Talk:Necroscope

message: Would this series deserve mention in the article? It is an anime/manga where people called Shamans exhibit pretty similar abilities along the lines of a Necroscope. I know Necroscope doesn't have them constantly battling, but it's still a pretty interesting parable. Tyciol 10:56, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

message: I'll be working on the entry, trying to solve the issues reported. So far I've started to wikify it, and am now working on creating individual pages for each novel.
I'll start by using the available work and avoid deleting previous contributions, except when it repeats itself (part of the Wamphyri section that was also featured word-for-word in the Wamphyri entry, for instance).
Thanks to those who have already contributed, I'll work based on what you've done and not from scratch.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Zahariel (talk • contribs) 
:Cool. You can probably get away with cutting a lot of the stuff out, like the character lists, as they're not very encyclopedic. Good luck! Also, be weary of articles consisting only of plot, see WP:PLOT. Rehevkor ✉ 11:55, 29 April 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Clean-up and individual pages 

message: I made a change to this part of the page.  Penny was Johnny Found's last victim, not first.  His first human victim would be his step-sister.  Also, her death is described as "[s]he was killed when E-Branch declared war on Harry after his vampire reached full ascendency".  To me this kind of sounds like she was killed directly by e-branch.  Does this need a little expansion to say that she died when she opened her eyes when they were about to go through the Gate in Russia, panicked, and fell off the motorcycle onto the electric plates surrounding the gate?

thread_title:  Penny Sanderson entry 

message: Can we get a source that states that a movie is currently in development as stated?  I checked brianlumley.com and the only references to the movie that I can find are years-old discussions.  Also, I checked Evolving Pictures' website and the only information on the movie was a really blurry page that still references the "upcoming role playing game", which I believe came out in '95 and has the list of novels ending at Blood Brothers. Just a tad out of date. Wolfhound668 (talk) 17:39, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Can't seem to find anything beyond some forum posts and that entry on their website (we need something better than that primary source). Last I heard about a Necroscope film it was some kind of fan project. Probably not notable either way. Яehevkor ✉ 18:44, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I finally got around to looking into this some more.  Evolving Pictures seems to have removed the little they had back in January about a Necroscope movie from their page.  I did find some pages (almost all investment pages oddly enough) talking about a partnership with Warner Brothers for Necroscope 4D but nothing on Warner Brothers page or Evolving Pictures' page (who you would think would be shouting a project with Warner Brothers from the rooftops).  I've removed the reference for now. Wolfhound668 (talk) 17:25, 28 August 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Movie in production? 

message: It is mostly correct and much more accurate than the previous selection. Those are some weird excellent books. Even the Titus Crow, a pure feat of imagination. I would have thought they would have been filmed by now. I notice the modern vampires have copied the look from the books.  scope_creepTalk 11:37, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm pretty sure I read the original trilogy back in the 1980s, but I don't know how far I got beyond that.  There are some sources that discuss this stuff in greater detail than I thought, such as The Brian Lumley Companion.  Some of this could be cited to (and fixed according to) that.  Unfortunately, I don't remember any of the more esoteric details, so stuff like the mothers is probably wrong on some pedantic level.  But someone did just recently announce an adaptation.  Is that in the article yet?  I don't think so... NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 12:03, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: It's been misisng detail since it was written. I read the first few books as well around that time. I see there are 19 books now. Wow! Perhaps with a adaption it might increase interest in the article. It's much better condition now.  scope_creepTalk 13:50, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
