I'm sure this has come up in the past, and will come up again in the future. But after reading this weeks books, this one stuck in my mind.
When is a first appearance only considered a cameo?
In my mind a cameo is a partial shot of the character, maybe a name drop.
But a full image, name and speaking bits seems like a full.
.
Examples:
.
Nubia and The Amazons #1
https://comicspriceguide.com/titles/nubia-the-amazons/1/phuybsq
1st Appearance of New Amazons: Andromeda, Zina, Delphine, Karessi, Bia
*This seems to be noted as their first appearance
*several pages of images and dialog
.
Strange Academy #13
(not in guide yet)
Gaslamp is named, shown on two pages and has dialog.
*Everything online is pointing as issue #15 being his first full.
*So is this a cameo?
.
Venom #1
(doesn't appear to be in guide yet)
Meridius is named, shown on two pages and has dialog.
*I can find nothing online even referencing him.
*So is this a cameo?
