Talk:Joe Madureira

Image

According to Wikipedia:WikiProject Comics/copyright, "All fair use images must be used as a part of a commentary on the material in question; it is not acceptable to use fair use images for mere decoration." The current use of the image Image:Bc3.jpg does not qualify this, as there is no discussion of this particular image or his Battle Chasers artwork in general in the article (there is hardly anything on any of his artwork.) So, for now, it should not be included. --Fritz S. (Talk) 18:58, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

Original Research?

"his popular work lead to a new interest in Japanese entertainment in the U.S." this definately needs to be sourced.--Fritz S. (Talk) 11:20, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

I propose to put a link towards a gallery of various variant covers of Joe Madureira. This is the link : http://abcovers.free.fr/index.php?option=com_ponygallery&Itemid=26&func=viewcategory&catid=29 Do you think this is appropriate?Kaperni | Talk 16:58, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

The link seems completely useless to me given that the one page currently linked in the article, JoeMAdFan.com, already has all those covers and many more; in a higher resolution and without the watermarks that is. And it's ad-free, too. So, if you ask me, I don't think the link should be included. --Fritz S. (Talk) 17:05, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

stop plugging your site. for god's sake, you have the same handle there as on wikipedia. no, it's *not* appropriate. Exvicious 08:54, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

First work

According to the entry, Madureira's first published work is this story starring Northstar in Marvel Comics Presents: http://www.comics.org/issue/50499/

  However, this story starring Mojo was drawn by him and published three issues earlier in the same series: http://www.comics.org/issue/50419/  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.50.90.69 (talk) 12:35, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

Darksiders?

Wouldn't he be more known for Darksiders than Uncanny X-men? Darksiders is getting pretty big as a franchise now, with millions of copies sold, Uncanny X-Men is big too, but he was just one of many artists that worked on that, it would seem he's more notable for the Darksiders universe than the Uncanny X-Men, after all he did create the four horsemen characters, and was one of the two founders of the studio that created Darksiders,(Vigil Games), along with overseeing most of the first two games development, not to mention he created most of the Darksiders I and II universe.

"Joe Madureira (often called Joe Mad,[1][2] born December 1974) is a comic book writer/artist and game developer, best known for his work on Marvel Comics' Uncanny X-Men and his creator-owned comic book Battle Chasers."

Wouldn't it make more sense to put, "best known for his work on Darksiders, Uncanny X-men and his creator owned comic Battle Chasers."?

Joe Madureira is Portugese

Thanks for adding that bit. However, there was no reason to remove the citation supporting his date of birth. Also, the tweet your cited makes no mention of his parents, so I removed that portion of your edit. Thanks again. Nightscream (talk) 15:46, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

There was a previous entry that mentioned he has an Azorean Father and American Mother, the source that this was taken from doesn't exist, but it's not difficult to assume that the person who added this entry was accurate. (Whoever the person was that added it). A majority of Portuguese-Americans are actually Azoreans, especially from California, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island. Every notable Portuguese American that I can think of is Azorean or has Azorean heritage. Like Pat Toomey / Al Gore (politicians) Steve Perry / Katy Perry (lead singers), Tom Hanks (actor), Pete Souza (Presidential photographer) and J.G. Quintel (cartoonist) for example. "Portuguese" is generally a broader term that's used for Portuguese Azorean Americans, when no one has established what their exact lineage is. If you google "Madureira Azorean" you get a wiki entries with secondary sources that mentions this, the article where the source itself comes from, <ref> https://www.cbr.com/year-of-the-artist-day-329-joe-madureira-part-1-marvel-comics-presents-89-and-92/ <ref> is no longer available, but I'm sure it was a primacy source. Again it's very, very likely that the previous entry is accurate and that he is an Azorean. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.189.4.21 (talk) 16:48, 7 July 2021 (UTC)
