Subject: [OTL]: HellsX: Notes and Disclaimers Date: Thu, 22 Jul 2004 05:09:58 -0700 (PDT) From: D Benway HellsX: Notes Produced by Benway [d_benway@yahoo.com] Forcibly corrected by Sevenall and KK Phillips. Inspirations: A cartoon from Gary Larson, in which a couple confront a witch in their kitchen. "Let me get this straight," says the husband. "We paid you to babysit the kids, but instead you cooked and ate them?" Lots and lots of Stereolab and Blur. Masters of Death, by Richard Rhodes. Certain things read between 2001 and 2002 in the Guardian, the Globe and Mail, the New York Review of Books, and the London Review of Books. Several webpages written by raving anorectics who encourage each other by quoting celebrity BMIs and providing helpful hints re: starving oneself to death. Hellsing, an anime. The comics Uncanny X-Men, The Avengers, Ultimate X-Men, The Ultimates, Birds of Prey, Young Justice, Batgirl, Robin, Catwoman, and Batman. The TV shows Smallville, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the X-Files, and Mr. Rogers Neighbourhood. Numerous characters and one speech have been borrowed from the above for not-for-profit use. Warnings: This story is a horror. If it does not disturb you, you need Help. Final Note: This was 99% complete in late 2002.
