Well, there might be merit in the encyclopedia entry format, each
entry split into subcategories as has already been suggested (name,
appeared in, history, etc etc). Alternatively, the reason I like the
Discontinuity Guide so much is that it makes it possible to search
sources, which is another option - a cross-referenced database of
sources, including comic strips, short stories, novels, the lot.
