Talk:List of alien races in Marvel Comics

message: Should Deviants, Eternals, and Inhumans be listed here? Dr Archeville 20:14, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Deviants, Eternals and Inhumans

message: *Some of the races listed in this section do not strike me as being major enough. Example: The Badoon conquered Earth in ONE alternate reality, and that's it. (And it's amazing they succeeded when The Kree and the Skrull have failed so often.) 
*The Celestials and Beyonders are more groups of cosmic beings than true races (but that's debatable.)
*The Elders are not a single race, either.
*The Phalanx are a subset of the Technarchy and shouldn't be listed separately.
*The Space Phantoms aren't that significant either.

thread_title: Major Races

message: I think we should insert (brief) comments on ALL the entries here, even the ones with their own articles. The idea is that the article gets to stand better on its own, especially for research purposes. Example: Acanti- whale-like aliens that live in the vacuum of space. See Acanti. Fist appearance: X-Men #156. Mention of major characters might be added as well. Ex: Axi-Tun- Home race of the first Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. First seen in Invaders #1 & Giant-Size Fantastic Four #3.

message: * I wasn't entirely sure how much of a role they've played, but looking at the www.marvunapp.com entry they've been important to five diffent storylines (mostly the whole "celestial madonna" thing) across several different titles - and seem likely to appear again. Worth keeping, but the article may need work? --Mrph 08:00, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

message: * Tricky. It's one of the more detailed articles, perhaps because they're a more recent addition to the Marvel Universe - but I believe they've only appeared twice (Excalibur & Starjammers), although both appearances were fairly important to those stories. Also, although Warren Ellis, who created them, is back with Marvel, they're unlikely to reappear since that Starjammers story killed them all...? --Mrph 08:00, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

I'm not sure if that's vandalism or an actual race. Never can tell. Untill it's verified, however, I'm going to remove it. ~ Wakanda's Black Panther! (contribs) 07:10, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

message: :Image:Exc90.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Exc90.jpg

message: It hadn't really occurred to me until now, but they probably do deserve inclusion here - Marvel's version of the classic War of the Worlds martians have now appeared in various places, including Killraven (the obvious one), the Wisdom miniseries and a few other places. There have also been references to them in other stories, such as the Counter-X X-Force run. I'd say it's definitely worth adding them here, but they might(?) also deserve an article of their own, as they're now distinctly different from the H.G. Wells version that inspired them. Opinions? --Mrph (talk) 19:19, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

message: There is one beyonder who did, in fact, enter the main Marvel Universe and interact with its inhabitants. Two entire "Secret Wars" story arcs dealt with this occurrence.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.247.178.128 (talk) 20:15, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
