Elephant in the Room[]
What are we doing with this page? How are we going to link the appearances to all these stories? --- Haroldrocks talk 01:25, January 16, 2014 (UTC)
- I wasn't entirely sure how to do it for these either, but here's what I did.
- I used Prime Earth on the "Case of the Chemical Syndicate" under the assumption that it's either a just-for-fun retelling of the original Detective Comics #27 story, or a retelling of the story for the current continuity (and may or may not be a Joker origin...?)
- I used Earth-One for "Old School" because that is over-all what the majority of the character designs and style come from, despite spanning several eras. It's obviously a metafictional take, and not in-continuity. So, perhaps it shouldn't be tagged as Earth-One.
- "Better Days" is a possible future. So, either we need "Better Days" pages, or we use Prime Earth. I used Prime Earth.
- "Hero/Rain" is obviously a coda for Batman: The Black Mirror, but it appears to be retrofitted for Prime Earth continuity, so I used that.
- "The Sacrifice" seems to be set on Prime Earth, so, no big deal.
- "Gothtopia" is set on Prime Earth. Spoiler(ish), it seems to be all a mass-hallucination, so far.
- "Twenty-Seven" is another possible future, so it would be the same as "Better Days" with either its own continuity, or just ignoring it. I didn't bother to tag it at all, since they're all clones, and nobody else is named...
- Also, I decided to call the Pin-ups a "story" so that I could appropriately tag them without adding appearance code. I don't know how anyone else feels about that, but I think it works decently.
- All in all, pretty awkward.- Hatebunny (talk) 22:00, February 11, 2014 (UTC)
