I'm not sure if I calculated the values of the first appearances correctly, if it was best to use fine values for Golden Age and very fine for Silver and use the CGC-graded scale. Any insight? Any others that should be on the list? Rorschach567 14:01, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

I think you should note the date that those values were calculated/estimated, because they're certainly subject to change. Without specifying the date, that information will become inaccurate. --JamesAM 05:08, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

Agree with date requirement. Will assume 25 Jan 2006 for now. --Kim Bruning 16:02, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] First appearance is NOT solely comics.

When a cartoon character comes to a cartoon for a first time, it has its first appearance. Same goes to movies and live-action TV shows. So why is this article solely about comic first appearance? NOTE: Leave a message on my talk page. Thanks. TheBlazikenMaster 22:57, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

Please answer me, I have to know. TheBlazikenMaster 13:58, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] This article serves no purpose

Even for a wikicomics page, it is a stretch to create a spawling, unsourced dialog about "first appearances" of characters. There is already an origin story article. I would nominate for deletion, but I've forgotten how and I don't care enough to bother. Johnnyfog 17:15, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
