[edit] Overanalyzation?
A lot of this seems like it's trying to dissect a fairly unimpressive comic strip and reconstruct it into a great work of art. The "symbolism" section seems to include a lot of speculation, and the character lists are unnecessarily detailed for the average reader. This comic isn't that important. I'm going to size this down. --Krishva 09:03, Jun 3, 2005 (UTC)
I don't know, there's no such thing as too much information... Sippan 09:41, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Why'd you cut it down? It seemed to be better before. I agree though, that there is no such thing as too much info. (On certain topics of course.) Ian Rubin 02:29, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
It could do with a trivia section, JACK features a lot of seemingly pointless or inexplicible elements. For example; all the comics end in "TTFN", meaning Ta-Ta For Now. Also, the rapist dolphins of hell confuse a lot of people, and some think there is hidden signifigance in them. They're actually there to annoy a former boyfriend of D. Hopkins' spouse, who was fond of dolphins. -Anonymous
I disagree with Krishva; you may find that it is a fairly unimpressive comic strip but this is only your personal oppinion, and wikipedia articles arent based on personal oppinions. This webcomic is very popular and i, for one, consider it a work of art. This article is obviously just a beginning. instead of sizing it down, information should be added to this article, as there is much more to Jack then what is shown here. --Anonymous 22:40, 14 Sep 2006
Do you think there should be any mention of Drip's illegitimate daughter Lina in his article? --Anonymous, Unknown Date
Well. sofar only 1 single strip feautured her so i do not think she is (sofar) relevant to the story. she will probably/possibly become more relevant in the future, but nobody knows what david has planned --anonymous 02:00, 18 Sep 2006
Actually she appears in two, "Father" and "Falling Angels" (although she has a completely different personality "Falling Angels", possibly because she did not know Drip was her father and she was concieved of rape at the time). -- Anonymous, Unknown Date
[edit] Recurring/Minor characters
I've been toying with this idea, maybe a "Minor and recurring characters in Jack" article could be made, it could include characters like SilverBlue, Dr. Thalmus, Arloest, Satan, Jatter, just to name a few. -- Lord Crayak
[edit] Bangsian fantasy?
Jack is not a Bangsian fantasy. A huge portion of the narrative does not take place in the afterlife. Moreover, it lacks the other famous characteristics of Bangsian fantasy, such as an absence of fictional characters. Is there a source for this description, or is it original research? -Silence 22:09, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Story Arcs
I see that someone has been making summaries of several of Jack's story-arcs and shorts, perhaps since these summaries are pretty large and take up alot of space the should be moved to their own, perhaps "Jack shorts and story-arcs" or something. -- Lord Crayak
