Snarf

I think the dates on Snarf must be wrong. It didn't come out over a 20 year period. Please check if you can. ike9898 13:09, 16 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Canada and U.S.

First region in article used to be North America (see oldid=445037656). First region in article now is "U.S.", but includes Drawn & Quarterly which is Canadian (all the others seem to be U.S.). Split Drawn & Quarterly into a Canada section, or switch the first region in article back to North America? (I suggest going for a Canada section). --EarthFurst (talk) 09:00, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Manga

I think Japanese manga magazines should be mentioned here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.216.189.189 (talk) 14:21, 17 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Difference with Comic book ?

Those two articles seems quite similar to me. Shouldn't they be fused, or the meaning of "comics anthology" be shortened to books/magazine containing comics by various authors (often short stories)? Kokonino (talk) 18:18, 8 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think I got it; comics anthologies are periodicals or books containing different comics stories by various authors. Shouldn't then the introduction by changed? "Comics anthologies collect works in the medium of comics that are too short for standalone publication." isn't very clear. Kokonino (talk) 06:26, 9 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If "various authors" is the distinction, then I agree it should be added. I don't know enough about the subject to say whether it is... but you could just be bold and try adding it. --Walnuts go kapow (talk) 07:38, 9 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I have just been too bold on Wikidata, as Andreasmperu may testify

So I wouldn't like to rush it here. I'll wait until the end of the month for other comments. Kokonino (talk) 15:18, 9 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
