Fictional concept appearing in a single comic storyline (Batman: The Long Halloween). The topic fails to establish notability, and all relevant context can be handled by the main article. TTN (talk) 12:11, 7 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Comic book character-cruft. Fails WP:GNG as non-notable._{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 13:22, 7 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Batman: The Long Halloween. While the "character" is not independently notable from the storyline they appeared in, that series is notable, and Redirecting to there would probably not hurt. As this article is nothing but a summary of that storyline, which is already covered in the target article, there shouldn't be anything that needs Merging.

Redirect to Batman: The Long Halloween per reasons stated above. Rhino131 (talk) 17:23, 7 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect as a somewhat plausible search term, might at least have this appear in the searchbar. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 05:52, 8 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Redirect to Batman: The Long Halloween. I suspect there may be offline sources for this one (I remember a few Wizard articles, but my Wizard collection has long since been recycled), but in their absence, a redirect is plausible and gives a method for a cheap refund if sources eventually turn up. --Killer Moff- ill advisedly sticking his nose in since 2011 (talk) 15:45, 9 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Character isn't notable outside of the Long Halloween/Dark Victory miniseries. Redirect is unnecessary since 1) any reader knowledgeable enough to search for this character should be competent enough to find the Long Halloween article and 2) there's no reason to think a reader searching for something as generic as "Holiday (comics)" wants this character instead of, say, this or this.
