Grant Morrison has stated that the hero of the title story was the major inspiration for the character of Gideon Stargrave.
gollark: It seems to be transparent if I *play* it, just not as the thumbnail.
gollark: I managed to compress it even better, but it still has a white background.
gollark: It has a white background because... of the video codec, I suppose? I remember that some codec supports alpha channels so I can encode it differently.
gollark: It's an mp4 because lossy video codecs are better than gifs for, er, videos.
gollark: Well, that's weird. It plays fine in `ffplay`, but not the browser.
