Ahaha, holy poo poo! I shouldn't really be surprised at this, Alan Moore has always had a tremendous respect for the comic medium and picked bits of the best to work into his own stories. I've no doubt he was an avid reader of Modesty Blaise.

On top of a newspaper, which Heckbender then takes to the outside world and publishes under the title "Mike Du Jour."

It certainly explains why that particular plot point was so convoluted. The movie gets credit just for coming up with a way to organically pull that off without an extended period of infodumping from a completely different story.

#1: There's been some chatter about how awesome the Mole Man was for going to the trouble of convincing a priest to hang out in his lair until wedding times, but let us also give him props for also managing to come up with a wedding dress in the fashionable mermaid style on such short notice. Those things can be a bitch to fit properly.

I only have the edit of it that I made when everyone was spending more time asking if they should post lovely comics than complaining about the lovely comics being posted. Which is weird, because I'm usually very careful to save the original so that six months down the track I know what I was making fun of.

Clyde says what's on his mind, and he isn't afraid to lose friends over it. Half the time he's just being a shithead. The other half he's speaking truth to power. Everybody needs a friend like Clyde, he's a Mean Dog Comix.

Because he's usually a funny rear end in a top hat to Lemont's milquetoast bullshit. This feels like character assassination on Clyde in that he's not directly mocking Lemont through this. :colbert:
