    Something I'd like to see, is an ongoing tally/list of what cities, nations, countries what-have-you that have been destroyed in the HB/BPRDverse.
    I'm glad that it's being appreciated, thanks. I would also like to point out that 'SirEdwardGrey' on the wiki site is doing a lot of work. I'm sure that there is one with the same username around this board. It's a shame that the admin of the wiki hasn't been around for a while, his last edit was a year and a half ago.

    Jr. Wormwood, sounds like a good idea. I'm focusing on improving the story pages and character profiles first before I get into other additional pages but if you want to create one go for it.

    Good plan!

    Any objections to some of us working it out in this thread? Here's what I have so far:

    Lincoln, Nebraska
    Munich, Germany
    Seattle, Washington (partly?)
    Houston, Texas
    London, England
    Borneo, Indonesia
    Sulawesi, Indonesia
    Eastern Malaysia
    Brunei
    Niland (Salton Sea), California
    Rampayedik, Russia

    Anyone know if this is all correct or if I'm missing anything?
    I'll have to go through the comics and attach issue numbers to each of these incidents.

    Thanks, Horror of Sorts! There is now a Hellboy wiki I am proud to consult and refer burgeoning Hellboy fans to.

    The thing I would really like to see with that wiki is for the movie stuff become secondary to the comic throughout the site, especially on the front page.

    I've just created pages for most of the B.P.R.D. stories and started them off but the summaries are mainly just the blurbs from the individual issues at the Dark Horse website. I'm hoping people contribute to these summaries and help make the pages more detailed.
    I've also added colorist, letterer and editor to the summary boxes as there was barely any mention of Dave Stewart, Clem Robins and Scott Allie.
    Once these story pages are detailed and of a consistent quality then contributors can update the character pages and it should be a very good Wiki.
    Fantastic work! And I love how you have built out his appearances not in book publication order, but rather by a timeline of story years.

    This is my main aim with the Wiki. In order to improve it to the best of my ability I have requested admin rights on the Community Central Wiki and I would appreciate any current editors of the Wiki to agree that I should become admin here: Talk: Admin Request. Thanks.

    This wiki is a great idea to keep track of the myriad BPRD plotlines and characters. I've done a my first ever wiki contribution by adding a page for the BPRD agent Pauline Raskin, if recent experiences are anything to go by you never know when these small time appearance characters are going to become the focus of a new story!

    Although a simple feature, I really like that quote section on the site that allows you to click through and read more about that individual character the quote came from.

    One of the things I'm interested in seeing this wiki do, compared to what others do is move beyond plot summaries and mere spoiler descriptions to include sections on themes, literary allusions, style, referenceces to folklore/mythology etc. I'd like to see the wiki have more of a reflective slant which contributes to the discussion and ongoing appreciation of these books. With this in mind, when I wrote up a brief summary of 'Bishop Olek's Devil' I've included a 'References, Style and Discussion' section: http://hellboy.wikia.com/wiki/Bishop_Olek%27s_Devil

    Anyone else think this thread should be stickied at the top of the forum page?
