Well, my preference goes to [[Andrea Pazienza]] perhaps, but if you rather like U.S. cartoons, well, I suppose [[Calvin and Hobbes]], [[Doonesbury]] and [[Dilbert]] are my favourites. Not that I am an expert though... --[[User:Nereo Preto|Nereo Preto]] 08:32, 21 August 2007 (CDT)

Welcome and comics

Hi Stefano, welcome to CZ... Are you going to start some articles on american (or even non american) comics? If so, let me know - I love the topic, and though I can't be said to be a technical expert, I'd might like to contribute. Ciao! --Nereo Preto 06:45, 21 August 2007 (CDT)

Ciao Nereo, and thanks for welcoming me. As soon as I'm done with my current goal (writing stubs until all links in the current Rome drafts turn blue), I do plan on starting a comics-related article. Have you got anything in mind? There appears to be only one comics-related article on CZ yet, and that would be Batman, but it's too large a subject to tackle right now. I'd rather start with something a bit smaller. Anything you'd prefer? --Stefano Bartoletti 08:28, 21 August 2007 (CDT)

I've just realised there is a significant problem about covering comics in Citizendium: the fact that fair use images are currently forbidden. As it stands, this means that no comics illustration can be used unless the publisher gives specific permission for each and every image, and that's obviously unrealistic. They're apparently in the process of elaborating a fair use policy for CZ, so I'm thinking the first thing to do is to speed up that process. --Stefano Bartoletti 00:57, 22 August 2007 (CDT)
