Okay, now people with two issues out will be able to claim two (2) additional characters this month.
Second titles will not be available until December or until everyone can get a second issue up, which ever comes first. But looking at the writers taking care into crafting their issues, I don't see that being an issue.

Character: Bizarro Title: Ultimate Superman Role: Villain
and, if possible, there was a Bizarro like entity in Morrison's All-Star Superman named Zibarro, and this one had the normal brain capacity of a human, a rather smart human at that. Would he be considered wallpaper, or would I need to claim him?

Time to flesh out some of the behind the scenes movers and shakers Character RequestCharacter: Victor Frankenstein Title: Ultimate Planetary Role: Support Character RequestCharacter: Count Vlad Dracul III of Wallachia (a.k.a. Count Dracula) Title: Ultimate Planetary Role: Support both were used by Warren Ellis in conjunction with the Planetary series, so are DC characters in addition to public domain characters. -M

Approved for both of you.
Mezzaro, you would need to claim Zibarro. While semi-related to Bizzaro, I don't think it's enough to have him be Wallpaper.

Alright, I have been mulling this for a few days, but a change in occupation and a need to focus on something other than art has got me itching to do some writing, so I would like to come back and do a series for revamped UDCU.
Title Request:
Title: Blood Syndicate Subtitle: Nobody gets out alive... Hero(es): Leonard Smalls (Holocaust), Grace Choi, Carlos Quinones Jr. (Fade), Sara Quinones (Flashback), Hannibal White (Wise Son), Rosabelle Mendez (Pantha) Villains: Zombies, Mark Scheffer (Shrapnel), Earthworm, Charaxes Support: Dogg, Mayor Thomasina Jefferson, Edwin Alva

Okay, welcome back, TJ. It's really great to have one of our vets back. I have little problem approving this title, however there area few issues.
1) We couldn't find Zombies as anything other than actual zombies. If you're looking to have a monopoly on zombies, we really can't have that since zombies are the most generic creatures in all of fiction. And they also have so many interpretations from hard science to fantasy. The claims process is essentially a reservation process ensuring that you have full custody over a character or group (or race in some cases), but because zombies aren't any of those as much as they are an idea, we can't give one writer control over that. It would be like if one writer tried to claim communism or the Nazis or something of that sort.
You can use zombies in the same way that I can use zombies, but they will be as loosely connected as regular zombie fiction is anyways.
2) The only Charaxes we could come up with was the new form of Killer Moth after Underworld Unleashed. If this isn't the one you're planning on using, please tell us and direct us toward some more information. If it is, do you plan on reserving Killer Moth as well? Just so we can put that in the claims thread. And if so, will the other two be available?
Once these questions/issues are solved, I'll approve your title.

Grace Choi is an amazon I believe so at the very least she'd require approval/ coordination with discipleofbob.

1. I don't want Zombies as anybody specific or to have a monopoly on them, they are just going to be one of the enemies in the series, specifically a strain of zombies created by the gas which also causes the mutations of all the team members.
2. Grace Choi will not be an Amazon in this series, I never much liked the revelation anyway (and have no intention of mentioning it)
3. Yeah the Charaxes is the one that was created when Killer Moth was mutated in Underworld Released. I don't plan on ever using the Killer Moth identity or associating this character with the identity. Just give him the name Danko Twag, one of the many who claimed to be Killer Moth/Charaxes over the years!

1. Okay, that's not an issue. If you don't mind, I'm not even going to put them in the Master Claims List. They really don't need to be claimed since they are your own original spin on a public domain concept.
2. Cool. I didn't pick up on that in my research. Granted, it's hard to know everything about every character that's claimed. So thanks, buck for picking up on that.
3. You got it.
I approve. I'll get your board set up.

I'm invoking Rule 9a of the Claims section. With that I won't have need of any claims for some time.
Character: Robin Hood Title: Ultimate Demon Knights Role: Support
Character: Lord Auberon Title: Ultimate Demon Knights Role: Support
Character: Lady Titania Title: Ultimate Demon Knights Role: Support
Wallpaper: The Merry Men, Maid Marian, Sheriff of Nottingham, Sir Guy of Gisbourne, the Faerie Court

<_<
Am I going to end up having to approve of Star?
Guess so.
Looks fine though I'm iffy on if the Sheriff should be counted as Wallpaper. He is Robin Hood's significant other in the literary sense yet if I say no, you could just make anyone the Sheriff and it'd be the same character in all but name officially. In the end, I'll rull in favor of you using the Sheriff since we're not too overly picky about characters like that. If another admin has an issue with it, they can weigh in but for now, he's yours.
Hopefully we can find some way to crossover with Arrow.

Yeah, I'm going to rule in favor the the Sheriff too. Without Robin Hood, the Sheriff has very little role as an individual.

Since I have Sherlock Holmes claimed, can I add Dr. Watson to the Wallpaper for Ultimate Planetary?

Disciple-they are formatted correctly, however, you need to have 2 issues up before you can make your first monthly claims. When you do make your claims though, wallpaper claims do not count towards your limit of two per month.

Planning my second chapter made me realize I needed certain characters.

Send me a PM with your reasoning why and I'll let you know. I don't foresee an issue if you're just exchanging one unused claim for another but protocol should be followed.
