King Kong would be fun, but it doesn't quite seem to be very Alan Moore. And I don't think that it quite works with Dr. Moreau, with his "civilizing" anthropomorphy. Rupert and the Wind in the Willows cats, Jemima Puddlueduck (that was her, right?); these seem to follow from the ani-men of Wells' novel. King Kong doesn't, as he wasn't anthropomorphized. He was a monkey, he was anthropomorphic as all apes are, but not in the way Peter Rabbit is. Does that make sense? Maybe I need to refine that statement, but I'm not sure how.
Also not quite a snug fit, but perhaps more Moore, what about Dagon? Publication time frame is off, but he is an Old One, right? Moore likes Lovecraft. It would fit the feel of the title.
Oh fuck. Even better. Cthulu himself. Way deviates from my argument against King Kong, but rad. |
