The [other] Homestar Runner

The character from the Storybook World is also known as The Homestar Runner. So I was thinking we might need to mention him on this page, even if just in passing. Something like "The Homestar Runner is also the name used by Homestar Runner in the Storybook World." As I'm also considering doing a character sheet on Storybook World, Homestar Runner in the above quote could eventually point there.

Anyways, I'd like to get at least one regular to agree with me before I make this change. I'd also like to know if I should treat it like a disambig, or put it further down in the article.trlkly 12:50, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

It's definitely not worth a disambig... but a one sentence mention in the article makes sense to me. Oh, and you don't need clearance from anyone ;-) go for it!

As for the character sheet, I'm not so sure it makes sense. The Ol' Timey versions are distinctly different characters than their modern counterparts, but the Storybook versions aren't — they are the same characters, just "younger". What do you envision would go on a character sheet for the Storybook era? Is there really much to say, that wouldn't be more appropriate in the main characters' article?  Green Helmet ← (offically self-proclaimed regular) 14:30, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

I wouldn't say that's true, we've seen "regular world" younger versions. I would say it's more of a different universe than you'd think, almost dream-like (somersaulting to mars, playing tennis on the moon, etc.) — Defender1031☻Talk 16:38, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
