@DisturbedNeo There's historically been no need for that. If and only if a user says "I only want comic-book based answers" we add the comics tag if there's room, to specify scope. However, if you are meaning to say names of individual comics such as the-superior-spider-man, then yes, that run/series can get its own tag but generally unless it's about a graphic novel (see dark-knight-returns) people are just asking about the character in general, across all continuities. Although, another exception, we do have the-new-52.

| Mar 13, 2017 at 13:17 | comment | added | DisturbedNeo | So perhaps separate the tags so that they're no longer synonymous? I.e have "DC" and "Marvel" represent the publishers and "DC-Comics" and "Marvel-Comics" represent purely the comic medium. If we have separate tags for the cinematic universes, we should have tags for the comics as well. I don't expect direct current to get much in-depth discussion on this site, so it shouldn't be a problem. | |

@Randal'Thor The -comics tag is just the name of the publisher, they're both synonyms with the same tag sans -comics

| Mar 12, 2017 at 14:43 | comment | added | Rand al'Thor Mod | A bit. Still could be a bit clearer: are you proposing that all questions about any DC comics get the dc-comics tag? Many superman questions are going to be about films and not comics; do you also want those to have the comics tag? | |
| Mar 12, 2017 at 14:42 | comment | added | Mithical | @Randal'Thor - better now? | |
