So, in All-New Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z #12 (published in 2006) Wild Thing received a full-page entry. Now, I could point out the obvious error in the entry where Rina's place of birth is listed as 'Howlett Bay, Canada' but that's clearly a typo and is later corrected to 'Hudson Bay, Canada' when the entry was reprinted in Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A to Z Vol. 13 (published in 2010). Here's the original entry for reference:
What's not corrected in the updated entry is the mention of Colin Brewster's familial relationship to Cameron Bryce-Jones. Anyone who's read my Bryce-Jones Family Tree post will know that I did not include Colin as a member of that family. Yet, there it is in black and white:
If Colin and Cameron were related it would make the entire Wild Thing series very awkward, considering Cameron acted like the two were dating. So what gives? I believe the writer of Wild Thing's entry misinterpreted this scene from Wild Thing #5 where Rina questions Colin about his relationship with Cameron:
There you have it, Colin and Cameron are not related but have known one another since they were children and their parents are all friends. Oh, and the two aren't dating either, Rina! Hopefully that clears that matter up.
Until I find something more important to nitpick, I remain
frogoat
