Contested PROD. There is no evidence that the fictional character meets the general notability guideline as there is no significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject about this character. Also, with no reception or significance in reliable secondary sources, it is unsuitable for Wikipedia since it can only be a plot-only description of a fictional work and an indiscriminate collection of information.

- Comment - If not kept, redirect/merge to List of minor DC Comics characters is a better course. Perhapse something that should have been proposed prior to PRODing and then AfDing. - J Greb (talk) 15:20, 16 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Speedy Keep Again an informative article, broken into highly organized legnthy sections, it needs aditional citations, but very salvageble. – Phoenix B 1of3 (talk) 16:30, 21 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge and redirect to List of minor DC Comics characters. Inclusion in The Encyclopedia of Super Villains doesn't confer notability. No reliable sources have been added, and this B-list villain seems unlikely to have coverage significant enough to meet the WP:GNG as anything more than an entry in the list. - The Bushranger One ping only 06:43, 28 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- Merge to List of minor DC Comics characters. I was about to close this as no consensus as I didn't find any of the keep !votes convincing but a merge seems to be a better option. --Ron Ritzman (talk) 00:39, 5 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
