This article describes a comic from 1987 which seems not to have had a legacy in the arts. It ran for 6 issues. No reliable sources are identified giving information about it. Information given in this article does not meet notability criteria. Blue Rasberry (talk) 19:46, 10 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Zooniverse is notable in that it was one of the very first Australian written and drawn comics that was published and distributed by a US comic book publisher. I have added a number of references to verify the article. Dan arndt (talk) 05:15, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Zooniverse Fil Barlow has returned to comics and is working on animated versions atLoop De Loop and a collected album of the six issue comic series with publisher Milk Shadow Books along with smaller black and white comics of new Zooniverse work, the first of which was published last week. Thank you to Dan Arndt for helping with the verifications. Pungence (talk) 06:01, 11 July 2012 (UTC) — Pungence (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]

Merge to Fil Barlow. The sources added to the article are, with the exception of Design & Art Australia, not reliable sources; notability is not established for this comic series. A merge and redirect to the comic artist seems appropriate for this subject. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 22:24, 8 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Fil Barlow per The Bushranger. Rorshacma (talk) 17:13, 9 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Fil Barlow. This series does not appear to meet notability for a stand-alone article, but the artist is notable - so a merge/redirect would appear to be apt PhantomSteve/talk|contribs\ 02:42, 11 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
