Handle id #11220 : Dr. Mabuse

At the moment it's just a hypothesis but inspite of the acronym DRM used I've got doubts about 8 of the currently credited releases belonging to the Kiel-based Dr. Mabuse.

The intro used in Fast Tracks and The Newsroom states The real Doctor Mabuse and both contain "3500". Both does not really fit to any of the releases by DRM/Kiel who sometimes used "1998" in the DSC releases. Also only in the afore-mentioned 2 releases and Knightmare "Indiana Jones" is greeted. Moreover, only the co-operation releases with Ice-T (currently 6 releases including the afore-mentioned Knightmare) contain greetings to "deve, llama, indiana jones, jedi and werner". I've never saw any of those greeted in DRM/Kiel releases. Btw, The Newsroom was also a co-operation with some "Dragon" (no matter if it's any of the currently 67 scener "Dragon" entries...). As far as I recall, DRM/Kiel wasn't a great team player. None of the doubtful releases contain any PLK addresses in Kiel.

So it's more than a feeling, but maybe we need more evidence, before we split those 8 and link them to some new scener entry "Doctor Mabuse" aka "The Real Doctor Mabuse"

AFAIR Dr. Mabuse from Kiel and Dr. Mabuse of Alpha Flight were different Persons.

Neither were real Doctors I believe. I found this out after a rectal exam.

What a mess!

Unfortunately BOTH were bla-bla-ing about Amiga every now and then, that's probably why it never occurred to me before, but what Røly (who knew DRM/Kiel in persona) and E$G hinted at, could be confirmed as I've found a Düsseldorf-PLK in one of the AFL-releases.
-> I split the existing 6 The Darkness and 2 AFL release entries to a newly created scener entry Dr. Mabuse

So, a little less messy now, good job, I guess, hehehe.

But if my suspicions from posting #1 are correct, we even need a 3rd scener...!

Good job indeed!
Why do you think a 3rd scener would be needed? For the Coop-Releases with Ice-T?
