Unreferenced since creation, almost entirely WP:PLOT. No evidence in searches of passing WP:GNG - all search results are to fan-created content, pricing guides, eBay, etc. No evidence that this had any broader impact outside of the series named.

Keep the Google News link, above, shows ongoing RS coverage sufficient to meet GNG. Jclemens (talk) 07:51, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

With the exception of a The Hollywood Reporter article speculating about a possible movie deal "reportedly in the works", those GNews results are blogs and other fan-generated content. None appear to be true RS. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 11:02, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Indie Wire, Uproxx, Comic Book Resources, IGN, Collider (website), and Screen Rant are all non-RS? I find your above statement problematic. I know Google News content can vary slightly from place to place, but I'm seeing things that are entirely inconsistent with your statement. Jclemens (talk) 01:55, 5 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I agree with Jclemens that reliable sources mention the series, but I haven't been able to find coverage beyond trivial mentions in articles speculating about a potential film featuring both teams. It's unlikely than any eventual film will have much in common with this miniseries aside from - maybe - a name. Argento Surfer (talk) 15:56, 7 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete Unsourced, purely in-universe comic book precis. Andy Dingley (talk) 18:55, 11 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - fails in the sourcing department, but might be a merge candidate for a limited comic book series list. ^{Atsme📞📧} 21:53, 11 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
