Does not meet WP:GNG. Page is linked in the body of four articles, and the character appears eight times according to Marvel Wikia. Namenamenamenamename (talk) 16:49, 31 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per sources noted below supporting the WP:GNG, or failing that merge into List of Marvel Comics characters: A or List of Marvel Comics Golden Age characters. No need to delete when merge is a valid option. BOZ (talk) 20:12, 31 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - No toher likely target and fails WP:GNG. --Killer Moff (talk) 14:55, 1 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect/Merge to List of Marvel Comics characters: A. An extremely minor character, whose only sources are primary. However, his name is unusual enough that it could be a valid search term, so a redirect and selective merge would be fine. 169.232.162.112 (talk) 17:17, 7 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Keep Cracked has an entertaining account of the character and it's not difficult to find similar coverage elsewhere. The nomination's assertion about the WP:GNG is therefore false while its claims about Wikia are remarkably irrelevant. Andrew D. (talk) 10:10, 8 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The information provided from the Marvel Wikia goes directly to a lack of significance within the fiction. Marvel has published 60+ comics a month for almost 80 years. A character appearing in only 8 of those says a lot about his lack of importance. Argento Surfer (talk) 21:29, 8 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete does not meet my criteria for merging or redirect. Coverage of the character in list articles of oddball comic characters doesn't demonstate notability. Argento Surfer (talk) 21:29, 8 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Passes the WP:GNG. Comic Book Resources gives significant coverage to the character at [1] Screen Rant mention him at [2]. This and other coverage found and mentioned count. Dream Focus 00:15, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
