The Main Man Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 I don't know if this has already been addressed when Arcane Adversaries came out, but I must state my discovery. I noticed something out of the blue about the three main family names of the Sylvestri clan. Sylvestri McFarlane Liefeld If you don't see it yet, maybe you'll recognize these names: Marc Sylvestri Todd McFarlane Rob Liefeld The Image Universe Founding Fathers, IIRC.

Sketchpad Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 Re: A Funny Thing Happened When I Read About The Sylvestri Clan... If you don't see it yet, maybe you'll recognize these names: Alan Sylvestri Todd McFarlane Rob Liefeld The Image Universe Founding Fathers, IIRC. I think you mean Marc Sylvestri ... Alan Silvestri is a music composer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrosshairCollie Posted November 27, 2005 Report Share Posted November 27, 2005 Re: A Funny Thing Happened When I Read About The Sylvestri Clan... Well, they do practice the arts arcane, right? (Though in the case of the Liefelds, it's more like 'arts profane'.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you are quite right, I made a silly mistake. But anyways, am I the first? I recognized McFarlane and Liefedl, but not Sylvestri. I always just thought of it as someone's joke/pointed comment.

Powerhouse Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 Re: A Funny Thing Happened When I Read About The Sylvestri Clan... Noticed and thought it was both funny yet appropriate. To balance things out we need some good guys named... what? Ross, Perez, and Mignolia? Who is Mignolia? Let's see, if we're looking at artists (since they sure as heck ain't writers): 1. Ross 2. Perez 3. Swan 4. Bolland (Brian) 5. Davis (Alan) 6. Bryne 7. Gibbons (of Watchmen fame) hmm... who was the artist who took over the Titans after Perez? Romeo Tanghal?
