Copyright?[edit]

That second paragraph is almost entirely from the second paragraph of a Comics Journal review for "Don Simpson's Bizarre Heroes #11," which can be found here:

http://www.tcj.com/2_archives/r_De2Du.html

The text is copied almost entirely verbatim. Shouldn't there be a quote and an attribution? Original review was by Paul Warlde, from TCJ #178. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 144.92.226.162 (talk) 01:38, 1 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Needs clarification[edit]

RE: "Drawing since the age of five, Simpson was encouraged by artists James Malone and Keith Pollard, among others." I find it hard to believe that James Malone, Keith Pollard and others were encouraging the child Simpson. Perhaps Simpson was influenced by them, but that's something else entirely. Unless a passage from the offline cited source can be added in a "quote=" field, this sentence is too vague and confusing to be encyclopedic and should be removed.--Tenebrae (talk) 13:05, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
