Wait... was this solicited? I thought this was a last-minute replacement for an Anti-Monitor issue? - Reboot (SoM) talk page 19:54, 27 October 2007 (PDT) PS: Whether this goes to *Promo.jpg or stays as solicit, shouldn't it be "TalesSinestroCorpsSupermanPrime" or something like that to fit in with Image:GLSinestroCorpsSpec1Solicit.jpg? - Reboot (SoM) talk page 22:35, 27 October 2007 (PDT)

Not sure whether or not this was solicited on the same timetable as other comics in the same week, as I wasn't really following it until Omnicom pointed out the Takron-Galtos reference. If *Promo is more appropriate, I'm OK with that. It is currently being promoted on DC's site like any other comic, but I don't know when it showed up there. The cover artwork there is completely different from what was actually released.
As for the file name, I originally toyed with both TalesSinestroCorpsSupermanPrimeSolicit and TlsSnstrCrpsSupermanPrimeSolicit but they both seemed so awkward and cumbersome that I just simplified it. The longer name better matches the actual issue title. If they had had Legion content, the recent Parallax and Cyborg-Superman issues should have had a similar naming format, and who knows what others might prove relevant in the future. I'll be happy to rename the file with the longer name, but is it *Solicit or *Promo? -- Gopher 04:56, 28 October 2007 (PDT)
Hmmm, not sure why my comments from last night don't show up in the history log. Anyway, "Tales of the Sinestro Corps: Superman Prime" #1 is the official title of the book, and the cover (as seen here [1]) is not the same as the solicited image, which was for the Anti-Monitor story. From what I can see, orders for the Anti-Monitor issue were moved over to the Superman Prime issue; even DC's own page [2]still shows the old cover. I wasn't able to find any images of the cover without the logos and stuff. The story takes place concurrently with this week's issue of "Green Lantern Corps". The Takron-Galtos and Khundia references are in this week's regular issue of "Superman", not the Sinestro Corps' Superman Prime, by the way. -- Omnicom 10:18, 28 October 2007 (PDT)
Oh, and category-wise, this should go into a "Green Lantern covers" category. And Why is there a "Superman v1 covers" category as the only sub-cat of "Superman covers"? -- Omnicom 10:24, 28 October 2007 (PDT)
Sorry, the category I used was a complete oversight. Actually, I'm thinking Miscellaneous (Post-Infinite Crisis) covers, unless there is an existing cat that better applies. We don't have a Green Lantern covers cat, but I suppose we could create one. I would see that as supplementary/second to the Misc category. As for Superman v1 covers, they used to be categorized as just Superman covers, and then I broke them out. However, there are few enough of the other Superman related series that I'm not sure they need their own cat. Perhaps we should meld them back in to one larger Superman covers cat? Khundia/TG - sorry, not thinking - looks like there was a lot of that happening when I uploaded the image. -- Gopher 12:59, 28 October 2007 (PDT)
