 * Kick-Ass: Yes, we should have it.
 * Ultraforce / Night Man: Yes
 * MIB: No
 * Unofficial Reps: Still on a case-by-case basis. We must be careful as this is a STEEP slippery slope.
 * TRNs: I like the idea of others using our TRNs. Often, this is exactly how a made-up piece of information becomes the de facto standard for the industry. I am not saying to PROMOTE the use of our TRNs, but what's the harm? What could possibly go wrong? hehehe

I agree with all of this. Really, the only thing holding back Kick-Ass coverage is me wanting to have a system in place to deal with other Icon/Epic properties. I've never been against Kick-Ass being covered here (it just makes sense), but I've just wanted to make sure we could include other properties. It's just the specifics of coming up with a policy that's hindered things due to the sheer number of exceptions and exceptions to exceptions. If nothing else, why not implement a simple policy and use Kick-Ass as the test?

And I'm all for covering the other Ultraverse stuff. One oddball is that there's actually a made-for-video Firearm movie that can be seen in ads from all of the Ultraverse comics from the time that's actually intended as a lead into the Firearm comic series. Never understood if Night Man was meant to tie into the comics, though (likely not, though, since I'm fairly certain it debuted after the comic ended).

And I completely agree with Jamie's statement on TRNs. Yeah, they were our idea, but seeing them used elsewhere is cool, and maybe our little idea can become something bigger. If nothing else, it'll spur the official reality numberers into coming up with official numbers.
