Bryant Burnette's review of the comics seems to indicate that the Rat-Man gets kind of a combination of Race Lift and Adapted Out - one of his scenes is given to a white guy; the rest are apparently dropped - but I've never read the comics myself and I'm not sure if this is entirely accurate. Can anyone provide further details?
Note to all: I don't participate in the forums here unless something much more important than TV Tropes content is at stake.I was set to change all the instances of "Abigail" to "Abagail" since that is how it's spelled throughout my 1991 Signet paperback, but then I noticed this would be reversing a previous edit. Since I don't want to start an edit war, why don't we talk about it here?
A casual Google search indicates that there are some editions (possibly e-books) in which both spellings are used. Does anyone know of any editions in which it's more or less consistently "Abigail"? If so, which spelling do we prefer and why?
If nobody can show that there's an edition where it's "Abigail," I'll go ahead and change it back to "Abagail" in, say, one week.

Note to all: I don't participate in the forums here unless something much more important than TV Tropes content is at stake.Just did a little editing and noticed that many tropes appear in the code with double percent signs (% % but without the space between them) and these ones don't show up when I'm looking at the page itself or the preview. What's that about?

Hide / Show RepliesThe double percentage signs are used to hide things and if you read the top of the page while editing, all the examples that are Zero-Context Examples have been hidden until someone adds more context to how they apply then the percentage signs can be removed for that example

Removed from main page, as there is a cleanup effort on one of the pages linked here underway and I am not sure what to do with this entry:
