		<description>You&#039;re right about comics universe, which is why I think a Batman/Superman movie would blow people&#039;s minds-- because quite a few of the millions going to see it probably have no concept of a shared universe in fiction, aside from TV spin-offs.

The OH-whatever is a great little resource to find ridiculous and obscure characters like Razorback, but it&#039;s kind of a shame that a fictional universe needs a handbook.

I&#039;m really sorry about your niece, John. My condolences to your family. Hang in there.</description>

		<description>maybe it should be mandatory to read the OHOTMU for comic writers. they would get familiarised with the stories and characters, and there wouldn&#039;t be a need for someone to keep everything straight.</description>

		<description>I find that the OHOTMU books aren&#039;t just a great way to track continuity, but are also fun to read in and of themselves, particularly the entries that encapsulate a single character&#039;s career. I have a completely different outlook on Alicia Masters now, for example, than I did based on the few Fantastic Four stories involving her that I had personally read.

One thing that puzzles me is that, despite the effort that this series (which has &quot;OFFICIAL&quot; written in big letters on it) goes to, many current writers seem ignorant of important facts, from how certain characters&#039; powers work to outright complete stories that featured them. CIVIL WAR was full of such errors. I understand that the comics themselves are the true source, but there&#039;s no excuse for poor research, especially in our Internet-dominated era. You&#039;d think both Marvel and DC would have persons in charge of keeping things straight, but it seems they&#039;re only paying lip-service to continuity for the fans&#039; sake.</description>
