Would You Guys Like If Moore Wrote The Whole 'Under The Hood'' Book?

[Matt.S99]

Simple question. Would you? I think it would be great to see what else Hollis Mason wrote in the book.

 

[Everything boy]

No I wouldn't (only because I can only see it revealing all sorts of things that, either we already know or don't care about)

HOWEVER, I read your post and thought about a crazy thing I said when someone showed me the Tales of the Black Freighter trailer "shouldn't it be called Marooned due to the fact that it's only one issue?" This got me thinking what would really be good would be a comic series that actually does the stuff that was said in "A man on fifteen dead men's chests"

First would be a story about three of the worst (morally not in sea-skills) seamen in the world talking in a bar about the crazy things they've done and seen, afterward they would be offered jobs by a mysterious sea captain on a ship that is from a very different type of murky depths...

Then there would be the grand rhyming Shanty of Edward Teach where the famous pirate known as Blackbeard sings his song from behind the smoking cannon-fuses tied in his beard. selection:

I tread a lurching timber world; A reeking salt caked hell;
And yet, perhaps, no worse a world than yours,
Where Bishops stroll through charnel yards with pomanders to smell
Where vile men thrive and love crawls on all fours.

Then would be The figurehead which we know nothing about save the fact that it is about pirates being gay (wouldn't be unrealistic, think about it, they're at sea for years at a time, things happen)

Then of course is our beloved Marooned

But to those who have read the fifth document, one story's introduction (a sentence, really) intrigues and tantalizes more than all others... the stories based on the Books in the captains library (some of which are supposedly tomes headed for the Vatican for eternal suppression.)

I, as an Alan Moore fan know that the above premise would be a great starting point for an extremely strange series(given Moore's knowledge of mythology, hatred of Christianity and awareness of all thing catholics would have banned.)

Now that I re-read this document, it kinda seems that Shea is a Mary-sue for Moore, but I will start another thread for that, hopefully you will join me.

On a less serious tip: Dushku, really?? everyone keeps telling me how hot she is, I don't see it (any more than any other actresses, sorry I have two friends that talk about her so highly and so often that I feel like I'm taking crazy pills, but then again i thought the same thing when my friend told me of the legendary hotness of a girl from a little show called Alias)

I'd rather a comic itself. More of the minute men! It could be pretty awesome.

Dushku owns. Way hotter than Garner.
