- It is reasonably well written.
- a (prose): b (MoS):
Minor:
- "alien invasions movies" — Can you make "invasions" singular (in this instance and in the later one)? Reads less awkwardly IMO.
- "writing supporting novels in establish franchises" — Should be "established".
- "like Star Wars and Dune." — I think "like" should be replaced with "such as", "including", or something else that sounds less casual.
- "which noted flat characterization but that it may be entertaining for comic book fans." — Insert "stated" or some variant after "but".
- [4] I re-worked this sentence a little.
- The revision included a typo ("being be"), and was a tad awkward, so I restored the previous version, as I may have been too hard on it.
- Why is Colorado mentioned? I didn't grasp the significance.
- Context. Book-articles include country of origin ("United States" & "American"), but if possible I try to mention something more specific.
- "His latest novels in the Dune series were. . ." — "Dune" should be italicized, as it is earlier.
- "Anderson commented on the difficulty in writing comics as prose, 'in the comics. . .' " — Can you insert "stating" or some variant after "prose"?
- "Year One-style Batman" — "Year One" should be in quotation marks.
Bigger:
- The "Background" section could begin with another brief overview of the novel (just above "At the time of publication. . ."). The beginning reads like a continuation of the lead, rather than an introduction to the article.
- [8] Is this something like what you had in mind?
- The suspicion between Batman and Superman, mentioned in the lead, could be noted again (particularly on Batman's part).
- It is factually accurate and verifiable.
- a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
- It is broad in its coverage.
- a (major aspects): b (focused):
- It follows the neutral point of view policy.
- Fair representation without bias:
- It is stable.
- No edit wars, etc.:
- It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
- a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
- Overall:
- Pass/Fail:
- Pass/Fail:
- Thanks for the review. I have included comments and links above to the fixes. maclean (talk) 03:10, 30 July 2011 (UTC)
