Hmmmmmm

Alan Moore is the writer on this, and his work is widely respected. Still, I'm not at all sure I want to see this. I guess I'm a Disney-version kind of a guy, after all.

Naked anger as Peter Pan's Wendy gets porno rewrite - Scotsman.com News: "PETER Pan is known to generations of children as the boy who never grew up.

But his sweetheart Wendy is depicted in a series of adult situations in a hugely controversial new adaptation of JM Barrie's classic tale.

In the extremely graphic graphic-novel Lost Girls, Pan's demure companion is shown in a serious of erotic trysts.

The illustrated adult book, which depicts Tinkerbell being raped and Wendy being spied on by paedophile peeping toms, has provoked children's campaigners and devotees of the original Barrie fable to demand it be taken off the shelves."

The book has been out for over a year and its way overrated. Was not even worth the time to d/l a scanned version of it.

I like some of Alan Moore's work but this sounds like he is just trying to push the envelope a bit too far. I always find it interesting how some artists mistake questionable sexual behavior as art. It doesn't seem to take a lot of courage or creativity in my mind to put characters someone else created in sexual situations. Isn't that what alot of people who write fan fiction or slash fiction do?
