I think it makes sense to have this article on DC Comics. The company appeared - or was referred to - in at least two stories. "The Last Earth Prime" story, with Julie Shwartz' and possibly the tale where Curt Swan meets Superman. -- Macduff 22:42, 15 September 2007 (EDT)

I disagree with the entry for the following reasons:

1. I have no problem with non-canonical references being included (spelled out in full) if the character later appeared in canonical works.

2. If we allow references to non-canonical stories, why not let in references to all DC, including Justice League etc. Tons of Justice League is referenced in Superman stories. I still think Black Lightning was a mistake, based on preferences not on guidelines.

3. There are hundreds of 70s and 80s canonical stories not included in Supermanica. I keep thinking that the Bronze Age fans could start on those rather than favorite DC comics from the time period. I don't even like the Bronze Age but I've been trying to enter the stories.

I still think that Supermanica has many hundreds of references to go before entries based on non-canonical sources should be included. - MatterEaterLad
