Talk:Union Jack (Marvel Comics)

WWI - bulletproof costumer?

Is it ever mentioned how the WWI version of Union Jack could have a bulletproof costume when such things as Kevlar were yet to be invented?

Union Jack II - gay?

Where exactly is it mentioned in that Gay League profile that Union Jack II was gay? i question the validity of that Gay League link and page.--Basique 23:22, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Read it again, the reference is understated just has the relationship in the comics has been understated. The reference and the category are legit. Mallanox 10:08, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

Writer Fabian Nicieza who used Roger Aubrey for several storylines in Thunderbolts stated that Brian and Roger were lovers on the Thunderbolt message board.

There's been enough references both within the comics and by the creators. It's not a matter of "possibility", it's fact until the continuity is intentionally changed. Read the "The New Invaders: To End All Wars" trade paperback if you still have any doubts. Lucky number 49 20:29, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Some relevant panels have just appeared on the Livejournal.com scans_daily community. Read the dialogue and make your own judgements. If it's still a point of contention here, we can always quote the line word-for-word and let Wikipedia readers make their own judgements. --Mrph 23:54, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Infobox picture

The infobox is about James and Brian Falsworth, because Joey Chapman has a seperate entry. But the image is of Chapman, isn't it? Daibhid C (talk) 19:49, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

This article is about all 3 Union Jacks so an image of Joseph Chapman isn't unreasonable. Personally I'd be happy to see a picture of an earlier incarnation if someone is interested in seeking one out. (Emperor (talk) 23:35, 10 November 2008 (UTC))

Iron Man 2 bit - pretty sure that was 'G Chapman' on the drivers list not J... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.128.17.74 (talk) 06:45, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

Why does one reincarnation of Union Jack have a separate article?, would it not be clearer and less confusing to have a single article that represents the Union Jack character as a whole. ChefBear01 (talk) 07:54, 23 November 2021 (UTC)

Merger proposal

The Union Jack (Joseph Chapman) character has no notability outside of the context of the "Union Jack" costumed identity. As of now, the page is almost nothing but a far too intricate plot dump. That's mostly what this page consists of, too. All three characters need their plots trimmed significantly, and some real-world context added. There's certainly no reason for any of the three to have their own article, separate from this one. -Fandraltastic (talk) 04:21, 2 February 2013 (UTC)

Joey has some potential, because he has starred in multiple self-titled series, and recurring roles in more than one other series. I think this is a case where it just needs some more work. 24.12.74.21 (talk) 02:01, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

I agree with the anonymous contributor above me. Joseph Chapman's article needs more work to make it notable. Rtkat3 (talk) 10:59, March 1 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, it all needs work, but I don't see why the two miniseries can't be covered on this page. The characters are all three relatively minor and only really notable in the context of the "Union Jack" identity, not on their own merits. -Fandraltastic (talk) 18:39, 1 March 2013 (UTC)

Still, the person who originally split Joseph Chapman from the Union Jack page probably needed to have more information on him to be covered on a separate page. Rtkat3 (talk 4:58, April 25 2013 (UTC)

The first two UJs are relatively minor characters, whilst Joseph Chapman has appeared in a wide range of titles including two eponymous series. There is also plenty of room for expansion, not just in the publication history section (could flesh it out with the interviews linked in) but you could also have a reception section for the series, drawing on the reviews I've linked in. In this regard it is pretty much like a lot of notable comic articles - as they push on to a C and B grade, they need the in-universe material trimmed back, and the out-of-universe material expanding (of which there is enough to make a start). I've been a bit scarce around these parts recently (hence my being a little late to this discussion), but it is on my list of things to do, but my first round of research is on the article if someone wants to crack on with it. So, yes, I agree with other comments - I have no concerns over his notability, but it could be demonstrated more comprehensively, so there is no need to merge the two articles. Emperor (talk) 03:51, 26 January 2015 (UTC)

This can probably be closed since it has been two years, but for what it's worth I agree with Emperor. BOZ (talk) 06:07, 26 January 2015 (UTC)
