This is a relatively new topic for me and I feel this article is worth looking at as an introduction for me. I will complete a review as part the May 2025 Backlog Drive. simongraham (talk) 14:28, 31 May 2025 (UTC)

Comments

• First, some general comments
• Overall, this is a well-written article.
• It is of reasonable length, with 1,407 words of readable prose.
• The lead is appropriately long at 292 words.
• Authorship is 84.3% from the nominator with contributions from 20 other editors.
• Marcus Brute turned the article from a redirect in 2010, although without references. Less than 10% of this content remains.
• It is currently assessed as a B class article.
• "The Galactus Trilogy" is a duplicate link although I feel in a way that is consistent with the MOS.
• Although not a GA criteria, suggest adding ALT text to the images for accessibility.
• Similarly suggest moving Lican & Rizzo 2002, Morrow 2007, and Weiner 2008 to the same format as the remaining books for consistency.

Criteria

The six good article criteria:

1. It is reasonable well written.

   the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct;

   • The writing is generally clear and appropriate.
   • I think "a" is redundant in ""This Man... This Monster!" considers what makes someone as a monster" and that "a" or "the" is missing from "with football star".
   • Consider "Ben's desire to restore his human form, redemption of villains through sacrifice, and the nature of exploration and introspection."
   • I can see no other obvious spelling or grammar errors.

   it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead, layout and word choice.

   • It seems to comply with the Manuals of Style.

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   it contains a reference section, presented in accordance with the layout style guideline;

   • A reference section is included, with sources listed.
