Fails WP:GNG. The character appears to have no significant coverage in reliable sources, only unreliable fluff articles and otherwise minor mentions. TTN (talk) 13:58, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Fictional elements and Comics and animation. TTN (talk) 13:58, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
- Merge sourced content to List of Justice Society of America enemies where the character has an entry. Unfortunately there is not enough for the character to pass GNG. Rhino131 (talk) 14:26, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
- Delete: I found a few listicles, but there simply is not enough coverage in reliable sources to prove Johnny Sorrow's notability. ―Susmuffin Talk 19:51, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
- Keep or merge with List of DC Comics characters: S in the spirit of WP:PRESERVE. --Rtkat3 (talk) 18:13, 13 August 2022 (UTC)

- Redirect to List of Justice Society of America enemies#Modern Age, where he is already included with a description. Searching for sources does not turn up much outside of the above mentioned listicles and a few brief plot summaries. As he already has a full description in the main list of JSA enemies, that would be the preferable target for a redirect. As a sufficient description of the character is already present on that list, and this article does not contain any sourced non-plot information, I don't think a Merge is necessary, but the history will remain if anyone thinks there is additional information that should be moved over.

- Redirect to one of the targets proposed above. No sources suggests notability outside in-universe, all we have are plot summaries. That's not good enough for an encyclopedia (an entity different from fanpedia). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:51, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
- Redirect to List of Justice Society of America enemies#Modern Age. Article does not meet WP:GNG. Shooterwalker (talk) 19:23, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
