List

Perhaps a list of authors or works could be added. 69.19.14.29 03:56, 4 July 2007 (UTC) (OverMyHead; though my browser and connection are cooperating to not let me stay signed in to my account. I can't even check my watchlist.)[reply]

Re: Dr. Identity

It appears that the addition of Dr. Identity as a seminal work of splatterpunk is just an advertisement. The novel was only published this year and is much more typical of science fiction. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Markmywords85 (talkcontribs) 17:30, 4 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Beg pardon?

"Antiheroes are more prevalent than crucifix-bearing Abraham Van Helsing of early horror fiction...."

Does this mean that Abraham Van Helsing only appears occasionally in splatterpunk works? Or does it mean that antiheroes appear in splatterpunk less frequently than Abraham Van Helsing did in early horror fiction? Or does it mean something else altogether that I just don't get (perhaps as a result of my being marginalized, alienated, drug-prone and generally anti-social?) Will someone familiar with the subject please clear up this ambiguity? I'd take a shot at it myself, but I fear that I'm now less knowledgeable about splatterpunk than I was before I read this article. I guess that, like Van Helsing seeking to destroy vampires, we who venture to find information on Wikipedia all have our little crucifixes to bear. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.128.43.235 (talk) 01:23, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cyberpunk

Why is this listed as being in the Cyberpunk portal? I see very little connections between the two genres.
