- Added notes about birth of marginals; they had started as text jokes. The details are based remembered answers from a Q&A session Aragones gave at GenCon some time in 90s. Alan De Smet 00:54, 22 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- Added note that Sergio was warned off of comics; apparent MAD paid better. Again, this is from the GenCon Q&A session I attended in the 90s. Clearly these are his claims (and my memories of those claims). It's possible that Mr. Aragones misremembered details, I misremembered details, or that Mr. Aragones stretched the truth for humorous effect. I believe attributing the information to Mr. Aragones is a reasonable way to include it. Alan De Smet 00:59, 22 Sep 2004 (UTC)
- Regarding my revert of "Mexican" from categories. Sergio was born in Spain, moved to Mexico with his parents, then moved to the United States in 1962 (I'll note that last item in the article momentarily). One could make a case for his being a Spanish artist (by heritage and birth), or an American artist (by current residence). The claim for Mexican would be iffy. (Regrettably, I don't know about actual citizenship.) Alan De Smet 18:24, 25 Oct 2004 (UTC)
-- Reverted "Mexican" from the categories again for the above reasons. Is there a good reason to list him under Mexican instead of American (which he is) or Spanish? Alan De Smet | Talk 22:10, August 2, 2005 (UTC)
--- Apologies, didn't see that I was re-reverting. I thought Aragones produced work in the US and Mexico, Spain simply being his birth country? In which case there's a reasonable claim for him to go in both categories. What do others think? Vizjim 08:45, 3 August 2005 (UTC)
