    But “Mother Jones” writers would never read anything so plebeian as comic books, so of course all they know about it is the movie…

    That’s Tutankhamun’s death mask, not the Sphinx.

      Ha! Derek, you are SO right! Here I was so consumed with making the minor correction of Mother Jones (that the Guy Fawkes image originates with the “V for Vendetta” graphic novel, not the movie), that I totally missed the BIG mistake. That is not the Sphinx, but probably Tutankhamen’s death mask. Nice catch.

    That reminds me of an incident in my LCS a few months ago. A teenaged girl started squeeling with glee and her father rushed over, asked “What? What?!” and she said “They have comics based on Scott Pilgrim! I am so into him since I saw his movie”.

    Not that I’m saying Mother Jones writers have the same cultural awareness as 14 year old girls…
