Got the idea from DarkCrawler's "Comic Questions" thread. Here are a few sites I like for getting information and bios for comic characters. Feel free to add your own, or comment on them.

Marvel Directory:
http://www.marveldirectory.com/xoops/modules/wordbook/

Marvel Handbook (?) (lots of random people...good for obscure Marvel characters):
http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix/appchar.htm

Superhero Encyclopedia:
http://members.tripod.com/~rikmertens/

The Flash (mainly dedicated to the Flash, but has lots of other DC people too):
http://www.hyperborea.org/flash/

It's lacking when it comes to DC people...Superhero Ency. only has a few DC people (and a few Wildstorm/Darkhorse people too) but these can usually help you find almost anyone...especially within the Marvel Universe.

P.S. Please feel free to add other good sites...

Very good site for DC stuff

I like to post links at the start of all my threads so people at least understand who is fighting

Ooooh...the Marvel Directory got a very nice and much deserved renovation...

Always a good idea when possible.

Even though not a ton of people will see this site, hopefully enough people will learn some new sites (like me with SnakeEyes good DC site) that knowledge of these sites can spread, so that uniformed people will have a better outlet for gathering info than posting "Who is Sentry and why the hell can he fight Galactus?" (probably bad example...but that's the idea).

I hate Marvel Directory. It's stagnant and has been out of date for YEARS. Yet people stroke it as though the information within it applies to the current incarnations of Marvel Heroes.

Here are the ones I use most.

Marvel Directory Characters by strength class:

Since Wikipedia has been outlawed as a source for bios in the nest tourney, I though this could use a bump.

spider-man

great idea
hulk: http://www.incrediblehulk.com/

spiderman: http://www.spiderfan.org/
silver surfer: http://marvelite.prohosting.com/surfer/
galactus: http://marvelite.prohosting.com/surfer/galactus/profile.html
Celestials: http://www.geocities.com/brenni_au/Celestials.html ...GREAT SITE FOR ThE CELESTIALS

I'm going to be pinning this thread soon when the tourney starts, because wikipedia is not going to be allowed.

loads of comic stuff...........

Why is wikipedia not allowed?

because the public can edit it at will. Participants could create bios for their characters that give them enhanced powers, extra powers, or to make them just powerful enough to be just under the tourney limits.

I doubt anyone would do that, but I don't want the temptation to be there.

Any Lucifer Morningstar bios?

Like the Marvel Directory, that site is incredibly out of date.

Pitt character bios

spider-man stuff

Thats all I got.

Does anyone know where I can find Pitt's height and weight?

So... should we be using this?
