Talk:Death's Head (G1)

Good call re: "freelance peacekeeping agent"--G.B. Blackrock 03:51, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

Although they are appropriately in the "Apocrypha" section, should Death's Heads 2 and 3 even be here?--G.B. Blackrock 04:57, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

No, they shouldn't be. I have made an appropriate modification. --Steve-o 05:28, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

Freelance peacekeeping agents Cat

While funny, the "Freelance peacekeeping agents" category only has one article. I would vote for moving DH into "Bounty hunters". JW 15:56, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

I'm sure Death's Head would vote against that. And then kill you. --ItsWalky 16:53, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Actually, is there some kind of wiki trick we can use to bounce "Freelance Peacekeeping Agents" to "Bounty Hunters"? Aside from a simple redirect? -hx 17:04, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

I think the cat being a subcat of Bounty Hunters makes that joke quite nicely.--Rosicrucian^Talk 17:06, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

If there's a way to include an article in a category without the category link showing up in the article we could simply make category: freelance peacekeeping agents a redirect. --FortMax 18:00, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

A part of me does indeed want to keep the joke, but when we start suborning basic wiki functionality to support a very minor joke, I have to wonder if it's worth it. JW 18:26, 4 March 2008 (UTC)

Death's Head 3.0

The implication in Death's Head 3.0 is that it's showing the origin of the original Death's Head (and I think Furman confirmed as much when talking about the book at the Bristol Comic Expo a few years back). Should that not reflected either in the bio or the trivia? Danja 12:33, 23 August 2009 (EDT)

I thought he confirmed that they were connected "somehow." The nature of the conenction isn't clear, especially since we know Death's Head's origin. -Derik 13:10, 23 August 2009 (EDT)

I think, and this is going on hazy memories of a few years ago, the implication was that DH 3.0 would gradually upgrade himself into the Death's Head we know, hence the addition of the tusks at the end. Furman said he wanted DH to be using his trademark speech pattern at the end, but was overruled by Marvel, yes? Danja 04:04, 29 August 2009 (EDT)

Indeed.

Incidentally, I'm curious about the use of (G1) as the parenthetical. I suppose it's mostly out of some idea of consistency, but the character is owned and in active use by Marvel (Death's Head proper will be showing up in Marvel's new SWORD series, and DH2 had a cameo in the last issue of Captain Britain). - SanityOrMadness 14:21, 23 August 2009 (EDT)

Yes, but he showed up in a Generation One continuity, meaning in Transformers, he's a G1. Also, I would say any info not pertaining to his Transformers run should be left out or just in a short trivia point USer:Eire 19.31 Aug 23 09(UTC)
