Talk:Guy Gardner (character)

message: Coul it possibly be,Guardner ist named after Billy GUY and Carl GARDNER from the 50ties and 60ties Band The Coasters? It seems hardly coincidential that those names appear adjacent to one another... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.142.234.27 (talk • contribs) 12:02, 29 December 2005

message: Do we know for a fact that Ganthet offered the last ring to Guy first? My interpretation of that story was that Guy was simply bragging to his guests at Warriors and that this might not actually be true. Then again, I could be wrong. Thoughts? Rajah1 07:41, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Unsure who is editing the tense of the article into the present, but I took the time to correct the grammar. Please explain here if you have issue with my edits, because the edits I've made are in keeping with good composition.Arcayne 05:20, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Editing for Grammar

message: Comic book articles are supposed to deal in present tense, as they are fiction.
Example 'Superdude runs to the Washington Monument and saves Reporter Lady from Fish-Head'. Not 'Superdude ran to the Washington Monument and saved Reporter Lady from Fish-Head'. Lots42 14:58, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I am sorry, I am not sure to what you are referring. Could I ask you to cite that part of the MOS for comic books that iterates that? As well, if I changed the verb tense, it was quite likely that the grammar was weaker and inconsistently used. - Arcayne (cast a spell) 15:12, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

I'd do the magic HTML to directly link to the part about 'present tense' but I am lacking in that skill. I had to do a text find for 'present tense'.
P.S. I understand that the grammar in general was most likely subpar.

message: I think there should be more information about Guy's 'Warriors' club. His life and times there were very important to him, not to mention a whole bunch of other superheros. Supergirl, Fire, Phantom Stranger, all the heros who came by to visit. It was where Arisa's wake was held. 
Also, all the Warriors staff who became Guy's friends and didn't have anything to do with the JLA. I'd add all this info myself but the last time I did it was deleted.

message: There is a line at the end of the Warrior book:
However, this new direction only lasted for 30 issues of Guy Gardner: Warrior (which crossed over in the Way of the Warrior with Justice League America and Hawkman featuring cameos of Lobo and former-Green Lantern Probert) and his many several appearances over a span of ten years.
However, this is confusing as it implies that the new direction of Warrior after he was revived in Superman lasted for 30 issues of Warrior, but that series was over before the whole Death of Guy as part of the Worlds at War series. Sgetz (talk) 17:32, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
