Title: The Superman Entry
Post by: Super Monkey on March 15, 2005, 11:23:19 AM
It's sad that Superman own entry is the least complete on the site!

Now that I have the book, I can see why, as it is extremely long, and overwhelming!

But I think that if we all team up and tackle it that it will get done, at some point. ;)

One of the problems with the Superman entry is that there is just too much of it.  I think we should consider breaking up all the different sections into separate articles, and maybe just have Superman be a category containing them all.

That sounds like a good idea. But I will let our very own trusty Superman Robot Macduff take care of something like that.

I think the way the Krypton article is shaping up is a good model for this.  There is no reason all the information couldn't be on or accessible from a single page.

Supermonkey, in the time it took me to clumsily transcribe the Clark Kent entry you uploaded the bulk of the Superman entry.  Way to go!

Edit: and then I noticed that Klar Ken had already added the same info to the separate Clark Kent entry. :oops:

Hi, guys. Sorry I've been away for so long, but things have heated up at the office work-wise and I've been helping a buddy of mine with some logo designs for his karate school. But I'm back in the saddle again, and I've been doing some research work on what kind of look I've been wanting to do the characters in. I'm thinking of a combination of the early work of both Curt Swan and Wayne Boring for the style that I'm looking for. What do you guys think?

I loved the entry on Hercules. Being Greek myself, I've always had a special appreciation for the character, and he's my absolute favorite mythological figure (almost on a par with Superman himself).

Catch ya later. :D

With reference to my style change, I thought I'd go with this one. It combines the Curt Swan and Wayne Boring looks, and the colour is much simpler and in line with an animated cell (makes for faster production). Here's Big Blue himself in the new style, with Lois Lane and Hercules waiting in the wings.

Thanks, guys. I think this'll be the style I'll stick to from now on. I've already uploaded the new Supes image to Supermanica and inserted it into the Superman entry.

I been adding things to this entry on and off, though it is quite a task to say the least!

I just finished The Relationship with Lois Lane part and it is quite a read, it is a slightly edited version of what is in the book. It's a fun read to see it all laid out like that :)
