THE SECRET WOLD NEWTON UNIVERSE

Cast of Characters

PART II

Following is a list of characters or sub-universes encompassed within The Wold Newton Universe, along with general dates or known periods of operation. Many on the list were originally placed in the Universe by Philip José Farmer (not intended to be an all-inclusive list - see Tarzan Alive and Doc Savage). I have added many more through their involvement in crossover stories with Farmer's original Wold Newton characters.

The following criteria used to determine membership.

(1) an ancestor of other Wold Newton family members (such as Solomon Kane),

(2) present at the Wold Newton meteor strike (such as Sir Percy Blakeney), or

(3) an actual member of the Wold Newton mutant family.

(4) characters that Rick Lai postulated were Wold Newton family members (such as Dr. James Noel and Dominick Medina), and characters who, by descent, must be Wold Newton family members (examples are Rasputin, Raffles Holmes, Archie Goodwin, Creighton Holmes, Dawn Drummond-Clayton, Ching Yao Chang, Hsu-Tei, Clark Savage IV, Pam Savage, Spencer Holmes, James Suzuki, and Spock of Vulcan).

BROWN TEXT INDICATES REVISIONS AND ADDITIONS TO THE CHARACTER LIST BY DENNIS POWER. THE REVISIONS AND ADDITIONS WILL REFLECT NEW CHARACTERS, SPECULATIONS ON THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN THE CHARACTERS AND ADDITIONAL BACKGROUND INFORMATION. THESE ARE OFTEN BROUGHT IN BY HIS OWN RESEARCH AND DO NOT NECESSARILY REFLECT THE CHARACTERS ACCEPTED BY THE ORIGINAL WOLD NEWTON CHARACTER LIST.

When a name in the heading is in black you can click on it to go to that character's or sub-universe's individual chronology at Chronology Central at Win Eckert's Wold Newton Universe Site.
When a book or story title is in black you can click on it to either download an e-text version or to visit an online copy of that work.


The Secret History of the Wold Newton Universe is now searchable.
The search engine will also search the other participating members sites of the NEW WOLD NEWTON METEORITICS SOCIETY
