[edit] German Interwiki

I disagree that the German Interwiki is incorrect. The articles do largely contain the same topic. The titles are different but this srticle isn't a description of glosses. 惑乱 分からん * \)/ (\ (< \) (2 /) /)/ * (talk) 00:57, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] History

I would think that a "vocabulary"/glossary of comics should at least mention terms and concepts like "Silver Age", "Golden Age" and some of the genres (not least to note that "Superheroes" isn't it), but would someone like to suggest whether it would be appropriate to include a (very) brief "History of (Modern) Comics" (i.e. 1933, 1938-Superman; 1947-Romance; EC; 1954-Wertham&Code; 1961-Marvel; 1960s-Underground; 1970s-Direct market&Shops; 1980s-Maus/Watchmen/DKR; 1988&1992-Dark Horse&Image; 1990s-Bust) which could then interlink ages, genres and key people without detailing them in an encyclopedic fashion...? ntnon (talk) 14:58, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

I agree Golden Age and Silver Age should be included (with the main entries lined in) but I suspect a history is best done at Comics and American comic books. (Emperor (talk) 17:26, 28 March 2008 (UTC))
