[edit] Immortal killed?

Powers say immortal, text say she died. A contradiction?-- _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk}  16:10, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

I don't really see what the big deal is about the immortality thing. Angela is immortal in the same sense that Highlanders are immortal: they will live forever unless killed in a very specific way. Granted, one loop hole I've noticed in the comic is that they are heavy to emphasize that an Angel can only be killed by decapatation (see Spawn and Cog's discussion after Spawn "killed" Tiffany.) Angela was not beheaded (she was impaled by Malebolgia with her own spear), so did she really die? Regardless, the "immortality" label is a question of semantics: does immortality mean can never die, or can never die by natural means?

Perhaps the label indefinite lifespan would be more appropriate?

[edit] Intercompany Crossovers?

Were Glory/Angela and/or Aria/Angela actually intercompany crossovers, as the articles states? As far as I know Aria has always been an Image character. Glory, on the other hand, had a brief stint as an Awesome comics and Avatar Press character, but what company was Glory/Angel printed under? I think it was Image. Check these out:

• Rage of Angles
• Angels in Hell

Good point, but the problem lies elsewhere: crossover is a disambig listing only Intercompany crossover as relevant to comics. Perhaps we should replace that link with the one to crossover (comics) (which redirects currently to Fictional crossover)?-- _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk}  02:25, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Other Hellspawn slayers

The Other Hellspawn slayers section is getting a little bit out of hand, especially since it's duplicated in the Tiffany page, which mean any edits need to be duplicated in two articles. Perhaps a "Hellspawn slayer" page would be more appropriate? It would clear up the Angela and Tiffany pages, and it could still link to individual pages, as well as give more detailed information on lesser-known Hellspawn slayers. Any objections/thoughts?

I think the best idea would be to move it into the Characters section in Spawn (comics). --Fritz S. (Talk) 20:51, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

True, that would probably make more sense than having the list in two different pages, but I think the Spawn (comics) page is gretting pretty bloated and unfocused as well. It seems to jump back and forth between the comic itself and the character. But that's a whole different problem... What I proposed in that discussion page was to split that article into two seperate articles, one about the comic and one about the character. But, either way, I think it would be better to move the list into the main spawn page, at least for now.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Angela hunter.jpg

Image:Angela hunter.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. 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 Wikipedia: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. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
