Nate Novo

(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

This article about "the primary superhero in Marvel's upcoming 2010 motion picture 'Have a Go Hero'" appears to be a hoax. A Google search returns no indication that this fictional character exists. The subject fails Wikipedia:Verifiability. Cunard (talk) 08:11, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - I was the person who flagged it as a hoax. I did quite a bit of checking and nothing comes up in connection with comics, Marvel or Starkiller. In fact the main Nate Novo I can find is someone on a number of social networking sites (which is itself a bit suspicious given the lack of any other candidates). It may the name is wrong, which would throw off our checking (which is why I flagged it rather than speedy deleted, just in case) but I see nothing to support that this, as described, exists.

Delete - I can't even find anything about the movie or a British comic book company "Starkiller," so I think we can safely assume this is a hoax. Annalise (talk) 17:18, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I was unable to find the comic book company or a 2010 Marvel film. Since even the casting of such films is big news covered all over the place, I feel I can safely assume hoaxery here. - Mgm|^(talk) 12:45, 11 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
