huge Entry on them (plus there's an excellent book caled Ultimate JLA I think which is a brill reference tool). This Project will probably be a long time coming, so if you feel up to it then I say yes sir, carry on!

MJ

I am a bit lost I would like to write about an action figure or two but have no idea as to what there is left to write about can you make it obvious to me what i could write about?

How about some British comic book heros? Let's not forget we've made a few, Alan Moore's eponymous V for Vendetta character or perhaps more of a comic book character John Constantine. I'm sure there are a few others, MJ's better to make this decision

Opti - Hi! Nice to see you drop by

There are so many comic book heroes out there you've got oodles to choose from!

At the moment we seem to have the pick of the bunch, but Tony is right, not really any English representatives

I'm keen to steer clear of any Japanese comic characters though, as I believe Manga and Anime is a world of its own

Here's a few suggestions - if any take your fancy let me know:

1. This first lot will probably fit into the Comic Book Heroes Uni Project best theme wise:

The Incredible Hulk (I was going to write this one, but am finding it a bit slow going so might have to just focus on my favourite - Iron Man)

Captain America

Thor

Aquaman

Elektra

The Fantastic Four

Nick Fury & Shield

Black Widow

Green Arrow

2. This next lot are more alternative and lesser known heroes, but still vaild.

Madman

Ghost

Grendel

Captain Britain

Hellblazer (John Constantine)

The Preacher

The Atom

Dr Strange

MoonKnight

Black Panther

Hope that helps

MJ

there are quite a lot here and I don't really know any of them that well except for the incredible hulk and the fantastic four I think I am going to have to consult my bf as to what he thinks and write an entry with him.

Fantastic Four would be a good one, what with renewed interest because of the film

I did have my eye on that one and the incredible hulk cos I know of them and I know the fantastic four is a favourite of my bf's so I'll do the fantastic four if I may

Go for it!

I'm pleased that someone around here (MJ) likes me

What's not to like? You're keen as mustard and probably not as disgustingly yellow as custard. It's all good

Will add you as Researcher for F4 - have fun!

(take a cue from all the other Comic Book Entries if you get stuck for ideas...)

MJ

Thankyou

This Project is being removed from the Uni due to stagnation...

to all involved.
