What's this i hear about wolfgang gartner and Nissae

I heard something about wolfgang gartner doing a song with a sertin someone i know, is this true? Where is wolfgang feat. Nissae Isen anyway? N.I.M. (talk) 13:36, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

You might want to expand your question to let the rest of us know what you are talking about. Perhaps a link to this Wolfgang Gartner? And what did your hear and about who? - or are we expected to guess who you know? Astronaut (talk) 13:50, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Does it have something to do with Kim Possible or WordGirl? Just guessin' The Hero of This Nation (talk) 14:46, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

No, i heard from a friend that he actualy found a song by Wolfgang Gartner featuring Nissae Isen, but he would not say what it's called. I doubt this is true, but i don't know for sure whether it's true, so i'm checking here. Keep in mind that i am skeptical about this. No KP or WG, however, soon i will be asking about kim possible again, but that's irrelivent. Is there a song by Wolfgang Gartner feat. Nissae Isen, or is my friend mearly doing a prank when he said he found this? N.I.M. (talk) 03:23, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

B.B. KING GUITARS IN 1999

IN 1999 B.B.KING WAS AT HIS FAVORITE CHARITY FUND RAISER CAMP HOPE. GIBSON GUITAR COMPANY MADE SEVEN HAND PAINTED AND SIGNED LUCILLES FOR THAT CHARITY FOR AUCTION. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHERE THEY ARE (SIX) BECAUSE I HAVE ONE.WHAT IS THERE WORTH?? I TRIED TO GET INFO, BUT NEVER SUCEEDED. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.89.111.98 (talk) 22:59, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Your best option is to contact Gibson directly. I had a friend that had a valuable antique Gibson guitar, and every luthier she brought it to told her to contact Gibson's main offices in Nashville, Tennessee for more information. Here is their "Contact us" page at their website. --Jayron32 00:57, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Earth's Mightiest Copyright Violation?

I have recently seen The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes, and there's a thing I don't understand: what are they doing fighting against Brainiac in the opening? Wasn't that a DC character? MBelgrano (talk) 23:08, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

I haven't seen the series, but that kind of thing happens from time to time; see Fictional crossover. If you can find a reference in a reliable source, why not add this to List of crossovers in fiction. Astronaut (talk) 00:02, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Perhaps it happens from time to time in comics, but how often does it happen in TV? The most a TV animated series may get is to mix contemporary animated series of the same studios, like Superman and Batman or Spider-Man and the X-Men with their 90's series. A Marvel-DC crossover in TV, as far as I know, has never been done. MBelgrano (talk) 00:12, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

By the way, to give more context, I'm talking about this. There's that giant skull-shaped robot with tentacles that Iron Man destroys after his fligth, and again with Thor's thunder at the end. If that's not Brainiac, who is it supposed to be? A new giant robot that looks like Brainiac? MBelgrano (talk) 00:19, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

It's not Brainiac, they're agents of HYDRA. The picture in our article is slightly obscured, but their symbol is taken from the mythological hydra, but it's kind of combined with an octopus' tentacles (perhaps due to their relationship with Commander Kraken?). You can see it better here. I've never seen the show, but our article makes it clear that HYDRA is a central antagonist. Matt Deres (talk) 00:58, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
