Talk:Spit! (comics)

message: :Image:Spit.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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Spit.jpg

message: The single paragraph that this article consists of, is almost exactly the same (the name is changed!), as the article for Zit comic! I read both, in their day. The article here is inaccurate, Spit was different in tone from early Zit. It had a more cheerful, silly voice, with a bit of self-denigration in it. The strips weren't particularly sex-filled.
Anyway, it's a shame more isn't available on it. There must be boxes of old copies in the UK's comic shops, somewhere. It deserves an article, but this one here is completely pointless. It's a lift of Zit's article, and it's completely wrong.
Was the only source Chris Donald's book "Rude Kids"? I've read that, too. But it's not a suitable source for this article. "Spit" is mentioned in perhaps 2 sentences, solely to do with Zit's publisher's fatuous court case.

thread_title:  Terrible article 

message: Hi. I added a paragraph about my work for Spit! back in the 90s (I was the author/illustrator of Sefton Ward: Paranormal Detective and Nero Ramone: Porno Star turned Hitman)...hope what I wrote doesn't come off as too long-winded or self-aggrandising. I'm honestly not very au fait with how Wikipedia is edited, so I apologise for any clumsiness in advance. If need be, please feel free to edit my contribution where necessary to make it more aligned with Wikipedia's expected standards.
On a personal note: I must say, I'm a little surprised that there's not more to this article. Though the subject matter was, yes, quite crude in places (*he says awkwardly looking down at his own feet! haha*) there were, all the same, some good artists working on the comic, so it's a shame that more of them don't get a mention as I, for one, would love to know what the other guys are up to these days. By the way, this is the first time I've heard about the lawsuit against Spit! from Zit comic... hmm... I wonder whether this was after my exit? (I worked for Spit! between 96-97)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7D:4A2E:BB00:55F2:7041:8670:5B57 (talk) 07:02, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
