Twan - I think your Tool/Batman analogy is perfect. Both brooding, dark and definitely more than meets the eye on all levels.

Although I understand the premise for the Radiohead/V one, it doesn't feel exactly right to me. I'm thinking it's because although I love radiohead's music, there is no physical attraction. And being the female that I am, no superhero is truly super without that. Yeah, V's face is behind a mask, which leaves it up to my imagination, but hell, I even find that mask appealing. I can't think of any band I could use as a comparison to V. Speaking of, only one month to go!!!! V is now resting on my nightstand rather comfortably.

I finished Anansi Boys the other night, took me less than a week. I devoured that book. Fat Charlie was at times reminiscent of Richard Mayhew from Neverwhere. I liked the comical aspect and how Spider/Charlie sort of swapped identities and both melded together by the end of the book.

I thought the same thing (Fat Charlie/Richard Mayhew). But yeah, it was a great read. I hope he revists the characters again at some point. I grew to really like them.




So let me get this straight, you want to get it on with a dude in a mask? Man, what a sicko. Somebody call the state and get them to take away her kids!

(sarcasm smiley winky thingy)

I'm totally stoked for the movie, too. I keep hearing good things.
