This article has been unreferenced since 2007. This list is original research. Without a secondary source justifying all or most of the list, it needs to go. Rhadow (talk) 13:15, 7 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete- unsourced fancruft, and does not appear to serve any sort of navigational purpose. Reyk _YO! 07:32, 8 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, seems indiscriminate in a way that I don't think can really be fixed through a rename or editing: secret and nonsecret bases, hideouts and...entire planets. And no good reason to limit this to comics and animation. The secret base is a significant trope in fiction, but I think focusing on that would really just be a different list. Category:Fictional secret bases is also being applied indiscriminately (the hidden Batcave is secret, the very public Avengers Mansion is not), and seems to have far too few valid and notable examples to provide guidance for fixing this. postdlf (talk) 15:28, 8 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
