[edit] Hypertime reality for Earth-C?

From what I recall, right after Crisis on Infinite Earths, DC declared that Earth-C (and, apparently, Earth-C-Minus) was "really" an alterate "dimension", and not parallel Earth; hence, it didn't get destroyed by Crisis and still exists (though just unvisited for many years now)...

Still, given that the Zoo Crew's origin relies in part on the pre-Crisis Earth-One Superman, I suppose there might well be *two* versions of Earth-C out there... the pre-Crisis one that's an actual parallel Earth, with the Earth-One Superman involved in the team's origin (this would be the version that'd be a Hypertime reality), and the post-Crisis "alternate dimension" that hasn't really been shown, and presumably has a post-Crisis origin for the Crew (one that either didn't involve Superman or happened as we saw in the first issue, but adjusted for the post-Crisis Superman's power levels...).

The indication that the Parallel Earth rather than an Alternate Earth requires a citation. It is not direct, but the idea is indicated on this page http://www.dcindexes.com/planet/index.php?issue=66, and possible others I have yet to find. Would this be enough to provide a proper citation? --RedKnight (talk) 00:25, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Captain Carrot's Original Creator

As a note to this website, it's creator, and to the creators of the Zoo Crew, While in Grade 9 (1969) I created the cartoon superheros, Super Pea & Captain Carrot. Their mission was to promote healthy eating among children. Both Super Pea & Captain Carrot preceded the introduction of Captain Carrot & His Amazing Zoo Crew. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Whitney Pier (talk • contribs) 17:56, 11 February 2007 (UTC).

To W. Pier: Without prior publication, such claims are worthless. Be hopeful that your recent endeavors using the (likely trademarked) name remain under the radar of DC Comics/Warner Bros. 64.111.226.78 23:18, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] What is a "proishanimal property"?

In the intro it says these were the last "proishanimal property"? Is that some typo, or what does it mean? --AW 19:03, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] A minor point!

I'm not sure if you are aware, but the exclaimation point in the title is NOT OPTIONAL. It should be correctly shown as "Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew!" During the 20 issure run of the title, it was only left off once -- and that was regarded as a mistake by the printer. Think of it as akin to writing "Jeopardy!" -- when referring to the game show.

I believe the same is the case of the name co-creator Scott Shaw! 64.111.226.236 (talk) 22:27, 26 November 2007 (UTC)
