The result was redirect to Marvel Family. Redirects are cheap. Unlikely search terms but the history is preserved. Tone 22:59, 10 December 2019 (UTC)

This list is composed entirely of in-universe description of trivial plot details, sourced only to the work of fiction itself. It gives very obscure fictional characters undue weight and also contains quite a bit of original research, given the sparse and primary nature of the sourcing. I am also nominating the following for the same reasons:
and also this container list, which will be useless when the child articles are deleted

- Delete This can be covered in other articles, it does not warrant a seperate list.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:13, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
- Delete all - The grouping does not establish notability. There are 27 primary DC character lists that can house any DC characters, so this being a necessary article fork is not established either. TTN (talk) 15:00, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
- Keep all four articles - The combined size of the four articles is over 200kB, and would be arduous to merge into Marvel Family, which is just over 30 kB. If the articles can not be kept, they should be redirected to Marvel Family in order to keep the history. --Jax 0677 (talk) 15:32, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
- Delete All - Nearly all of these entries are completely non-notable, being one-shot characters that appeared in one issue of a comic ever. The handful of characters that actually are notable (i.e. Captain Nazi, Black Adam, etc) already have their own articles. The remainder is complete non-notable cruft sourced only to the single comic issues that they appeared in. Rorshacma (talk) 16:32, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
- Delete all. More of WP:FANCRUFT and WP:NOR. Ajf773 (talk) 18:54, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
- Delete all Extremely trivial comic-cruft lists that fail WP:LISTN hard.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 20:58, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
- Delete or prune. I doubt this list is useful and satisfies LISTN through I guess the 'prune all that don't have articles' approach is fair for now, too. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 09:23, 4 December 2019 (UTC)
- Keep - I have to agree with @Jax 0677: on his claim. Plus, there are some redirects from The Kid Superpower Hour with Shazam! that go to the child pages. If it is Merge, perhaps they can be reorganized like the rogues gallery pages for the other known superheroes. --Rtkat3 (talk) 03:51, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
- Delete all - clearly fails LISTN. Cjhard (talk) 07:46, 9 December 2019 (UTC)
