Michael Jackson Quote[edit]

I've declined adding the quote. You may want to bring up discussion on the talk page about where stylistically to include the quote if at all. -Optigan13 (talk) 06:20, 26 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

On Poe as "Tomahawk Man"[edit]

Hi Eric,

Have you seen this as a possible reference for "Tomahawk Man":

The Everything Guide to Edgar Allan Poe Book: The life, times, and work of a tormented genius. Bloomfield, Shelley Costa. Adams Media. 1 September 2007. p. 91

"When a caricature of Poe appeared in Holden's Dollar Magazine in January in 1849, Poe had already been doing hatchet jobs on mediocre American writers for a dozen years. No surprise, then, that the caricature by Felix Darley depicts Poe in silhouette with a war bonnet, brandishing a dagger in one hand and a tomahawk in the other, nearly dancing with critical glee. It was a reflection of Poe's status in the world of criticism--a Tomahawk Man." JoePeschel (talk) 20:08, 25 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
